Student Journals

Well, it is that time of the year and I am back to checking papers. In this case, specifically the journals from my 2nd year English elective class. When I first did this, I would have to stop every few pages because it was hard to take so much laughter. After being in Japan for a while though, I barely even realize it's funny anymore. I have a small stack in front of me right now though, and I decided that I should quickly write down to my blog any funny ones I find.

Note that this is not an anthology or "best of the best" post, just a real look at what a normal stack of 15 journals would have in it. I will not exaggerate, reword, edit, censor, or change in any way the words that I see. In the interests of time of course, I will only past sentences that have at least some glimmer of humor. Remember though that this is about 15 journals with about 1-3 sentences per journal written. I will post the journal number as well. There won't be that much material. So without further ado:

Translator's Note: "Birugeitsu" means Bill Gates

Question: Who do you want to be like?

1. I want to be like a maid cafe.
2. I want to be like sister. The reason is that it is terrible anything can be done. I want also to hold out like the elder sister.
4. I want to be like "Birugeitsu". He have a lot of many. And he made "windows". He is exciting. So I want to be like he.
7. I like taking a photographer.
13. I want to be like cat. Cat is a No. 1! like.

That is it. I know, not that great. I will try to do a best of the best at some later point, perhaps. I hope this just gave you a basic idea of what one small stack of papers is like.
