Things..
I've almost been here a month now. I find that hard to believe. It doesn't feel like it.
A lot has happened, and I've found myself frusterated with a few things, but fine with others. For those of you who are unhappy that I complain too much, I'll remind you that my journal isn't forcefed to you, so you aren't required to read it. I will say this vaugely to avoid insulting anyone, but I know I've somehow done it anyway.
I had an interesting last few days, where I felt bored for some time, which surprised me greatly. I've made a friend, and that makes things much easier. Yiyi's daughter, Nanako, wants me to pick her up and carry her all the time. Things seem to have settled.
I'm still a bit lonely, but being online a lot has helped me. My family e-mails me all the time, and I recieve almost daily e-mails from my friend Adrienne.
I was a substitute teacher for an adult school about three days ago, and it's calmed me down a lot. I'm not frightened of teaching adults anymore. I also joined in with Yiyi's class. I don't think anything will be as hard as it was my first day.
Being a teacher is really rewarding. Scary sometimes (you try to explain the word 'everything'...) but really rewarding. Nana can now say 'hello, how are you', 'fine thank you', and 'whats wrong?' She mimicks me, and she knows more English than I know Taiwanese.
I really miss everyone. My mother is getting married again. I don't know what to say or think of that.
This entry is actually pretty non informative. I haven't done much besides relax and write lesson plans lately. Thats why there are so many pictures of just me and Even in my photo blog. We were hanging around in the school.
I'll post an entry about the wedding reception I'm going to tonight after I get home. This is the second one in two days.. I'm very curious as to how different or how much alike it will be.
Bye then,
-Chris
