Random Thoughts
Well most of you might know I have a fairly interesting class to teach. News is that most of the interesting students has gone home. I now have the most interesting dynamic with 5 Japanese female students and 5 Cantonese speaking Hong Kong students all of whom are male.
The Japanese girls won't work with the Hong Kong boys and the Hong Kongers just won't work. They seem to think that class is for very loud discussion about something, my Cantonese exists of 2 words both of which I will not try to write here as I know one is bad and I suspect the other is two despite being assured that it only means clumsy.
At least now I only leave the class shaking my head, not wanting to hit it against a brick wall.
