Chapter 52: "Sadly..."

I'm very slightly ashamed to say that I never learned how to play Crazy Eights. My sister and my dad knew, but I never played it. This is sad, I know.

What is even sadder is that I learned how today when my non-fluent Korean kids taught me.

And the most saddening thing: Why couldn't anybody just have told me that it's the same as Uno???


Quote from a student:

Me: "Hey Terry."
Terry: "Yes?"
Me: "Why don't you punch the girls in your class? You're in Tae Kwon Do." (Boy is wearing TKD uniform)
Terry: "I will go to jail."

Profound. Later that day, when I asked him for his homework, he showed it to me and said, "Here is the evidence. I am innocent." What a cute kid :-) And he's only 10!!
