Check one thing off the list of life goals

So, after school, I went with Kasuga-sensei to city hall because Kasuga-sensei had gotten a call to come by to help them translate some stuff into English.

Turns out they are having an earthquake drill the next week and wanted to have an english translation. Well, after helping Kasuga-sensei with the translation and making it sound all official, they figured they might as well have me record the message for them.

So now, when they put a city / district wide announcement over the disaster loudspeakers (basically Tornado sirens, but used for earthquakes) sometime next week, it's going to be announced in Japanese, then in English using my reading. So at roughly 7:30 am next Sunday morning, I'm going to hear my own voice blanketing the valley.

Pure Win.
