Speaking of school fun, next week winter vacation begins. I get to use cultural furlough from the 26th on, so that combined with the holidays means I only need to use one day of paid leave for a glorious two weeks paid vacation. I went and filled out all the paperwork for this break monday, but I didn't have a chance to tell the vice prinicipal or the principal of my base school about it; they were in a meeting at the time. No big deal, right?
So today I tell the (bitch) vice principal that I'm going to be gone until January seventh. I get a "what? What vacation?!" response followed by a "you're so full of shit" look when I say that ALTs get special leave. I tell her to go talk to the office lady (who speaks better English than the teachers do) about it; she got all the paperwork monday. The vice principal rushes in there, eager to shut me down. She comes back a minute later with a defeated look on her face. I think the office and principal's seals on the papers probably did it. "Yes, I understand. You DO get cultural furlough." OWNED, bitch. Now she's just going to have to give shit to the other teachers that will be forced to come in and sit on their asses doing nothing.
You're lucky. I've got a 19 year old guy going after me 
I feel a lot better all of a sudden.
Lyte, I'd castrate him then make him your platonic crime fighting side kick, they will write mangas about you!
It's questionable if there's anything that could even be castrated.
Well, one of my students keeps saying to me in the middle of class 'You look really cool!' and stares at me
I get that sometimes. It's usually either genuine (They love my stylish J-glasses and my haircut) or obvious sarcasm. This one kid will always say "You are SOOOOO cool!!" when he's being a little shit and I walk over to him. I'm impressed cuz I know he didn't learn that in school.
