School, Food, Fun

In midst of writing my paper, I felt an urge to blog, so here I am.

Hi all!

Yesterday was a day of unexpected occurrences.  

I had planned to go to the preschoolers, teach the Ukrainian culture class, write the paper (that I am currently writing) have dinner with Kelly and go to church.

My lunch ended up being this at McDonalds. How's this camera on my new phone? Not so bad I'd say...

Basically, the school asked me to be a substitute for the 4th graders for the afternoon. It was very unexpected but of course I said yes! This was right before I left. I knew I had to document my first time officially instructing a class. We did some history, and English during the afternoon and went outside for a bit at the end. Dismissing them was a bit chaotic because I'm not familiar with the school procedures and "bus waves." They also asked me to teach an elective course on Ukrainian culture Friday mornings, so yesterday was the first day as well.

I was out of school by 3:30 and met up with Kelly at T.G.I. Fridays. I've been meaning to take her out to catch up, ask how her Mexico Trip was celebrate her belated birthday. I really like it there. I don't know why we don't go more often. We got fried mozzarella sticks as appetizers and this steak for the entree. I loved the garlic buttery sauce on it. This is only half the steak in this picture. Also, sweet potato fries are so good, it was my first time trying them.

This was our dessert :) Yes, it was good! We shared the meal because neither of us was really hungry but we ended up with left overs still.

We look quite different in a few short months.
