Over a month since the last post, and I have a very good reason! At school, we just finish a huge two day event for the parents. It was called "Market Play" and we simulated a little town for the kids to go through with there parents. They went to the bank and got money from a little ATM, bought schools supplies at a market, and went to a cafe and ordered food. The play itself was only two hours, each day, but the preparation took a month. We had to make all the props, powerpoints, and teach the students chants and songs. We ended up staying at school until about 10:00pm on many nights. It was a mess to make, but a success in the end. The parents loved it and complimented the teachers on all their hard work.
However, I feel as though I am having a snowball effect with work because now it's on to the next task. This new task being another parent's day next month. There usually isn't two parent's days so close together, but for some reason there is now. We are making a hospital play. This one is an actual play were the kids will have scripts and costumes. I have already started preparing for it and feeling slightly overwhelmed. I was pretty sad after market play because I usually have this great feeling of relief, but not this time. The pressure is starting again, but I'm trying to take it day by day!
Other than school, my social life (or what's left of it) is going good. I had a chance to go to a Cherry Blossom Festival last weekend and it was so amazing. The trees looked like they were covered in fluffy, white snow and the amount of people there was insane! Speaking of snow, sorry Michigan! :( Mother nature just likes messing with you! The weather has been very consistent here. For the past month, it has been gradually getting warmer and it's been in the upper 60s.
Well I am very tired and ready to sleep until that awful thing called an alarm wakes me up. Good night everyone!
