3 All Star Teachers and Me

Orientation. Learning all about teaching. I confess, after sitting and watching three dynamic teachers get up and present lessons (they were so good, they got me excited about the lessons(I tied Chris with the most stars during the last lecture)), I can't help but fear that perhaps my kids won't like me. Being not-so-high-energy as I am. Maybe if I drink a lot of coffee...

But I'm not terribly afraid. I mean I won't lose any sleep over it. In fact I'm suddenly very heavy eyed. But I think we're going out on the town. The other teachers and I. One Canadian, one Kiwi, and another American. I don't want to be out too late.

Korean food round 2: Meat in soup. Delicious. Perhaps I enjoyed it too much. One of the orientation leaders commented afterward about how much I enjoyed it. Hey, it was good.

haha.
hope you're having fun out right now. i guess it's 11:30 pm, thursday, and it's only 8:30 am here. so is thursday any good, mr. continuous time-traveler? or should i just go back to bed?

So glad you got there safely! Looking forward to trying to keep up with you daily. Neat story about your 15-hour Chinese friend. I'm getting excited about flying up to Colorado tomorrow!!! This time tomorrow, Anna and I will be there, with another 2 hours to wait in the airport for Ross's flight to come in. And, Nathan, I think you'll be a great teacher. When is your first day? ~Rebecca
