    There is a fair bit of language and... odd behaviour, but nothing you shouldn't be able to handle. So long as you're mature about it.

    Anyway, this is a series of editorials by an african-american who enrolled in the JET program. They're a little old, but certainly funny, and worth reading.

    Enjoy! :D

    This is an ongoing thing. Expect to see quite a bit more than when I posted it before.

    Still gold, too. :anime:

    "I am a Japanese Schoolteacher"

    A very amusing series of editorials by an American who worked as an assistant language teacher in Kyoto. There are some...interesting looks at Japanese culture contained within. An enjoyable read that I'm recommending to those who have the time.
