Who here has married a student?

[novawhiz]

You get:

1 point if you married a someone that when to a 'English' school in Japan
1 point if they went to one of the 'big five' ( Nova, Aeon, Geos, Berlitz, Gaba)
1 point if they were taking lessons when you first met them
2 points if they were taking lessons at the same company you worked for
2 points if they went to the same school you taught at were in one of your classes
4 points if you started dating them while they were taking classes that you taught, you got busted for dating a student, and suffered some kind of repercussions at work

I only get two points.... how about you?

Since when is ECC not in the "big" list?

My wife studied at ECC (LJ's very own Sirwanksalot was one of her teachers so maybe he knows someone who banged her back in the day!?) and Linguaphone (now L1) but that was before I met her.

The Wazza had a bring a friend along campaign during my time and one of our friends (who was a Wazza student) dragged her along to surprise me in voice one night (which was a shitload of fun seeing as though voice was packed and only about 5 of the students knew we were dating).

So what does that work out to? 4 points?

Small world! Which branch, Meieki??? I was such a crap teacher back then. My apologies to Penelope.

BTW, I get a big fat goose egg. I've never been single in this country and that's a crying shame.

Yep, Meieki.

I'm happily married, but I am also glad that I came here single. Bringing a GF/wife to Japan is kinda like bringing a sandwich to a buffet.

No offense to all your GFs/wives, etc, of course.

Me too. I first came to Japan as a spring chicken on a working holiday, and actually it was where I fully broke myself in, lol.. Sure, id sorta fucked around and made third base before, but it wasnt till I started casually dating this travel agent chick who managed to get free rooms at one of those really expensive hotels in Shinjuku (might have been the Keio Plaza, cant quite remember) on like the 30th floor, where I did the full deed. Gotta say, with a view that high up in a hotel such as that, I certainly wont be forgetting my first time

And 0 for me as well - met my old lady at a Sakura House house party, while I was living there..
