Red sea?

I've been jumping to different classes for my jpnese classes the past months.. =p 
The class that I'm supposedly in, there are lots of students (polys/ JCs and even uni students).. only a small number of us are workers.. so, the class is v noisy and u can say very lively... XD.. The other class is the complete opposite... there is only 2 students there XD the rest are working adults =p

I liked both class, coz the first class is very "creative" in the sense, when the teacher asks to make sentences, the answers will be really crazy.. like "where would you like to go?" the answer will be like "hell", "afghanistan"... n stuff like tat, ofcoz, they're still young wad... so they are really really really imaginative.. whereas the other class, is really "adult" class XD and will give answer like "europe", "hawaii".... all the PROPER answers... XD 
Teachers-wise, the first class teacher likes to ask "close-ended" questions, like the answer is only 1 or two answers, whereas the 2nd class teacher likes to ask things like "what do you think of.....", "If you were in this kind of situation...."....
Oh ya.. the 2nd class is very quiet XD I think the total size of the class is 5-6 people... XD whereas the other class is 13-15 people =p  So in the smaller size, somehow u will "volunteer" urself to speak up more.. yup, the 1st class, the teacher ALWAYS need to call names, coz otherwise, people would be shouting out their answers like nobody's business XDXDXD
So it's really quite funny when you see the students from second class coming to OUR class for "make up" lessons, if they are unable to come to their class.... They'll be really like "lost" O_O and always seen to frown XDXDXD duh! it's so contrast!

Then.. The bad news came.... the teacher from the first class( the one im enrolled on), is going back to Japan... =( n she was also very sad that she was sobbing while explaining and (of course, being Japanese), saying sorry to all of us =(.... so,  we were discussing about the soubetsukai (farewell party for her)...
Since one of the girls are also going away for summer studies (but at least she'll be back to class after that), we decided to hold the party 3 weeks before her departure XD.... and it so happen that in class, there were 2 students from the Other class... so we were saying they could also join us if they want....
The two of them were asking whether i would be going, coz I was one of the "familiar" people with them since i crash their class most of the time XD... n i told them i may not go.. Then since one of the two also doesnt not want to go, the other one, naturally, doesnt want to go..
But, it so happen that I could go! So, that day, I went  to meet them, guess wad.. the two were there!!... of course they're like the "outsider" and if I were in their shoes, I dont think i'll go.... coz... well.. i dun know the people well and i duno the teacher well... so ya....If i were them, I wouldnt have gone..
And i applaud their courage for crossing the red sea and show up.. =D
As a result? they get really close to our class.. JUST because of that one dinner together outside class.. haha!  Oh as for me, I think I should also note it that I have done the right thing for going out with them... had a blast... talked alot with them, talked alot with the sensei... it was all fun and fun and fun =D

n yesterday, we took pictures coz again, one of the girl is leaving for summer studies... n u know wad? She was hugging the teacher and she was crying... n becoz of that, all of us turned our faces away... so tat we wont cry too =.=; so sad!!
Anyway, so we went home (to mrt) together and she was still tearing... like.. the tears just streamed down XD.. n some other classmates were behind us panting.. and said "why u cried!! sensei also cried leh!!!" then their eyes were also teary... oh man =.= such a sad night yesterday =s

N I was touched by the student from the other class.... only within well.. maybe 4 lessons together? Friendship could grow and sprouted just like that.... =D coz we both stayed in the east, after parting with the rest of the people, the student told me that this class is definitely gonna be missed........ 
Tho first time the student crashed the class, the feeling is "lame" and "oh my god are they all learning japanese at all? O_O".... the answer is, YES definitely, they are... through the lameness and obviously friendship with each other =D...... very sweet T__T;
Too bad the class is gonna close soon :( I hope the friendship stays forever =D
