Happy hump day!

Is the week already almost half over?! Our group had an Elementary lesson yesterday- the only problem was, it was a national holiday (the fall of Communism, I believe) and we only had one student show up! (who was far more elementary than we had expected.) So the first three girls had to seriously modify their plans, and I ended up teaching them, pretending to be students! (all of this observed to count towards our certification.) Were we ever ready for that day to be over! Today I had my last one-on-one tutoring session (I'm going to miss her! She is so sweet.) and now I'm finishing up some lesson plans with some people at the coffee shop... We found a place that sells burcak (sweet, partially fermented wine that tastes like juice) just across from us in the mall here (yes, we're in a huge mall.. Prague is way more "modern" than you might expect!)

Anyhow, so burcak + lesson planning in coffee shop and I'm hoping to get some gnocchi in a bit when we meet up w/ the rest of the TEFLers at the pub. That's life right now... not terribly exciting, but everyday we chat about all the weekend trips we're going to take when this is over! And we're qualified! Not sure if I mentioned this yet, but I'm signing a lease on my apartment here through June! I find it slightly ironic that I haven't even signed a lease this long in my real life (since college, ha, you know.."real" life!) and I'm doing it in a foreign country. C'est la vie!
