endless week
June, the month with no holidays, flew by this year but now that we have reached July, things are crawling. This week feels endless. Maybe when today is over, things will be better (it being hump day and all), but tomorrow I have a whole day of sitting at school with no classes and I only have 2 on Friday so I don't think so.
Last week at Kane Elementary school I convinced them to let me do English in the pool. We played a few English games and a few "western" pool games like Marco Polo and Sharks and Fishies. It was awesome. Everyone, including me, had a great time! So.....I went back and asked Ikumo to let me do the same thing. This day is today and it's kinda gross looking out and I'm not in the mood anymore. Plus, unlike kane where we did one regular class and then two hours of pool, Ikumo scheduled me to teach 2nd period in the pool with 5th and 6th graders and then 3rd and 4th periods have regular classes. I don't know how they expect me to do a whole pool lesson in only one period and then dry off, get changed and teach two more classes in 10 minutes. Sigh. Can you tell I'm not in the mood for this week.
AND I start my "last days" at Elementary school NEXT WEEK! I need to get on these speeches!
AND I finished my book and it was amazing. It's so hard to start a new book when you really really loved the last one.
Okay, I'll stop complaining and go get dressed for work.

What was the book? I love recommendations.
How did today's pool lesson go?
Ellen, the book was Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
I just read that book about two weeks ago. Really interesting story line...had me quite teary-eyed and feeling nostalgic. Maybe it was just my mood. But a good book, nonetheless.
