Tuesday

Today is a warm day in March, it is weird to think that it is fall here and i can already tell that the days are gettig shorter. School is going full swing now, and i am keeping busy with that and also with planning and helping organize Holy Week, which for all of you who aren´t familiar, is a pretty big deal. But then again i guess salvation is.

So, i would to let you all in some of the interesting people that i are in my world here in Chile. I have a co-worker, a mother of a senior in high school, who came up to me a couple of weeks ago to show me pictures that she had taken at the WWE or (WWF not sure) show that weekend. She was disappointed though that she didn´t get a picture of Triple H. So after my original shock i was lead into a lengthy conversation about the athleticism and showmanship of fake wrestling.

Today, i was told by the man in charge of the school´s finances that i was working too much. I am contracted for 30 hours and i was working more. I am a volunteer. So i was told to work less because i was working is more than my imaginary contract allowed me too.

I am teaching the CHa CHa slide to my students. This, for those who don´t know was a hip hop like dance made popular in the 90´s. I am going to force them to dance to it, or they will not recieve participation ponts. To answer your question, this does actually have something to do with learning English. The excuses i used to get this cleared where building vocabulary and listening comprehension.
Well i hope you are well and i will try and get some pictures up of the school.

I just like the thought of you teaching kids to dance.
