Not much has changed...

since last time I updated. I went into ILA today to plan some lessons and ended up doing little to no lesson planning. I made photocopies of the things I'm supposed to cover and brought the text books home, under the guise of working from home, but I'm pretty sure that's quickly going to degenerate into watching movies, reading, and napping - followed by panic Tuesday afternoon a few hours before my lesson. Ah well, hopefully I'll be able to pull something together today or tomorrow.

I really haven't done a whole lot, apart from sitting in my room gearing up to teach. I've made friends with the lady that has the fruit stand on the alley my street is off of. She's located right across from the lady I buy my banh mi from some mornings. The other day I was buying pineapple from the fruit stand lady, and the banh mi lady was talking to her (they're friends, or possibly related), and the banh mi lady recognized me, and gestured and asked if I wanted a banh mi. In my two visits to each of them, I've become a regular with both!

I've been doing a bit more exploring with the new teachers - mostly discovering new restaurants (last night we went to a really good Indian restaurant). This morning Marleen and I went to Pho 24 before going into school - it's basically fast food pho, but really good, cheap, and there's one right across the street from ILA.

Anyways, I'm off to hopefully plan at least one of my lessons that I have coming up (read: take a nap)....I'll try to lead a more interesting life here so that I have more to write about...
