euphoric, even ! wowzers.
had the first real breakthrough with my class tonight.
two weeks with a class of ten eighteen to thirty-something year olds, too ambitious, all wanting to walk before they can crawl.
two weeks of trial and error, and tonight's class was a success !
after timidly introducing my love for dreaming as tonight's topic, conversation was attacked enthusiastically from all directions! all the while using past simple tense to interrupt past continuous ! so proud of my little worker bees.
hooray ! spiked my energy levels through the roof.
never thought actually teaching people something could benefit someone so much. c'est
had further laughs after introducing the non-drinking-drinking game 'One Fat Hen'. needless to say, the word 'frolicking' can be easily misheard as something quite crass when paired with some excitement and a chinese accent.
walking home, listening to 'walk like an egyptian', completely forgot where i was and started havin' a little boogie half way home. the ladies at the local bakery are just going to have to deal with me dancing by if classes keep going this way.
a lot to learn still, but more on that later.
three days off for mid-autumn festival, when i'll have my first taster of guangzhou nightlife. couldn't begin to express the severity of my tequila craving. i cannot wait for this.
on another note:
pro of living alone: can walk around sans pantaloons
con of living alone: i had a conversation with a dishcloth today.
