The kids in my reading class are fascinated by Japanese.

Okay, it was hilarious today. We had an extra credit thing where we had to make a collage on a poster of things we find cool and interesting. So, of course, I put Japan/Japanese things on it. I also had on it 'O genki desu ka' in Kanji written on it. So, when I got to explaining that, I actually said it, and I taught them how to say it, and how to respond. then they were hooked. They asked me what else I knew, and I was literally standing in front of the class introducing myself and sayng "my spoon is too ig", "I love you", and "I am a _." for TEN MINUTES. I think they might be amused with my bilingual-ness. How 'bout you? xD

Sadly, since all the high schools and universities in my area offer Japanese classes, using Japanese tends to get you a "Meh, another Japanese student" reaction. It dazzles the local middle-aged citizens, though!

As far as I know around here, none of the schools offer Japanese as a foreign language -insert epic sad face here- So, when I had that on my poster the teacher was like "Say some biggrin " so. . . yeah xD I'm now a bit tortured about it but it's kinda fun, I can cuss at people without them knowing it :3
