I believe it's the latter lol.

9/30/2008 12:12:31 AM

lol I think they meant "How old are you?" but people here do tend to say I look about 5 years older than I actually am.

ahh you know what's funny is I was supposed to hand out those worksheets in today's class but we ran out of time Tomorrow I'll be teaching three classes where I handout the question sheets, and it's at my super ghetto school so I'm sure they will be funny.

As a concilation prize, we play this game at the beginning of each class called "shiritori." The kids have to write a list of words with the first letter of the next word starting with the last letter of the previous word. One team had this list today:

"maple every years sexy what breast cup pennis sex time eggs sun new watermelon"

I guess at least they got back on track towards the end

10/20/2008 2:03:26 AM

ahahahha "what breast cup"....shit makes me lol!

10/20/2008 2:04:51 AM

I should roll in there and be the furious, foreign angry boyfriend.

For a lot of similar stories about teaching Japanese kids who have a bizarre fascination with body part size, I recommend this:

It's consolation prize.

Normarry, I wouldn't rag, but you're a fucking Engrish teacher. The reast you could do is teach these Japanese chirdren how to correctry sperr the words!

10/21/2008 9:25:49 AM

bttt...you said you were going to ask them questions

^^anyone click that and see if it was any good?

10/23/2008 12:41:44 AM

^^ yeah, because I and O are nowhere near each other on the keyboard

^ I misspoke, I'll be asking them on Monday I've read that link before. Some of his earlier stuff from when he was teaching is pretty funny.

10/23/2008 12:43:55 AM

^

...

Concilation vs. consolation is not a typo.

10/23/2008 12:49:22 AM

from this thread I've gathered it's OK to sexually harass your teacher in Japan?

I have a new respect for their culture

10/23/2008 12:52:08 AM

yeah, it pretty much is, especially if your teacher is foreign.

10/23/2008 12:54:16 AM

that would have made my life so much easier

I got kicked out of a class for that in middle school

10/23/2008 12:55:07 AM

hahahaha, yeah they don't kick kids out of class here. Up until 10th grade you're not even allowed to give them suspension or expel them.

10/23/2008 12:57:12 AM

what would be awesome is if i could find a few of these kids and give them questions to ask you

10/23/2008 12:58:03 AM

This thread makes me lol out loud

10/23/2008 12:59:26 AM

^ So you lolol?
