another boring post.................

After class, I sat down at my desk to find an orange and sweet, sticky rice cakes on my desk.
Some of the parents sent them over for all the teachers eat and enjoy.
How asian can you get?
Oranges and rice cakes?
Man, if this were America, I would be waiting for someone to say "ching, chong, chinaman" to me.
But, luckily, I'm in Korea.

You know what's crazy?
While I was in Italy, 2 people went "ching, ching, ching" to me.
I forgot where I was the first time... but, the second time I was touring around Bologna, telling a classmate that a couple weeks prior someone made those sounds at me.
Then, as if it were scripted, a old man at the side of the road said "ching ching" to me, too!!!
What the hell?
And, it wasn't even because he overheard my conversation either.

On my flight Italy, there was hella turbulence.
Like, I thought the O2 masks were gonna drop any second.
I wasn't scared.
I figured, if we die, we die.
If we don't, we don't.
So, I was just kinda chillin.
But, the lady next to me would grab my arm and say:
"Mama mia!"
I was gonna bust up laughing because I thought that Italians didn't really say that.
I thought it was some Mario & Luigi thing.

Awww... Man!!!
I have to teach my afterschool classes now.
It's hard teaching these kids because I see them all during regular classes, which means I can't repeat lessons.
So, lately I've been having them work on word searches.
I'm showing them a movie next week.
Harry Potter.
The longest damn movie out there.
Oh yeah!!!
