my students

...are better than the rest of the school. well, before this week i thought that my students were little ****s! i thought they were rude, and talked too much, and thought they didn't have much respect for me. but then i had to proctor tests for other classes/grades, and i have a new found love/respect for my classes. it's hard to explain i guess.

oh, and i was talking to my little buddy, Angelo, and we were chatting in the teacher's pyote (i have no idea how to spell that). and then my students finished taking their English test and came up to chat with me too. and Angelo noted how they move in big groups. and i realized he was right. anytime my students come up to talk to me they move in clusters. i told Angelo that my kids are like sheep. and we both had a good laugh about that.

i also gave Angelo a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird. that is what he would read if he were in the states cause he's in the equivalent of 9th grade. and he also asked me if i had any books that he could borrow. so i hope he likes it and is able to understand it.

and tomorrow morning, i am going to attempt to wake up early and go to the orphanage and play volleyball with the kids and some of my students! i am looking forward to it! should be fun.
