My Class


Do I look like a giant in this picture? Well, I'm actually much taller than it appears. The boys in the back were all standing on their toes and attempting to push/pull me down at the same time.
Just to update everyone on the proposed picnic: turns out that the picnic was to leave at 7AM for an amusement park an hour or so away. Hien told me it was a bad idea since we'd have to get on the highway which isn't ideal for young motorbikers. With a little negotiation Hien managed to talk the class into going to karaoke instead. When they asked which I'd rather do I said, "Karaoke. This way we don't have to leave at 7AM." Linh, translating for the students then replyed, "Okay, you can karaoke at 10AM then." Apparently karaoke is a daytime, non drinking activity in HCMC. God help this place.

The girl in the front middle looks like the troublemaker to me. Keep an eye on her. Are you going to give them class ranks? I bet the guy to your left is the Karen Mintz of your class.
