Having a cold

It is warmer here than in Canada - however, there hasn't been any heat for the last 2 weeks where the temperature was hovering around 4-10 degrees so it felt as though I was in the fridge all day. Well so with all my turtle necks (I never wear them in Canada until the temperature goes down to about 20 below), I got a cold. My voice is funky and I cannot seem to be as effectively nasty to quiet down the kids.

I have fun with some of them and must admit they are growing on me. For example this girl Kate, she always begs me for English tests. She goes through them like pop corns. She makes funny duck noise. I thinks she's a very bright kid.

There's also this kid who comes to school from an orphanage. Well his parents left him there when they got a divorce. It seems that they re-married and stop coming to visit him. Yet, he's bright and upbeat. He doesn't seem to grow as fast as others. I gave him an alphabet book to encourage him to learn it. I think it may have worked.
