Another week.......

Sometimes I forget to keep up on my blog and realize over a week has passed since I last wrote on here and wonder where the time goes. It hasnt been too eventful recently. The weather has warmed up a touch, but rains now instead of snow. So, now we not only have ice, but wet ice. Even better.
We just finished up a two day language training, which was actually pretty fun. And a great way to break up the monotony a bit. It consisted of Liz, Tara, my tutor Svetlana, and myself. Basically, we sat around from 10-4 and just talked about ourselves and different topics. It was great to get to know each other better, while working on our language and vocabulary. I volunatrily re-took our language test, just to see if any and how much improvement I have made in the 6 months at site. I feel that some progress has to be made, or at least with my confidence in speaking. We shall see.
I will be back at school as usual tomorrow and I ran into a few of my students outside of school and they want me to start an English Club, which I have been staunchly opposed to before, but relucatant ly agreed to try. This will take place Friday. I am not overly excited about it, mainly because I havent the slightest idea how to teach English, but it is something else to do. Plus, I will get to know my students a bit better outside of our usual class. I really enjoy seeing my kids outside of school, but it does not happen often since I live in such a big town, and I live far away from my school. So the kids in my neighborhood, attend a different school. This is both good and bad, but i think when the weather breaks, i will find some kids in school and set up some basketball or soccer games after school. I just really want to be outside again.
I am beginning to get more and more home sick, thinking of the things I usually do this time of year. But hopefully with the warm weather approaching, I will be busier and just more active than I have been. Plus, I really want to get back to running and to the weight room again. I think I will generally feel better. I have been slcking with new photos and I apologize. just havent been too much to take photos of.
Hard to believe, but we have our first spring break coming up in the first week of March. I have been looking forward to it for a few reasons. Mainly, it will start to be warmer out. Also, after this break, we have a month or so until our next break for Easter, then only about another month till school is out. I have been counting on the second half moving faster than the first and so far have been correct. But hope this finds you well, and not burried in snow. I love and miss you all.
