So it’s Day 2 of midterms and I’m all done my marking….and everything that I need to get done/can get done at the moment. So, I’m sitting in the office watching the game online while the rest of the office is marking away. I miss watching hockey more than I thought I would. It’s really frustrating to watch it online though because I need to use my VPN to watch games which slows down my internet even more. Anyways, it’s going to be hard to watch the games due to the time difference. 7pm at home is 10am here…making it a little difficult sometime. So I guess weekends and times when I have prep I’ll be able to keep up with the games live…otherwise it’ll all just be updates. We did a little hockey pool at work, so that should be fun, we have a big pot going at the moment.
Apparently the game distracted me a little bit :S Anyways now we are on Day 3 of midterms and I’m trying to fill my day. I got to talk to Brad for awhile this morning and called Dawn to confirm everything with my taxes that she is doing for me. I got to see the baby’s room as well which was nice to be involved in everything at home to some degree. I can’t believe that the baby will be coming soon. It would be crazy if mom and dad were here with me when it happened as well…I can’t even imagine.
Anyways there were some office pranks again this week. April Fools I may have put Mitch’s desk in the hallway…so someone leaked that I may have had a hand in that so the last day of classes for the students, while I’m running around answering questions and giving make up tests and what not I notice that a bunch of stuff from my desk in on top of my desk and not in the drawer. I didn’t even want to deal with it at the moment with so many students around, so I just let it chill there for a bit. Once it was all calmed down in the office I opened the drawer to find a lovely pigs heart :S Fun fun fun. Anyways, I went into the science office and made him take it out. I know it’s just meat, but it was still gross looking. I do think that the crabs were worse though. Thank goodness we stopped that when we did. I talked to Annali recently and she said that he was planning on putting live chickens in our apartment somehow! I don’t know how he could pull it off…I’m sure he would have though…
Anyways, it’s now the last day of midterms and I think my afternoon is going to be spent on my computer watching movies or downloading music. This weekend I think we might go to Aloha (the western food restaurant) and maybe into Hankou tomorrow. Hankou is the nicer area of Wuhan. We’re in Wuchang…which doesn’t have a lot. Hopefully I’ll have some fun stories to tell after the weekend. I still can’t believe that Monday we’ll be starting the final term of the year. I’ll get my last group of Drama kids. I’m almost close to starting the countdown to come home. July 1st is actually starting to come into sight now that we’re starting the last term. Also two weeks until our May vacation where I meet up with Mom and Dad in Beijing and start our journey around China J Can’t wait!
It’s also started to head up again. Yesterday it was 30, feels like 33. Today I looked at the weather forcast and it says highs of 32, feels like 38. Funny thing about that is that I talked to Dawn today and she said she scraped snow off the car…little different from back home!
