Blocked!

So for some strange reason the network here in Kara blocks me from writing on my blog and reading the comments. Except for right now... Weird, but I'll take advantage of it! The first two weeks with the team here was fun, but super hectic. I was working with the youngest group of kids, ages 4-8. That was... interesting. I've never worked with kids that age before, other than babysitting, and an added challenge that I had was that two of them spoke only French, and neither of the other two leaders spoke any French at all, which meant that it was up to me, with my rusty French, to communicate with them and make sure that that understood what was going on. Eek! I guess I did all right, and they seemed to have a good time, which was the point. =)

The rest of the team left last week Thursday, and I've basically been catching up on sleep and family time. Oh, and Smallville. ;) It's nice to be here with no responsibilities, but I feel kinda lost, not really sure what to do with my time. I had a great time this morning visiting with some friends, and then this afternoon did DDR with Beth and made a welcome sign for their teacher who is coming today. She just arrived in fact. I should go say hi and visit some...

I get back to Calgary on the 22nd, so if I don't write again before then it's because I've been blocked again. I'll try to write as soon as I'm back at school! Hooray for being a highschool RA!
