Teacher, it's cold!

I am not the best gauge of temperature right now. I'm usually hot, especially when my hair is down. But Koreans are especially cold. I think they have zero body fat. They're also super opposed to A/C and fans. They only resort to it when the heat becomes unbearable, which for them is MUCH HIGHER than it is for me. But like I said, I'm not the best gauge right now....I'm always hot. There's even been a few times where Taylor has been cold. But not me. Not ever. Haha.

Anyway...here's a recent conversation with one of my [favorite] students. He doesn't speak English well at all, but he's hilarious.

Daniel: Teacher! I cold.
Me: Well, finish your worksheet and I will turn off the air conditioning. (Kind of a manipulative ploy on my part because he's EXTREMELY slow and I knew he would never finish in time for class to be over)
Daniel: Aagggghhhh I'm angry!! (but not really). It's not Christmas.
Me: I'm hot! Baby is hot!
Daniel: Teacher is Eskimo. Baby is Eskimo.
Me: Okay, do the worksheet and I'll turn it off.
Daniel: But turn off, then teacher baby is angry.

then he started (dramatically) blowing on his hands as if they were too frozen to even write.

Sheesh.
