So, I learned today that the Japanese scientist who was one of the winnters of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7658945.stm) went to Sasebo Minami High School.
Also, I spent class yesterday and today teaching tongue twisters like "she sells seashells" and "Peter Piper" to the students. I also taught one of the senseis "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck" too. In return she taught me one of the easier Japanese tongue twisters: aka (ah kuh) pyjama (pee jah mah) ao (ah oh) pyjama cha pyjama or red pyjamas, blue pyjamas, brown pyjamas. I also found more here: http://www.uebersetzung.at/twister/ja.htm#T1.
