I hope I spelled that right.
I'm too stubborn though, to check my spelling on here, out of confidence in myself, same as I refuse to use a translator, and I definitely confuse people here that way.
Well, I thought I had been told that I was moving Quarta-feira, which is Wednesday....so, on Monday I started to pack. I guess I shocked them because everyone is like "ready to go?" Opa.
I was nervous about my next house, and still am a little...but I was nervous about this house as well... and it turned out pretty well.
Now I am moving Monday after lunch. Crazy. I've been living in this house for three months already. It flew by. The only thing I missed was using MY computer, and being able to go out at night.
The other night after work, Wagninho came over. He had a little coffee with us and talked. Then he and I headed outside and while I was talking, I realized he just nods and smiles too much. He doesn't understand ANY English...besides "BEAUTIFUL GIRL!" hahahaha, so...I started to teach. I think I got somewhere, but we really only read a little bit and I taught him the days of the week in English. It's a start, right?
I would be the teacher everyone dislikes because I give too much work, I'm sure.
Two nights ago, I went to work with my current hostmother. She works at a public school in my city, and I go to school in the morning, she works sometimes in the mornings and afternoons, but at night there as well. Night school is SO different, firstly, it starts at seven and ends around 11.
The difference between public schools and private (where I currently attend) is shocking. All in all though, I was kept busy doing office jobs that night and it was fun :)
I went bowling last night... I convinced the boys to go because I said I would pay. It's cheaper here than in New York, though the boys said it would be expensive. Nooope. Four of us played three games in one house for less than 30 reals. I had fun, I lost miserably the first game, but won the last with a whopping score of 82...PATHETIC. But the boys stopped trying...so...I won. They messed up my last shot though :(
It's been good. I booked a date to come home, I'm TRYING to book my Amazonia trip, but my mother is ignoring my e-mails. I wish I could list on here the things that just irritate me beyond belief. Incompetency would definitely be there.
Oh, and I'm a LITTLE jealous. So many people I know on exchange are being visited in their last month here by family and friends and what not. It would be pretty sick to show people more than just pictures, it's great...but no. One boy is even flying home with them. Well, THAT would irritate me. Another thing. I like people. But for short periods of time :D
