As I was baggin my groceries (you bag your own groceries over here), the student came out of nowhere and handed me an icecream cone. Nice.

Unrelated to the kindness of the student...
Isn't it funny that some of our most altruistic desires are simultaneously our most selfish ones?
I can honestly say I don't know what I would do without you! Get yourself an icecream and think of me. We will be camping for the next several days on the Salt and Greys rivers in West. wy. Go to Google Earth, download it and see where we are!
ReplyDeleteLove you,
Shouldn't have said that...right?
I wonder what your mothers in the US will say when their children are praised by others? Most Japanese mothers try to talk about bad things about their kids even in front of them, right? 謙遜（kenson ) suru,,desho? I dislike it... mirai
ReplyDeleteWell, Western parents tend to live through their children vicariously. So they often praise their child in front of other people, but pressure their child to perform when they talk to each other in the home. Luckily, I didn't really give my parents too much to complain about at home, at least school-wise...
ReplyDeleteHey mom: I tell my students about dad fishing on the salt river every time I teach a new batch of students and introduce myself.
Oh! That is what I often see American family on movies! mirai
ReplyDeleteAwwwww....
ReplyDeletehow nice.
But I wish that people could bag their own groceries here in the States. Lazy lazy lazy...
