Ops

Forgot to put the stuffed animal picture in my last post. PenPen the penguin did not get in the picture....


Kawaii!!

Today I was walking home from Mr. Max. There was a group of teenage girls getting off of their bikes. They watched as I passed. One said girl said," Hellro!" I, of course said hello back. They then said bye, I said good bye back. I  told them to  have a good day, the girls  said good dai......we all started giggling. They were SO excited to us English!

My place is coming together little by little

Ma couch

My bed. The tail hanging from my light. Not an animal there. 

 As far as work...I start with the kids tomorrow....I have been working my tail off everyday some nights until 7:30.I  even worked weekends and spring break to get to this day.....

I cut out 120 of theses...

                                                               to put them up here. the trunk was made by another teacher

Pix of the day

I ride by this everyday
                                                     

My Candy...Mari candy  
        This I have learned today:

Lacey is a form of Larissa which means cheerful

Also my b-day is on Easter this year. If I were still in Portland, I would have a drunken debaucherous, no god egg hunt.  The ladies would have to wear skimpy bunny costumes, I LOVE BUNNIES and boobs...so perfect.

Alas I am not in Portland.....In fact the slogan of my school here is......" The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction."     *Twitch*
