This is a real story about a strange present.
The strangest present I've ever had must be a souvenir from a guy who was
my senior at university. He returned from his trip to Hawaii and soon sent me
a package. I remember it was a very light thing and couldn't guess what it would be.
I opened the plastic package. There was... a necklace of shells, a red bikini, an artificial
bougainvillea, and hula-skirt. It made me laugh and I was quite sure that I would never use them. However, I tried them on in my room in a flat after locking the door just in case. Immediately, I took them off and wondered what I should do with them.
In the end, I pinned them up on a wall of my room just like a lady wearing them - although they were not there for long, since after I jumped out of my bed in surprise by misunderstanding of a lady standing at the side of me in the middle of the night.
English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online. Teachers post regular items about teaching, learning tools, events in the school, their day to day experiences living & working in a foreign country. Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!
