Yesterday 9/27/09: Hannah and I got to go the Transport college all by ourselves and teach. Erin was suppose to at the Co-op college but she has to get registered so she had to cancel her class. So Hannah and I were left to teach, poor kids. We managed to get on the right bus and were even early. It was a new class of kids so we got to go through all the introductions which took up time. The only problem was that the class was an hour and twenty minutes long! So after introductions thank goodness some asked about holidays. They asked mainly about Halloween but to take up time we told about every single one of our holidays. It was a great opportunity to bring in Christ like when explaining about Christmas and Easter. They also learned about 4th of July and even Veteran's Day. I never realized how some of the things we do at holidays is quite ridiculous till I had to explain in to someone. Like at Easter with the Easter bunny, I mean really! But we finally made it through the class. We met Erin back at the apartment and she had a rough morning with getting registered. That afternoon we had a meeting with Vova to discuss what we were going to teach in the English club on Wednesday. In the evening the church has SMS meetings which are like our youth meetings. Erin had to get one more thing taken care for her registration and had to walk down a creepy street so I went with her and then we met Hannah at SMS. Hannah and I get to look forward to being registered in April. Yep, in April I will become an alien, congratulations Mom. But SMS went really well and there was a large crowd. There is a muslim boy from north Africa, "Steven", who Erin says comes to SMS every week. Please pray for him because God is most certainly working in his life.

Laundry: We put a very tiny load into an extremely tiny washer and then hang it on a line that is over my head on the enclosed balcony. The washers here have an extreme spin cycle that ones in the states don't so clothes dry fast once on the line.
