Good morning and welcome to languages. I am Morpheus, Dream of the Endless. You may call me Dream.

Today I would like for us to get to know each other and talk about why we're here. Please take a few minutes to read the syllabus--if you have any questions about it, now's the time to ask. Then let's go around the room and introduce ourselves. Please also state why you're taking this class.


[ooc: rather than flood the comm with language classes, I'm going to have one general post for all classes and then comment groups for individual ones. Please comment with your class participation under the comment titled for your class.

Also I'm going to be at work all day and so will be in and out, mostly out. Will participate when I can.]

Languages of Asia

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Languages of Asia. This class will be a challenge for most of you: it's an entirely new way of speaking.

Uh, yeah. Jubilation Lee here. *waves to everybody else in the room*

I guess I'm in this class because, you know, there's Chinese and I'm Chinese ... I just thought it'd be cool. *shrugs*

Hi there. I'm Rory. That's so cool about you being Chinese and all...I wish I had some kind of culture association.

I guess I'm in this class because my entire life, my education has been incredibly...Westernized. Thought I'd get a different viewpoint.

*Parker smiles sweetly and condescendingly at you for this, but refrains from making any remarks*

*Rory smiles back, ignoring her intuition telling her that this girl is attempting to act superior.*

*glances at Jubilee's coat*

*flinches*

*ostentatiously looks away*

*makes a face* Hey, I like my coat. Yellow is so coming back into fashion.

Re: Languages of Asia

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Yellow is. Fireman's coats aren't. Unless you expect something to catch fire....

Re: Languages of Asia

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

Ladies. As you may recall from the syllabus, my first rule is respect enough. Enough fashion critiquing.

Re: Languages of Asia

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

_{Yes sir.}

*slumps in chair*

*glares and flicks fireworks into the air*

Between that and those two hotties who keep setting fire to things, I don't think expecting things to burst into flames around here is all that out there.

Re: Languages of Asia

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

*wearily* No fireworks in class, please. Save it for band practice.

"Aye, aye, captain." Jubilee smiles and salutes.

Ohayu-gozaimasu, sir.

*scans room, checks out other students' clothes, yawns, pulls out a nail file*

I'm Parker. I'm hoping to improve my Japanese, and supplement it with Chinese and Korean, so I'll be able to manage my family's resources in the Pacific Rim after college.

*snickers darkly, then quickly covers up with an overly sweet and helpful smile* that's ohayou, dear. if you need any assistance in japanese, feel free to ask me

*Ignores you, but brushes a stray hair off her desk with distaste*

Re: Languages of Asia

[yuuko-sama.livejournal.com]

*decides to keep an eye on this one...ufufufufufu....*

Re: Languages of Asia

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

We can discuss that later. Thank you for the offer.

Re: Languages of Asia

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

Please refrain from grooming yourself during class time, Ms. Parker.

*Gets mad, and is about to point a finger at yuuko, but then.... refrains. For some reason she really doesn't understand, it just seems like a bad idea to mouth off to the teacher*

Of course, sir. My apologies.

*watches other students calmly but feels no need to explain his presence at the moment*

*Listens respectfully to the teacher*
