The little school I teach at is called Peningki Hill School. Since I am the only staff member at the school, I get to decide how many days off we get. I decided to take off last Friday, October 30th. Teacher in-service day. :o) I actually got to do something fun. I went to Balikpapan. Due to the oil in Balikpapan, a lot of Westerners live there. So the town has a lot of amenities that Tarakan does not have. For starters a really nice hotel. I spent two nights in Balikpapan relaxing. It was great.
Tomorrow it is back to school again. It will also be my first day to be in charge of the English Club. It will be interesting to see how we cope - I don't speak Indonesian and their English is weak. It will be good for both parties.
The English club sounds like fun. Glad you got to have some relaxing time at that hotel. I'm sure it recharged your batteries.
ReplyDeleteI want to hear all about the first day of English class! Hopefully, you have a curriculum that you can plug right into and not have to make up each lesson. I am still waiting on a photo of you sitting on your little red scooter! It's gotta be your next blog post! Love and hugs, Mary Jo
