Last week, my week started at 4 PM on Monday and finished at 4PM the following day. I took the opportunity to get out of dodge and run around in Pau with other assistants as well as the teacher who escorted me around Paris. Cool!
I'm back at school awaiting the end of the week which marks the beginning of a two week vacation. Yay! My official return to the United States is now June 20th. See you then!
Today in one of my classes, my students spent 10 minutes describing the type of odor that comes from one of their classmates. 'He smell of cheese' or, 'Stand at 2 meters and your face become red, white, green, blue,' and, 'He and shower, not friends.' 'We are with him for two years now. We are (insert the French motion for 'had it up to here' which is more like our motion for 'better be quiet, the person you're badmouthing just walked in the room behind you'),' 'At first, we try to explain him, Take a shower!, but he not listen and change nothing.' I told them they were mean, but it was a good oportunity to teach them some expressions, not to mention hilarious to listen to them trying to articulate it in Engligh, so I let them go at it. I suggested maybe it was a medical problem and they should give him a break, but they insisted it was a simple not showering problem. Fortunately, this student was not in the room.
Today, I am going grocery shopping. HOOORAY. Yesterday, I topped my speghetti noodles with an egg.
