We hosted a Japanese girl for the past two weeks. It was a huge joy and pleasure.
Tonight we celebrated and watched her graduate from the ESL program. The 70 students were in tears and very emotional to say goodbye to their new Canadian families. They sang and danced and showed us their projects and some had traditional dress on it was wonderful. The only problem is the 2 women in front of us. Blonde hair, 30's one in black top one in white top with sunglasses on your heads. TALKING THROUGH THE WHOLE CEREMONY... yeah.. boyfriends working with the class maybe? ESL teachers perhaps? you HAD to be there? There's no way you were host mama's or you would have shown respect to these girls and all their hard work. To their teachers, to the volunteers. What a shame we had to hear about your personal crap throughout the entire ceremony. NO, we couldn't move because our host child kept her eye on us the entire time and we didn't want to upset her if she looked up and couldn't see us. YES, we wanted to tell you to shut up but you couldn't hear us over your own voices. Next time stay at home and wait for your hard working boyfriends' possibly husbands to complete their journey and talk all you want. You ruined our night but we'll never tell our girl that. You've been SPOTTED and HEARD....
