2/26/09 - Today was a very busy day with 3 classes back to back. Our first class went well. All of the classes today are business classes so I am learning lots of new things! Our 10 AM class was horrible. There were three boys who would not stop acting up. The stuff they did was disrespectful and would never happen in our schools at home. If I could I would have sent them to the office or given so much homework to make their lives miserable! But we aren't exactly able to do that. We were just so surprised that college students were acting like they were 12! Erin asked one guy to move because we were splitting them up for an activity and he started begging not be moved! We were stunned! When a guest lecturer ask you to do something you do and it was moving to play game! Anyway our 11 class went so much better and we really like the students in that class. We then headed home for some rest before prayer meeting. We are feeling drained and Erin is starting to get sick.

2/27/09 - FRIDAY!!! We only had one class today. Ms. Margarita borrowed students from another class so we had an extremely full class! It went well, I did my lesson on animals. We then went home for rest and Erin's throat is getting worse. We had our second beginner's club tonight. We had about 10 come and they were mostly adults which is completely different from our intermediate class. So they come ready to learn and don't have to be entertained as much. We started spelling easy words and went over family members. Next week we start building sentences. Mom, you will be so proud I will most likely come back speaking better English!

2/28/09 - Erin is really not feeling well so Hannah went with me to teach the middle schoolers. It is something that I really enjoy, the girls are so sweet! We use Bible stories for them to read and translate. Then we go over their meaning so we are able to share about God. on the way home we stopped at our local baker to pick up dinner for all of us. We can't read the names so we just picked stuff and hoped for the best! Turned out we did an amazing job! I even ended up with a dessert that was like a beignet!

3/1/09 - It started snowing again. We have had snow on the ground since Feb. 15! Normal Sunday with church and all that. Erin stayed home to get some extra rest, she is feeling a bit better. Tonight the girls are putting on a special service for Men's Day. We had to perform to Be Our Guest. We felt like such idiots!!! Ok, first what we find funny they don't and what they find funny they don't. But they seemed to enjoy it. Erin sang the part while Hannah and I danced around like fools in the background. Afterwards we quickly left and went and got ice cream to wallow in our shame.
