Today was FULL of WIN.
I went to Mass with some of my students today. Always interesting going. We sung a variation of one of my favorite hymns. Good stuff. Was reminded to be a Good Samaritan. Haven't been doing so to my fullest potential as of late. Gotta get on that.
We ate at Good Taste Chinese Restaurant. I heart this name. Was told we were going to eat 點心. My soul leapt for joy. Then found out it was just a buffet, minus the dim sum. Still good nonetheless, a change from Panera bagels on the weekends. Them serving 番茄炒雞蛋(西紅柿炒雞蛋 for the Northerners...) totally made up for the fact it wasn't 點心.
Ate it with the Divas. Always an interesting bunch. The restaurants' owners' daughter was there. A 4 year old named Luna, SOOO cute. She passed out napkins to us and skipped all over the place. I think LS wanted to kidnap her like Madonna did that other child...
Free Slurpee Day! Enough said.
After our excursion to 7-11 we had our second bday surprise. Got him in the classroom.
JC, LS, and me each did a seminar for the cultural immersion part of the intensiveness that is Chinese Academy. JC=Chinese sports. LS=Chinese education. Me=Chinese beliefs/religions.
My seminar was the longest one, probably due to my tendency to ramble, going off on tangents, and I spent like daggone close to 2 months preparing for it. To make mine more bearable, refusing to let my students sleep during my lecture, and probably cuz I've become more of a jerk due to lack of sleep I forceably made my students get up after like 5-10 minute intervals. Hopefully these children learned something.
World Cup Final today.
We watched this all go down on the first floor of Shafer. Spain vs. the Netherlands with España winning in overtime. Every eye was glued to the screen. Crowds went wild, no less.
Helped VR with her laundry, who is still trying to recover from her bum ankle.
Rest of the day is a blur. That's it for now. So thankful for today.
