Diary of a Teacher.
This guy, an american, is working as a teacher in Japan for some exchange thing. This is his story. I have to say, this has gotten to be the funniest thing ever. And I'm bloody well staying the heck away from Japanese schools.  Quote However, out of the corner of my eye, I caught the ichinensei girl I mentioned above, now standing among the crowd of boys. Just as my eyesight caught her, she yelled out "Breasts!" Now having been sufficienly distracted by a 12 year old Japanese girl yelling "breasts!" at me, I lost my concentration and was beaten. The boys roared in surprise and revelation, and as I tried to explain that I'd been distracted, I turned to find the girl was nowhere to be found. It's actually a little disturbing to think that my life now includes a little Japanese girl who will randomly teleport into a place, yell "breasts!" at me, then teleport out as quickly as she came. Enjoy. I had a good laugh.  -------------------- "Judge not a man by his thoughts and words, but by the quality and quantity of liquor in his possession and the likelyhood of him sharing." |

Y'know, thats kinda' strange, I've either seen this guy posting on another forum, or his account is all to familiar. The guy (Who was posting on www.jref.com) explained the exact same thing, kids asking him 'Bigu Dikku' and them grabbing his privates.
... "Kancho Assassin" - Yeah, all too familiar, must be the same guy.  -------------------- Whether you take the doughnut hole as a blank space or as an entity unto itself is a purely metaphysical question and does not affect the taste of the doughnut one bit. http://slightly-bitter.blog.co.uk |

I read the first link about the kids trying to grab him.
I am so glad people don't do that kind of thing over here! Well... at least the majority of people don't anyway. It's shocking to say the least. It did make me laugh though! -------------------- 'Let that be a lesson to all oppressive vegetable sellers.' |

Haha.
Before I realized that I was getting married, going to Japan and teaching English was one of my goals in life. Talk about close shaves. -------------------- Veni, vidi, dormivi. |

Maybe I'm just tired and cranky this morning but I don't get it. None of his observations seem witty or clever. And you really have to wonder what makes a person like this take a position as a Japanese English teacher to begin with. Maybe he has a thing for little japanese girls. After all, a 12 year old saying the word breasts really is not that distracting.
Also. Cooking steak til there is no pink left is not the 'American way'. Edit I dunno if it got funnier as I got further in or I woke up a little, but I found a couple things amusing. Still it's certainly not that funny. This post has been edited by The Ancient on 19th May 2005 14:44 -------------------- "That Light has bestowed upon me the greatest black magic!" |

I blame it on the tiredness and crankyness. An account on the differnces between American schoolkids and Japanese school requires not to be witty OR funny, it's merely an observation, that just so happens to be amusing to a majority of readers. Besides, people goto to Japan to teach English for lots of reason. Some have a keen interest in the culture there, and being an English teacher is a easy ticket to live your dream. Some people, well, they have a dream of 1000's of Gaijin-loving Japanese girls hanging around in sleezy bars throwing themselves at your feet. And their not far off.
 Though I agree having rare steak is the American/English way. -------------------- Whether you take the doughnut hole as a blank space or as an entity unto itself is a purely metaphysical question and does not affect the taste of the doughnut one bit. http://slightly-bitter.blog.co.uk |

I thought it was pretty funny. I mean, you've really got to wonder why the hell Japanese kids go around poking eachother in the arse.
I'm still laughing about the Worst Kids telling him to treat women right. |
