Teach hard and Play harder! ; )

Teaching went pretty well yesterday. I have to get next weeks plans 

done by tomorrow night. Excited about that. Last night was the most 

entertaining night so far since we have been here. We were gunna 

have a meeting but the head teacher lost her key and they haven't 

gotten another one for the girls on the other side yet so she didn't 

have notes. So we talked for a bit then Ashley brought ping pong 

paddles and balls so we went to practice. It got dark and we could 

barely see the ball. Then we all got a turn (the teachers). We would 

play until we got bored or whatever and then give someone the paddle. 

Then the kids were coming back from lessons and started playing with 

us. They were lining up and when they messed up their turn was over 

and they would get back in line. We couldn't understand them but 

when someone messed up they would say "game over for you"   Then we 

were asking ages but they kept lying so we never got a straight 

answer. They have a Chinese sign language for their numbers that we 

learned really quickly but it's hard to show like 22. Haha which is 

the head teachers age.  Hahahahaha that was fun! Then angel told 

them to go to their apartments because I think they were suppose to.

We then went to the little store here and they have the kids stand 

behind this gate but we can come back and look at all of their stuff 

either because we are teachers or because If we needed something we 

couldn't just ask them for it. Well, apparently more classes got out 

and tons of kids came. We had to stay back there until it cleared 

out a lot more because there were tons of people right up against 

the gate. Then we brought our goods back and tried them. Good 

stuff ;) like this chocolate that is 1 yuen (so reeeeally cheap) it 

is yummy! Anyway, that's about my life. Eating random stuff and 

hanging out and lessons. The other day at lunch, it was weird when 

the tofu was the best part of the meal.... Or this morning we didn't 

have rice pudding!!!! Whoa. Instead it was some noodles with 

mushrooms. Ate the noodles. And a tasteless roll (always have those 

for breakfast).
