(no subject)

First day of work. I came to a desk with a computer on it and was told: "Please use it. There's even internet."

I will try not to abuse it, but damn that makes my life happy for a while. (Not, of course, that I can get e-mail, but LJ is working just fine.)

And class is shaping up like this:

Tasaki-sensei: Introduce yourself to me, to Lisa-sensei, and to three or more of your friends.
Student: (in English) I don't. Have. Friends. :| *turns magazine page*
Me: *tries VERY VERY HARD not to laugh*

I hope this happens every day. Also, it might be that the quality of English out here is super awesome or they have a deal with the devil, but these kids are pretty damn good. And they TALK TO ME. Like, willingly. In Japanese/English mixes even. It's awesome. :D
