and again: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!
moved this thursday. my appartment is fantabulous!!! much bigger than I expected, nice and new, right next to a big and cheap supermarket, 5 min walk to the subway, 1 stop from the school..simply smashing! I'll take some photos later this week and will post'em asap. Versifft it for today..at the moment \i can only get on the net about once a week, will try to set something up asap tho.
the school is a slightly different story: the last manager (moi: is it ok if i call you kikumi? she: err... moi: how should i call you? she: manager!) had some severe health problems (at least that's what they told me) and musta been a shitty organiser, as the whole admin system is a complete mess! All the old staff left and the employee who's been there for the longest is the head teacher, Atsuko: 6 months..it's up to us to fix the place up now. aren't they lucky they got such an orderly, systematic nd strutured workhorse like me? :D I'll do my best tho, haven't been this motivated for ages, so i better do something with that, eh? My students are great! most of'em anyway..some weirdos in there and some soooo shy they're hardly able to open their lipses but hopefully that'll change. once they'll know that i only bite when they say nothing it they should be holdin elabortate speeches in no time whatsoever..but seriously: these guys are great!! so' s the stuff, with the possible exception of the other foreign teacher, a lil dude from Memphis, Tenessee, hear, y'all? He's nice-ish but has some kind of motivational problem..aargh! everyone seems to like me, or at least does their best at pretending to do so and that' already half the, uhm, you know. what do you call it in english again? cake? anyways..
yeah, so i'm still as happy as a pig in shit and optimistic that it's gonna stay that way! lurve y'all, hear?
