CHIN?

Today was quite a fun one in school!

It rained rather heavily this morning so I had to take the bus to school. While walking from the bus stop to the school, a car ran past me and splashed a puddle of water on my work pants! Yikes!

Anyway something funny happened in class today. It was a first class with UT-sensei for a second-year class at KTHS today and as always we would start off with a self-introduction lesson. We had a game where teams race to write answers on the board, and one of the questions required the kids to spell 'CHINA'. However one of them spelt 'CHIN' instead and I tried to explain what it means in English. Rather than focusing on myself, I threw the question to UT-sensei by asking him, "So UT-sensei, what is a CHIN? Can you show us your CHIN?"

UT-sensei momentarily stunned for a moment with a face of confusion. Being KTHS, almost all of the students were male and they all had a mischievious winkle in their eyes. I thought he might not understand what I meant so I in the end took the question back and answered myself.

That was when it struck me.

In Japanese, CHIN means penis!

Gosh!

Tomorrow's a public holiday and I am wondering what I should do. Maybe I should start hunting for nice souvenirs to send home or something.
