I'm jealous of these kindergarteners



Kindergarteners at Woodstock Elementary in Portland are learning Mandarin Chinese as part of a government-sponsored initiative. The idea is to continue to offer Mandarin throughout their public school education, culminating in a phat college scholarship and a year abroad at Nanjing University! Lucky little booger-eaters. Kindergarten has come a long way from "Me Chinese, Me Play Joke, Me Put Pee Pee in Your Coke."
