Speech Contesto
Speech contest 2005-- of 4 junior highs, Adam's schools dominated. my other school. I'm not feeling the love from Kamogawa. Three read the exact same textbook excerpt of "I have a dream." One evening I ran into a speech contesto student from another junior high at the tiny local grocery store, and he followed me from section to section, yeling out questions in English. "MISS RACHEL! WHAT. DO. YOU. LIKE. FRUITS?" "MISS RACHEL. DO. YOU. KNOW... TOFU?" "WHAT. DO. YOU. LIKE. MILK?" And so forth.


The winning skit, about being polite on the train, with (of course) a cross-dressing boy on a keitai.


A skit about being polite to foreigners and vice-versa, with a foreigner named Jenn and (of course) cross-dressing students.

The boy on the left is the coolest kid in school...
... and now a close-up on his Hello Kitty sandals. Of course.

    Three things:
    1) I had a friend called Chubby at school. He was more fat than chubby but "Fat" would just have been vicious. And 2) My kids similarly did the "I have a dream" speech contest. I have a dream that one day original thought will hit Junior High Schools and 3).
