"Tsunami!"

There's a slightly mentally handicapped boy that comes with my fourth graders. Today, when it was time to leave, he said, "Sem (Korean for 'teacher'), I love you, bye bye."

This was a vast improvement over last week's parting, which was 'tsunami,' for some unknown reason, or the week's before, which was 'hello.' I really like that kid.

In other news, I'm giving into a fad diet. I'm brewing a pot of green tea each day at work and drinking it throughout the day. Gonna see if I can lose a few kilos (that's 2.2 pounds for all you uncivilized Americans).
