Like last year, I wasn't always as good at recording what my students said when they said it, but here are a few of the quotes that I managed to capture. I love that out of context some make no sense (although I'd argue that they didn't always make much sense in context ㅎㅎ). Others show a different perspective on things I've never questioned or thought about. And of course, some are just funny.

After asking me to figure out the meaning of a Korean text:
"Ms. Briard, you sound like google translate." Gr. 12, September
When the force of a students sneeze makes her bang her head into a table. Gr. 7, September
"[Do] you want to use my finger?" Gr. 12, October 7th
"I don't know whose phone that is but I touched it." Gr. 12, Oct 19th
"I don't like cucumbers."
"Why?" (me)
"They smell fishy." Gr 12, Nov 8th
"Can South Korea import jawbreakers?" Gr 12, Nov 18th
"Oh I like it."(Same student as above, about jawbreakers)
"It tastes like nothing." (2nd student)
"That's why I like it." Gr 12, Nov 18th
About finding a boyfriend:
"Try harder Ms. B. Or just kidnap one from Canada." Gr 12, Dec 16th
"I want to have some friends... someday. So that I can say hi, and talk, and show my chicken." Gr 12, Feb 26 (following she bursts into laughter)
Taking some students out for dinner, we round the corner and they see the ocean and palm trees:
In unison: "OOOOOOWAHHHHH!"
"THIS IS JEJU?!" Gr 10, Apr
When I knock on a student's door, instead of saying hello she ask, "Can mute people whistle?" Gr 12, Mar 5th
Me: "I'm Ms. B and you?"
Student: "I'm Fine, thank you." Then realizing I had not asked How are you? like she expected, she bursts into laughter. Gr 12, Date Un-recorded.
Student: "When I have English class in the morning, I take coffee." Grade 7, May 23rd
Me: "Really?"
Student: "But I still fall asleep."
"Ms. B these are my husbands." She looks at pictures of BTS and swoons. Grade 7, June 8th
Love and Hugs
