Visitor Approved

Kit Kat has to do a research project during her senior year in high school. She has decided to run some tests on students. Momoko is proving as assist by letting Kit Kat interview her students. Kit Kat's friend decided to do the same thing. Momoko is her mentor.

Today Kit Kat's friend went to school with Momoko. There she shall run some experiments on the kids. She got permission from the kids' parents. I think it might be some sort of memory test. Momoko said it was sad that Kit Kat's friend just sits in the classroom during lunch time. She does not go to the cafeteria with the other students. I told Momoko I could bring by a pizza at lunch time. My work sched is very flexible these days because I am working from home. Now Kit Kat's friend is very picky about what she eats a drinks. For example, she does not like any toppings other than cheese on her pizza. Luckily Pizza Hut has personal pan pizzas. I got one for Momoko and Kit Kat's friend.

Since school was in session when I arrived, I checked into the main office. Momoko must have warned them I was coming. They knew I was there to deliver pizza. The lady behind the desk reached out with a big sticker. I asked if I was supposed to put it on the food? She laughed and stuck it on my jacket. It was a school visitor badge. Aha.

I was smart when I got the food from Pizza Hut. I dented in the little RB tab on top of the drink for Kit Kat's friend. She likes Root Beer. Momoko goes for Lipton brisk rasberry tea. Don't want to mix up our orders. Luckily Pizza Hut puts a little sticker on the pizza boxes indicating the toppings on the pizza. Mission accomplished.

Interview Time

Kit Kat has slowed down her job search. We wanted her to get a job for the summer. It never materialized. Kit Kat thinks she might have a chance since students may have left their prior jobs to concentrate on school now.

Recently Kit Kat submitted a job application for a party store. You know the kind. They sell costumes, cards, balloons and such. She was very excited to get a call back from the manager at the store. Today Kit Kat went in for an interview. Let's hope she gets a call back for a job.

Momoko thought Kit Kat should dress up in some sort of costume, as the employees of the store do around Halloween. I thought that was a bad idea. You got to put forward a professional image when looking for a job. Luckily Kit Kat agreed and wore her best professional attire. Good luck Kit Kat. A part time job could come in handy methinks.

Back to School Night

Tonight was back to school night. That is when parents are invited to come to their children's schools. Momoko had to be at school to host back to school night for her students. I decided to go see Little Kat's teachers. My plan was to go to dinner early with Little Kat. Then we would head over to his school.

Unfortunately Little Kat did not come home from school very promptly. Then Momoko had some trouble getting her dinner prepared. That meant Little Kat and I had to pick up dinner for Momoko. This left no time for Little Kat and I to eat at a restaurant. We settled for some fast food.

When I got to back to school night, it was disturbing that Little Kat does not have a permanent home room teacher yet. They are still using a substitute. The actual teacher has been hired, but is still relocating to the area. I was disturbed that one of Little Kat's friends was running wild all night. The friend refused to stay with their parent through the night. Kids running wild I tell ya. Luckily there was no way Little Kat was going to pull any such nonsense with me. We both went to each of his teachers' classrooms. I met them all (except the one who has not started yet).
