As it was a solemn occasion (see earlier posts) I was expecting a quiet affair, I wasn't expecting virtually every teacher at school to, almost, constantly pour never ending amounts of sake for the leaving teachers. Oh and it was my job to lead the leaving teachers in a march around the room, a feat which I think I managed to mess up pretty well (twice).
Events of the evening...
Watching several of my teachers faces go very, very red
realising that my own face had gone as equally very very red.
One teacher collapsing in a drunken/sad heap during the final speeches.
During the second party (second parties are well known as even more of drunken affairs) One female teacher nudged me in the ribs and said of a passing waitress "she is very sexy yes?" Now I'm quite a modest guy and when one of my friends might do that I get a little embarrassed but to have a Japanese teacher do that is just plain... well weird.
Funniest conversation of the evening.
Being asked how many children I had by one of the P.E teachers I then asked him the same question, he answered ( in broken English) I have 1 boy and 2 girls and then said because he "has morning stand" I didn't really continue the conversation much after that as what else could you say?
Although I did teach him the term "morning glory" after all that's what I'm here for.
