Sewing Class
Today I prevailed upon one of the Home Economy teachers to give me help in sewing a blanket for my friend's soon-to-be one year old daughter. I wanted to give a gift that was something a little more special than a generic baby toy, which I'm sure they have a billion of. I remembered my own baby blanket and wanted to make one.
The problem was that I haven't sewn enough in my life to actually be able to put together something even as simple as a blanket. Horiguchi-sensei really helped me out and enabled me to make a pretty kickass (in a cute way) baby blanket.
I'm glad that in this country there are still plenty of people who are willing to help out instead of defaulting to "I'm busy." She saved the day!

I was just about to ask for a picture too.
Yeah, Japanese people can never not help out. I had to be careful even not to say, for example, "One day I'd like to see a baseball game live," because invariably someone would buy me tickets.
Heck, three cheers for the Japanese!
