Table Tennis

The class I ate lunch with this week has a very funny situation happening in the room. All the legs of the chairs and desks have tennis balls stuck on them. It is a very amusing sight, but also really quite a good idea. It stops the legs from scraping on the wooden floor and scratching it, and also reduces a lot of classroom noise. Since kids are constantly moving, there is always one chair or another squeaking across the floor, but in this classroom it is relatively peaceful. I say relatively because this particular class has an odd mix of personalities that leads to a lot of tension between the kids. There is always someone fighting with someone and they often turn game time in English into a painful exercise by refusing to play with each other. The girls are the worst, they are always thinking up new ways to piss each other off, or be pissed off an alienate each other. Bloody tough world, being a kid.

Long weekend coming up. Monday off :) Not sure what I will be doing with my time yet. Maybe some dancing on Sunday night. Spanish class on Sunday morning. I do need to get a haircut still. Maybe I will sort that out. AND I have buy my return flight ticket! How exciting is that! I get the price of the ticket returned to me by my employers, but I have to sort it out myself to start with. Too bad they specified an economy ticket...
