A couple of my middle school students, Apple and Laura (both girls) found out that I was from "near Chicago". I don't bother telling Koreans I'm from Wisconsin, cuz most of them have never heard of it. And of course most Korean women over the age of twelve seem to know that Chicago gave the world Oprah Winfrey.

APPLE: Teacher, have you ever met Oprah?

ME: No.

APPLE: Did you ever go to see her show?

ME: No.

LAURA: Why?

ME: I don't like Oprah.

LAURA: Why?

ME: Because she says men are evil.

(Awkward Pause.)

APPLE: But... teacher, men ARE evil.

LAURA: (Glaring at Apple) Don't SAYYYY! He'll give us bad grades.

I'm from Northern Illinois, and I just tell my students that I'm from Chicago, too.

One of my students found out that I'm from America. He said, "Have you (makes machine gun shooting gestures) lots of people?" I just looked at him, gave him a joking serious look and said, ". . . Not yet."

"People from Korea don't like wine because it is a warm country. People from cold countries like wine. Russians and Canadians really like wine."

After my birthday party on a Thursday, I went to work hungover for the first time (not a weekday drinker) and one of my students took a good sniff and said, "Teacher, you smell like my dad."

It wasn't a kid...but one of my mothers said, "Paris Hilton make six billion won a year to have party and make trouble." I thought that was pretty funny.

To be fair to the kid who said it's in America, there are a few towns there with that name.

To one of my younger girl students, she thought hard about this answer...

Me: What day is it today?
Student:Spider!


One of my students called another student stupid. As I was lecturing them on why not to do this another student chimed in...

Me: Nobody in this class calls anyone stupid.
Student: And no "*beep* You"
Me: Shocked Tim!
Student: Teacher I said "NO" *beep* you...
Me: Laughing

I had a word test with the word "blow" in my 5th grade class. They had to make a sentence using the word. Female student came out with the sentence: "I blow you" I had a good chuckle and thinking, if only she were one of my adult students! Laughing
