Misunderstanding

Teacher: "Perry Sensei do you use colon?"

Me: ....Blank stare....

Teacher: "You know, C, O, L, O, N"

Me:...More blank stare trying to figure out why she is asking me about my colon, thats kind of personal....

*I hand her my Japanese/English dictionary, She looks up the word and points to it...
It says "perfume".*

Me: *Relived she isn't really asking about my bowel movements which Japanese people sometimes like to do* "OH! Cologne! Sometimes."

*Teacher then handed me a small bottle of Hermes perfume*

Teacher: "Present for you, I had two."

I love Japan
