laughter is the best. period.

So I´ve been slacking off in the blog department but though it seems like nothing interesting happens I am incredibly busy and lots is going on. I´m just used to a lot of the things that at first seemed new and interesting. Anyway I figured a short post is better than none so here´s what happened today:

There was some seriously infectious laughter going through the school. First a 6th grader refered to all the boys in the class as ¨men¨and I couldn´t stop laughing. Then a 3rd grader fell in a drainage hole while we were doing a scavenger hunt. He was fine but man was it funny and the girl in that class, Estefani, has the most amazing laugh so it kind of took over. Someone in the 5th grade farted and, well, they all just about died laughing. Sometimes they are so preadolescent and other times they´re just kids. I thought one kids was going to wet himself he was laughing so hard. One of my 4th graders suggested ¨Rock A Mama¨ (Barrack Obama) as a famous person for our interviews and I made him repeat it 3 times just so I could laugh. But that´s what we do. They laugh at my Spanish and I laugh at their English. Hearing some of their pronunciation and grammar errors ("I like to eat my mother") I can only imagine what I sound like. At least we can all have a good laugh.
