Back in the Routine

Well, after China, we're back in the routine of work and language again. We both have a new sense of desire to learn language, which is good. We also need the energy to do so too!

In this past week, we were excited to find a few more things that previously we hadn't found here, so we are happy. Angela found mint flavoring (for cooking, etc.). Tesco (our Wal-Mart) seems to have gotten a new section because they now have saltine equivalents and graham crackers. They are slightly different, but for us, they are close enough. The graham crackers are called grahams and are from the Philippines. They are a bit lighter weight, but hey, for smores they're all the same.

Work is going well for me (Matt). Angela has another group of kids, so it's up and down. Part of the stress is that the kids' parents want them to be taught out of a book, and the kids are 5-8! Some days are good, and other days, well, kids are kids and they can't sit still or stay quiet.
