Day 106 - Dancing and Drunk ALT
At work today, the grade 3 kids dragged me in their classroom with their teacher and decided to show me the dances they did for their sports day. They did about 3 different displays of dances that looked soooo neat. The teacher said she taught them one of the dances but they made up the other 2. Can you believe grade 3 children choreograph their own dance routine???? They then told me "hey, Deibu Sensei, it's your time to dance for us !!!". Woe be unto them who make this request... So I pretended as if my right leg was in pain and was hopping towards the door, because I am not a dancer at all. None of the members in my family are gifted in that regard. You have jokers, comedians, actors, lazy people and a few brilliant scholars in my family (both mom and dad's side) but no dancers, well except for my cousin who try a ting.

Anyway, they figured that nat a thing was wrong wid mi leg and I did entertain them and the teacher wid some foolishness; and if yuh eva see the kids following me do the foolishness, you would never stop laughing for the entire day. The thing is that they think it's fun and the teacher was like "WOOOOW, You are a great dancer, SUGOII"????? If I were ever to do these things in Jamaica and mek all my fren dem si mi ..... That would be the end of me showing my face anywhere again in Jamaica. Some people can't even imagine seeing me dance, it's unthinkable. The only persons I think ever saw me try a ting was my sister, my mom and probably 1 or 2 of my exes...
I then went home after work, then to soccer with the kids. This guy at the soccer practice told me he was shocked when he saw me in the Niimi newspaper. Several persons at my school today also told me that they saw me.
After soccer, I went to meet with most of the Niimi ALTs at a little restaurant, the same restaurant I went to on Days 12 and 41. Only 2 female ALTs weren't there; I don't think since I am here, there was ever a time when every single ALT met up together. This I think is the closest to it, because 5 of them which are all from JET will be leaving in August :( :( :( ... 2 of which has become very good friends to me. Darn, saying goodbye in any way or form can be very difficult. We did have fun at the restaurant/bar place and just chatted and ate for most of the time. The thing is that, too many of these guys smoke, which make my clothes smell like smoke afterward. Another thing that happened last night was one of the JET ALTs who is leaving in August got drunk and he was talking a whole lot of rubbish in a very loud tone.
Later people....
