Other Updates

To get a sense of how I'm feeling at the moment, I'll refer you to my April 3 All of 100 (http://allof100.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-i-feel-about-my-stomach.html), although what I have now is more intestinal and less enjoyable. That said, I think it's just passing through and hopefully I'll feel rosy again tomorrow while we head to camp.

Jory, Casey, and I are leaving about three hours before the kids so that we can set up a frisbee golf course at the camp! Somehow we have been dubbed "professional frisbeemen", so we will try to create a course very rapidly for the kids to enjoy throughout the week. For English lessons, I am working with the advanced group, Jory with the intermediate, and Casey with the false beginners. We have many fun and exciting games planned already, including an in-class snowball fight (because we're way cooler than your English teacher ever was).

An important update that I've been forgetting to give: I brought War and Peace to read on this trip because I only wanted to carry one book, and though Russian names can be difficult to distinguish, I have made progress. I am currently on page 525 of 1455! A short way into the read, however, I was incredibly disappointed to realize that pages 67-94 were missing - what a letdown! I pressed on, and surmised from the context that this section was completely filled with the description of a single dinner party. It is a great book though (great in the sense of it has colossal ambition and is capturing all these different aspects of life).

Not much else to write about at the moment. Everyone else is out on the town for the night, and I think I'll go lay down again. Have a good day everyone!
