Last night the teachers performed (rather well) our dance to Riverside. All dressed in black with UV face detail and body paint. It was short, sweet and pretty cool. The kids loved it anyway, even if we all sweated off most of the paint (the disco room is SO hot with the breath blood and sweat of 240 kids and 30 degrees outside)

Then we played mafia last night before bed which was funn and a good alternative to getting waste

Today has been so long. The first class would not listen, did not care and because we have the Oscars ceremony again tonight were really hyped for it and were talking loads about it and trying to present them with an hour and half on Past continuous was fucking difficile. The second lesson went better because I had the break to quickly adapt it to make it easier so that was better. During lunch me and Dearbhla (who´s my work partner) decided to collaborate our two classes (both as nightmarish as each other) to perform a Kaiser cheifs song which has really appropriate lyrics. We got the classes together in my classroom (which is huge) and they were like ´noeo´ and wouldnt be told and were super rebellious and Dearbhla threatened them in Spanish and I tried to play good cop and still it failed so we went with whatever they wanted to do in the end. They are now doing Replay (shawty´s like a melody in my head) which is pretty cool but the STRESS of 30 of them together all not listening was so draining.

After that we decided to design a tshirt for the teachers as a memory with everyones name on it and i was nominated to design it which was nice so did some graff thing but no one could decide a colour and it was more stress and I think everyones a bit snappy because we literally eat sleep work party and relax together.

Anyway at least the food was cool today (chickpeas and nuts and prunes and fruit) and We still have Toby the inflatable crocodile at the pool for jokes.

So tonight is the Oscars award ceremony, its interesting to see the children coming all dressed with their dates, will be fun to see who the girls and boys in my class go with. A girl who has been a bit problematic (quite spoilt and dippy) taught me a good font during geography yesterday which was cool and i drew peoples names in it and they all made super cool flags.

Don´t think we´re going out tonight as we need to save and wednesday and friday are usually big nights.

I love how little boys kill insects AND THEN KEEP THEM in pen lids or their pencil case haaa
