Awww....I love Sanjo Highschool sooo much!!! My first years (sophmores) are do dang rad!!! I hate that so many of them will loose all that pazaz and zest by the time they are seniors. Anyhoo Sanjo is awesome. No school will get you genk-ed up for the week like Sanjo. I totally love the classes, they participate, they are active and lively and their whole attitude make it so easy to teach. I can play and joke around with them and be goofy and they are goofy back! It's awesome. Plus they are amazing at English! Mainly because of their attitude and the fact that they try. They made up their own dialogs today with their classmates and they are soo funny. Some of them went kinda like this:

A."What's wrong?"
B."I miss my dog"
A."For how long?"
B."Since forever."
A."That's too bad, you should drink water."

(Now, don't think they don't know what they are saying they know very well because most of them are hams and love to make the rest of the class laugh!)

A."What's wrong?"
B."I'm homesick."
A."For how long?"
B."Since I was born"
A."That's too bad, you should go home."

I also love to go around the room as they work in groups and make up funny dialogs with them. It's the best. These are the kinds of kids that in language class would find out how to say. "The monkey is on fire", or "Bite the greasy rat". This is what makes learning other languages so humorous. I try it a little in Japanese and I always get the best reactions from the students. I wish my other schools where as genki as Sanjo. I love to be the goofy clown in class, but when no one else plays along you just feel like an idiot.

Plus at Sanjo I get the occasional student that yells out: "I love you." (To which of course I always reply by yelling back. "I love you too".)
