Guess who really didn't want to teach today?
Guess who ready to do the bare minimum and was only here because it was almost White Day and she wanted to see if any of her students had paid attention during the Valentine's Day lesson and had brought her chocolate or gifts?
If you guessed Yukari, good job! You get a gold star, and probably a warning not to get too cocky about it.
"So, sometimes," she announced, standing proudly in front of a TV screen with a remote control in her hand, "foreigners have a real hard time communicating even with each other in Japan! So much so that they sort of made a movie about it! So that's what we're going to do today, we're going to watch this movie and think about the effectiveness of knowing how to communicate in a foreign culture and then write an essay about that for next week!"
Essays that she was probably not going to read, so the important lesson here was just don't even bother.
"Any questions before we begin? No? Then get comfortable and don't let me catch you sleeping or else you'll have to write lines in katakana on the board as punishment!"
