Okay, I've been slacking. I had every intention of writing at least one blog when I was stateside, but clearly that didn't happen. The two weeks in Louisville went by so fast and I was more concerned with spending time with my family than I was anything. I know I'm totally late on this one, but Happy 2011 to everyone! My Christmas break was absolutely wonderful. I had an extremely long travel day - 25 hours from the time I woke up in Madrid to the time I went to sleep in Louisville, but my reunion with my family was priceless. I loved not having anything to do for two weeks. I rested and spent as much time as possible with my family. It was a much-needed break. Naturally, it was too short and I hated leaving again. But I'll be back on July 1st until the end of August!
Work started on Monday and the kids have been nuts this week. I'm praying for a better week starting on Monday. The entire school has changed its schedule - here I just memorized last semester's schedule in November and I have to remember another one already! This time, I am teaching a regular English class to some third-graders, three days a week. I'm sure after next week I will love it - they were beyond nuts this week. Although come to think of it, we have spring-like temperatures, so maybe it's the change in air pressure. Ask any teacher and he/she will tell you that when the weather changes, the kids are off the charts! I also started classes at the university on Wednesday - I think I'm going to like my classes, especially Spanish. I have one of my favorite professors again for Spanish, so I'm really excited!
I'm looking forward to this year - 2010 was all about personal growth and doing what I wanted to do, so I can 't wait to continue it throughout 2011!
