So guys, since teaching, apparently I am the world's most hilarious comedian? I'll say or do something that I consider kindaaa funny, emphasis on the kinda, and the class of 50 students will be hootin and hollerin, which in turn makes me laugh. It's pretty fun.
But actually. We are still talking about restaurant terms, and one of the words is "kitchen". Many Thais commonly confuse "kitchen" and "chicken" so I made a tongue twister stating, " I ate a chicken in the kitchen!" What a time we had!
I know it is soooo corny, but times like that, when it is just me and my students in the class, connecting over humor, it is really really special, and I love them for it. Human connection goes sooooooo much deeper than language and race.
