During class today this kid stuck his entire head under my dress....like WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! The kids have zero perception of personal space. yikes.
Our Chinese coordinator, Marine, gave us all our names in Chinese. Mine is ha de li with all these crazy accents that I cant figure out on an American computer. It means good character, very pure, and beautiful.
Today our students gave us all flowers because its Women's Day which was totally adorable.
Its starting to get really humid here so everything is damp or wet all the time. Even the sheets which is gross so you always wake up feeling extra sweaty. Good thing I was raised in humidity or I'd be dying already.
There is a mop in the classroom that the kids can use to mop up if anything gets spilled and yesterday I saw a kid PEE ON THE MOP and then proceed to mop up spilled water with it.....
The Chinese teachers will yell at the kids in Chinese if they're misbehaving and they shut right up and low key look terrified. I have no idea what they yell at them but I need to learn what they're saying so the kids will listen to me.
The kids have absolutely horrible teeth. Chinese people don't drink milk so maybe that's why but its sad. They have holes and brown spots everywhere and a ton of missing teeth. It still catches me off guard when they smile sometimes.
We found this red bean bread stuff that looks really weird but is the closest thing to normal bread here so naturally we always have a stash of it.
YCLing has come in so handy with teaching and the kids. We sing a lot of songs to keep the kid's attention and most of the time its girls camp songs haha.
Weird/random thing about the kids. A few of them wear sweaters and shoes and with the Playboy bunny on it...its so weird and kind of disturbing.
The bus drivers drive with their hands on the horn and they honk allll the time for absolutely no reason at all. Dad its just like you!!!!
