Me gusta el sol.
I'm having a really good day today, so you all need to know about it.
I'm teaching a 4 1/2 year old Spanish and it's not easy at times. Obviously this is beginner-level for an itsy-bitsy girl, but, believe it or not, kids have different ways of learning too. Some might prefer unstructured talking and others thrive on well-directed tasks. Well, I think she likes the latter better, so I tried to make it more like pre-school and it worked! She wasn't bored and she had fun, there were no inefficient breaks... anyway, I left very happy. Teaching is satisfying. Not always.. but when you are successful, it's a great feeling.
So that went well. Then I come home and it turns out the temp agency found a job for me! It will be a few days a week for about 3 - 4 weeks. I will be vacation replacement for an administrative assistant. Perfect. Just what I had in mind.
Now I could go and watch some war on tv, that sounds like a nice passtime. Or maybe some military briefing? Or I could go debate whether it's ok to use nuclear weapons on your enemies.
Ah, the possibilities on a sunny day in the year 2003!
I wish you could teach my children Spanish!
