New Semester

yeeeaaa! The new school term has started, and everything is all excited, especially my students...because they're Japanese...and all mental (but in such an awesome way...almost as awesome as me...but not quite)

let the (linguistic) games begin!

First Day
*New Student's nametag falls off his desk*
New Student: "oh!....ouch.....oh my god"
this student has clearly been attending after school English classes...I don't seem remember "oh my god" being in any of the textbooks...now this is what we call communication...what a champ!

Teacher: "Are you sleepy?"
Student: "Yes."
Teacher: "Why? Why are you sleepy?"
Student: "I'm-uuh...because-uuh...growing"
Teacher: "Fuckin eh!"
*note: the Teacher is becoming rather bold in the classroom at this point
