daily hilarity

"pimples hold grudges. you pop them, they multiply."- me

kids can be so cute.
(during drama class facial expression acting activity)
teacher joe: "so imagine that you're at the beach. how do you feel? very relaxed right? like you're so cool."
student joy: "yeah when you go to the beach, you feel very relaxed.but when you come back, you feel worried because - you're black."

(both joe and i crack up and keep laughing for a good 10 seconds)
joe is laughing because he finds it funny how taiwanese people (esp. girls) are super afraid of becoming tan while caucasian people love getting tan. i'm laughing because it's funny how she says "you're black" as in "tanning" and not referring to a race. she definitely can't say that in the states but i think she's pretty safe here.
