Snacktime fun! (pictures)

It's important when choosing a laminating film to consider the comfort of your woman.  This laminating film in particular is a 'truly noble man's choice', as you can see from the satisfied smile of the woman reclining on the couch. 

The first time I saw this, I was understandably confused.  But I guess ignoble laminating film would be a pain to work with.  It's only this A3 size that has it, though.  The regular A4 has a picture of a tiger in a jungle, which, while also slightly mind-boggling, is nowhere near the entertainment level of this one. 

When I had finished taking my picture, I wandered into Tulip class with my camera to see what the all-day class was up to.  Actually, I had seen Kim-teacher carrying a tray of fried rice in there, so I knew what was up.  I started talking to some of the girls in my small pieces of Korean, which always gets them excited.  They laugh and clap for me, "Siobhain-teacher, very good job!!"  I sat down to talk to them, and they quizzed me on what words I knew in Korean.  I knew most of what they asked me - tree, eye, sun, fried rice; except for 'face' which I can't for the life of me remember now.  I got a bowl of rice and ate with them, and took some pictures, which they thought was funny.  They like posing for pictures, and think it's even funnier to look at them afterwards.  I played with editing some of them tonight. 

Here's Emily and Annie, with the usual Asian pose.  Cheese!

Hannah got in the way of the first picture I tried to take of David and Gregory.  She's so sweet, and really smart.  And of course kids missing their front teeth look adorable.





Here's a better shot of the boys, without Hannah.   David is Emily's twin - have I mentioned that we have an amazing amount of twins at my school? Srsly - there are like 6 sets of them, and that's not an exaggeration.  But David and Emily are my favorites I think.
The hearts in the background were entirely coincidental, but I thought they were funny - the kids always like to joke about who loves each other.  It's usually a fair amount of "Siobhain-teacher, Donald-teacher, love!"  or any other combination of two (or three) teachers, depending on how silly the kids are being.  But I really want to caption this picture, "Gregory, David, love?"

Emily took this picture when I was showing her how to use my camera, and I edited it a bit. Probably not the best picture of me or Annie ever taken - we both look a bit scruffy, but I like the way it turned out.  Reminds me! I have to scan those pictures that were taken of me at the Children's Park - the photographer got some interesting shots, though I tried to stay out of his lens as much as I could.  I got some good ones too, come to think of it- I should edit those.  One day.



Lastly, two pictures of Christina, one edited and one not.  I'm not sure which one I like better.  Christina is a sweet little girl, and she always reminds me of xtna, both in looks and attitude.  She's very playful.  Here, she was laughing about one of my responses to her questioning on my and Donald's non-relationship. 

In other news, there's not much here.  I measured my shirt last night, and got 41cm, but when I measured again later, I was only at 39 - but that's okay!! I'm almost done - with the stockinette tunic part anyway!! Soon I can switch needles and do the top part, and then the sleeves.   I can't wait.  I'm thinking of starting another project in the meantime though, just for some instant gratificatin - i can't decide if I wanna try the socks I've been considering for a while or do the presents for julie and bethany that I've been putting off... We'll see.

Now, I need to go plan my open class lesson, since I spent 4 hours napping this evening.  Didn't mean to, and woke up with mogi bites and an allergically-swollen lip, but I guess that's my bad for sleeping with the window open.  Probably should eat some dinner too.  Maybe when I get done with that, I will let myself do some knitting or reading. I'm going to be up for another couple hours anyway, I guess.
