Palm Reading

A quick snippet from class 104:

After their speaking test today, two girls approached my desk.  They asked for my hand.  I reluctantly extended it because, really, how weird is that - "TeachAH!  Give us your hand!?".  They examined it for a little while, tracing the lines on my hand.  Right then and there, I knew this would be a delightful interaction.

Tracing the line where my middle finger connects to my hand, one girl said, "You marry handsome husband."  (I liked her fortune telling skills immediately.)

Tracing the line on my knuckle another girl said, "He will be very richEE man." (More brownie points here.)

Pressing the fatty part of my hand below my thumb and getting no color change, the first girl said, "Oh.  Gooood!"  "Why?" I asked.  After much conversing in Korean and looking back and forth and giggling at each other, they said, "We no know.  BlogUH say goooood."

Tracing my lifeline, they said, "You.  No short life.  No long life.  Sorry Teacher!" (Slight loss of brownie points here, but I dig their honesty...)

Last, they traced the line across the top of my palm.  They were very impressed by this one, saying, "Teacher.  Feelings.  Strong.  Many."  (Say whaaa?)  Then ,they said, "You.  Movie.  Watch.  Many cry."  Right on the money.  They know me too well.
