Costume party

The 10th Graders organize a good-bye party for the graduating class every year. It was a costume party. I went as a cowgirl.
Daniel and I are the highschool English Teachers. He went as a rapper.

It started to rain a little during our service but thankfully not too much.





I've had a too busy weekend. Friday night was a "Good-bye party" for the 11th graders. Every year the 10th graders host a party for the 11th graders. 11th Grade is the last grade here. I spent Thursday night getting my costume together. Friday after school I helped my friend Lau (assistent to the secretary) get her costume together. Friday evening was the party. We ate carne asada (grilled meat). Saturday afternoon I went to another birthday party from two girls from church. We had carne asada. Saturday night I went to another birthday party of a friend and we had carne asada. Today Sunday we had a combined service in a park for Reformation Day. I have papers to grade, and homework to do from my Spanish class. I want to take a nap but instead I'm uploading photos because my card is full. Tonight a friend is going to help me with direct and indirect pronouns which I can't miss because they're killin' me. ;)

This Week

Hello Friends,

I thought I'd write a brief update about my week.
Sunday I got over to the Green's at 9 and ride in the church bus up to the church. We have Sunday school from 9:30 until 10:30. I "teach" the 2-3 year old classes. I have five kids in my class. We talk a short break and our service starts about 10:40. Usually the service ends about 12. After church I often go to the Greens for lunch after church. Sometimes I go home sometimes I stay there all day. At 5 we usually get together with a few people and play cards and eat dinner at the Greens.
Mondays we have staff devotions at 6:30. My first class is at 7 it is a double period elective English conversation class. I have classes until 1. I started taking a Spanish class a couple of weeks ago. On Monday afternoon-es until 11:30 and finish at 2:30 and then I tutor. On Fridays. I have class from 7-12:20 and then Spanish class in San Jose from 2-5.
A couple months ago the Lammaes moved here. Nick is working with CLIR. Rosie is scheduled to have a c-section tonight. I didn't have class today and right now I am babysitting for their two girls. I am going to be spending the night with them. It is pouring rain right now and has been all day. The girls are watching "Milo and Otis" for the first time. They are 4 & 5 years old and the perfect age to watch it. A was sitting on my lap crying because they got lost and then later running around the house yelling about the kittens and puppies.
That's my week, kind of. Usually on Saturdays I do my shopping and chores and try to do something fun too.
