More Jajas

My Spanish teacher (S.C.) was reading off English words she wanted us to say in Spanish:

S.C.: "To be born."
Class: "Nacer."
S.C.: "To hate."
Class: "Odiar."
S.C.: "To have good babies."
[Brief confusion, followed by an uproar of laughter]
S.C.: "O! 'To have a good/bad time'! I need my glasses!"

[Later]
S.C.: "Quieren ir a la casa?" [You want to go home?]
Class: "Sí." [Yes]
S.C.: "Pues no." [Well no.]

So mean. But hilarious. The class deserves to be teased like that (everyone always complains and says rude and annoying things).

Spanish Got Dirty

I'd never laughed so hard in a Spanish class before today.

Girl (yes--the same funny "Girl"): "How do you say 'to shave your legs'?"
Girl 2: "You shave every day?"
Girl: "I shave EVERYTHING."

Instructor: "What is [Paco or some other Spanish name she made up for this question] doing?"
Class (in Spanish): "Taking a shower."
Instructor: "Bien. And what is in his hand?"
[Class hesitates]
Girl: "WHAT?!?!!!"
*The answer was "soap," by the way. lol

This one page in our textbook has drawings of people doing various things while getting ready to leave in the morning and sleep at night, and one of the female cartoon's eyes looked awful. I guess the artist was trying to make her look tired, but she looked as if she had a black eye. I'll post a picture of it so you can see. When the teacher asked us what the female cartoon does at night, someone automatically said, "She gets into fights." So hilarious. I think you just had to be there.

This blog is turning into my online GHAD (Get Happy Already, Dammit!) book. Maybe I'll move some of the things from my actual GHAD book to this site. A GHAD book, by the way, is pretty much a book that makes you happy when you're in a bad mood. Mine's full of inside jokes, friends' food preferences (yes...I do pay attention to this lol), pictures, old notes from friends, etc.

I like this commercial (and the other Zespri Gold commercials) because of Kenji Sakaguchi.

I Like My Spanish Class

[Girl walks into class at 8am]
Girl: "Yo early yo."

Girl: "Crap!"
Profesora: "How do you say 'crap' in Spanish?"
Girl: "Crapo."

Girl: "I've taken Spanish 12 times."
[Class laughs]
Girl: "Okay...maybe not 12. Six."

Girl: "How do you say, 'to rollerblade' [or something like that; I can't remember]? Isn't it something like 'montar a montaña'?"

"Girl" is always the same person.
