Day to Day life

Ok so nothing much has happened since my last post but I thought I would go through my day here so you know what my life is like.....
Mondays I teach twice a day. I teach the kindergarteners in the morning from 10 to Noon. and by noon I am so tired from, yelling and repeating myself so many times all i want to do is crash. At noon I go down to our main teaching area and I help clean up and plan my next lessons. At 1 the cafeteria lady brings us lunch. It pretty much consists of the same thing everyday. Broth that looks like dirty water with a few onions and potatoes, they bring us meatballs or something else really weird, and bread, with water. By then I am so hungry I really don't look at what i'm eating i just eat. Then I usually go to paterson's our life saving store and buy something cheap and good to hold us over till dinner. We then normally go to my flat cause its the closest. We chill there talk, plan lessons, watch movies and what not just to recover from the morning's teaching. At 4:30 or around there I go back to the elementary school and teach my 12 year olds from 5:00 to 7:30. After that I walk home in the snow, and eat dinner at my flat. Its fun. Then I usually end up spending the rest of the evening with my family. They drink tea I drink apple juice. Then around 10 i shower and read scriptures and such and get into bed by 11:30 or so. The next day I only teach at 4 so i go to school around 2:30 in the afternoon. Plan lessons, meetings, and teach till six then I go home and spend the evening with my family. Thats pretty much it. The weekends are different we usually meet around 11 in the morning and go on an adventure. Friday night we learn different russian recipes. Sunday I leave for church at 10 cause it takes an hour to get there. We get home around three or so then we have our traditional french toast its delicious. Then we watch a movie and I go home and go to bed. My life here doesn't sound to exciting but Its actually lots of fun. as you can see from other posts. anyways I was really just writing this blog to fill in time cause my family wasn't home but they are here now. So later all!
