Debitto

That's how Kelly's students said my name.

"Debitto, Debitto. Boyfriend-o?"

It was really cute. We played a little game where they got into groups and I asked them questions about me and they had to guess which one was true. Here's an example:

While Kelly held up this picture, I asked



"True or False. Colonel Sanders is my Grandfather."

It was a lot of fun, but the best part was how whenever we would tell them the right answer, the ones who got it right would celebrate like they had just won the Olympics, while the others would gasp, "Ohhhhh!!!" and then go off talking excitedly Japanese.

Oh, and after Kelly's boss introduced me ("Kelly-no boyfriend-o" or something like that) to the staffroom full of teachers, they all clapped as Kelly and I both walked away blushing a little.
