Free Talking with John 2015-10-28

Lesson 1 - 19:00-20:00 - 1 Student

We spoke about Halloween, dressing up for Halloween parties and where Halloween came from. We talked about Halloween in theme parks such as Disneyland Tokyo and USJ. In London, the tower of London do a lot for Halloween and we talked about waxworks and Madam Tussaud's. From good wax works, we started talking about and bad wax works; wax models of people that do not look like them at all. We then discussed whether we go to tourist attractions that are near us, or only those that are far away, and helping lost tourists.

Lesson 2 - 20:00-21:00 - 2 Students.

I had been wearing a spider ring I found on the table, and asked the students if the had noticed; one of them had not. We talked about insects and if they liked them or not. We then talked about a recent news story of a Syrian boy living in an airport and if the students would like to live in an airport. We then spoke of other weird places that people have lived, such as a Japanese woman who lived for two years in a man's wardrobe. We then said how long we thought we could last in a wardrobe. Other places mentioned were the homeless people who live in Tennoji park, although the students thought they had all been moved away now. I explained about travelers in England: people who live in caravans and are considered a problem.
We then talked about a man who had been locked in a bookstore overnight and the places we would like to be locked in to for one night. We then talked about night time events and stay awakes to raise money for charity.
