A Rock Star Super Hero.

Playing with kids makes you feel like a rock star super hero. They love you for playing with them they flock to you screaming for their turn, hands in the air. If they were just a little bit bigger you could start a mosh pit. It's overwhelming at times how much attention they give you, and then there's the super hero part. As an adult you're obviously bigger and stronger then the kids. You can lift more, run faster, jump higher then them. You're like the million dollar man without the million dollars.

It's exciting to play and have fun with the kids every day at recess. I really enjoy playing tag with them, teaching them new games to play with each other, and giving piggy back rides to the little kids. The kids also love it when I take them by the hands and swing around in circles so that they can "fly." I don't like how dizzy that one makes me, but it's one of their favorites.

I'm thankful that the kids all seem to like me, and I definitely like them! I'm extremely lucky and glad to be here.

Valentines Day

Today I passed out awesome valentines day card that my parents sent me. The kids loved them. :)
Also I got to help set up a table full of goodies to pass out to the parents. A remarkably unremarkable day, but it was fun.

I used to think I was an overly-warm person, but now I don't think so. I am cold every single day at school. I just can't get warm unless I'm pressed against a radiator. It's ridiculous. I'm soooo ready for warm spring weather.

Spring Break

While the details are not all settled yet it looks like I'll be touring the UK for spring break. Carrie, another american girl named Kasha, and I are going to try and hit London, Edinburgh, and Dublin.
