"I am a Japanese Schoolteacher"

If you have ever taught in Japan, or lived in Japan, or worked with children... Go to this site!
Even if you meet none of the above qualifications, but you know how to laugh... Go to this site!
It's called "I am a Japanese Schoolteacher" and it is written by an American JET employee teaching in Kyoto. He's a bit more crass than I am (well, yesterday's blog set a new low) but I think one can still appreciate, understand and recognize his thoughts/feelings/observations. He's got some hilariously honest moments, even if they arn't always the nicest thing to say. I can't say that I agree with him 100% on his cynical observations, but then again, he has been here a lot LONGER than I have - and he works with 800 high-maintenance children, which could probably make anyone seriously cranky, so at least he's got a sense of humor about it!
