blacklillyI have work to do, but I don't want to do it. I want to go back to sleep.
Yesterday was a rather busy day - i was teaching until 9.45pm. Tonight I'm teaching until 10pm. At least tomorrow I'm not teaching until 5pm, which means walking in to log in at 1pm then going home again for a few hours. I taught little kids yesterday too. They were mental. There's one little boy who screams when he's excited, a little girl who doesn't say a word, but who watches you intently (I managed to get her to say 'Ferris Wheel'), and two boys who are partners in crime - one of whom is obsessed with snatching things from you and then slamming them back in your hand, I kept giving him a piece of paper back until he did it politely. It's less of a lesson and more babysitting - but they like singing songs so I think we'll do a few more of those.
I'm a little nervous small children as they are blatant sociopaths - I don't understand them at all, and I have no desire whatsoever to have one of my own. Still, I was told that you don't need to like children to teach them, but it helps if they like you. No offence to those of you have have kids, of course, but I'm glad they're yours and not mine!
Yawn yawn yawn. I should do some work...
