I know... I know I said every Sunday I would post and obviously I have already failed. But here we go for the last week. Once again school is no different, I think my kids are doing well and I am finally finding interesting ways to teach grammar. Have I mentioned I hate English. Chinese class is still going okay, my goal is to be able to have a simple conversation by the time I go home.
This weekend Hanna and I had more home visits. They were a good time. On Saturday we wnet with Ivy and her family, she is one of my 2B-1's. She is adorable. They took us to a farm where we checked out cows and fed them bottles and grass. Then the main event... I milked a cow!!! Then drank the milk!!!1 It was actually pretty good, just a little warm. Ivy did not want to do it because as she told Hanna and I the utters looked like a boy (with a gesture to the crotch area). Hanna thinks that her and Ivy can be friends outside of school, after that comment. Then we ate ice cream made from the cows at the farm. Then we went to lunch by our scool. It wasa ton of food. After that we went to Ivy's to play Wii, which lasted forever. But it was fun, Hanna and I were both getting tired when they asked if we wanted to stay for dinner. We said sure and ate pizza with them. It was way good. After which I had a coughing attack, since I have been sick. We are finally thinking we can go home, but then they ask if we want to watcha movie. Hanna asks if I am up for it so I say sure. We watched Slumdog Millionaire and did not get home till 9:30. It was a long day.
Then on Sunday Hanna and I went to Lugang with two of our students Ella and Minnie. They are our only two morning SPE's and so cute. They speak English amazingly. We first went with just Minnie, her mom, and cousin to the Folk Arts Museum, then we met up with Ella's family at a temple, where it was the goddess birthday so there were tons of people bringing gifts and eating food it was cool. Then we went to a park and fed the fish. Then ate lunch. After that we went to a historic shopping street where I saw on of my 2B-2's so that was funny. Hanna, the girls, and I all held hands and sang Christmas songs, we made quite a scene. After that we headed home, but I was having a killer migraine and was coughing...again. I had this really bad coughing fit that I couldn't stop so we had to stop and get me water, which helped a lot. We got home around 4:45. I then took a nap until 6:30ish. Then Rebeckah had some people over for dinner and Leslie, Hanna, and I went out to eat. I didn't feel good so I didn't eat. Well that was the week I had. And next weekend there will be 3 days of adventures to right about so stay tuned.
