Learning from a 7 year old
I went to school yesterday to do introductions. I met a little girl with great English and even better charades. I could completely have a conversation with her as long as you can act it out. She asked me if I wanted to play with her at recess on the swings with the rocking back and forth motion. Yes I said, before I even knew what I was doing. Mainly "yes" because I understood her and was proud.
So I sat with her at lunch and we practiced my Japanese vegetables. I was doing good until I took a bite of my rice. I heard a tiny little voice say "sensei" I looked over to see her motioning that I should put my bowl up to my face and shovel. Good thing I have a 7 year old looking after me.
As I left school that day all I heard was "see you Burrito sensei". Yeah that would be me.
