I've had an unprecedented amount of internet time this week. Fun update today. My 6 year old host "niece" finally said my name correctly today for the first time since I got here. She's been calling me "Elin" for 7 months and today she finally figured it out and proceed to prance around the house shouting "eRin, eRin, eRin." It was one of the moments about this year that I will treasure.
Classes are going well. I've finally taken control of the schedule so that is pretty regular everyday. We've been learning about illnesses and practicing a dialogue between Mr. Monkey and Dr. Mouse. In a word: adorable. We're still working on pronunciation And they are doing great with it. We're going to do some puppet performances next week as a project. Tomorrow we're having a baby shower at the school in the afternoon for one of the mothers in kindergarten. Should be interesting. They were making the desert today which consisted of strawberry jello in a plastic cup, topped with canned mixed fruit and a condensed milk/evaporated milk mixture. These people love their condensed milk. It comes in squeeze containers for christ sakes. I'll take lots of pictures tomorrow. I'm sure it will be an interesting experience.
