It’s been a while since we’ve updated.\u00a0 Not much is going on.\u00a0 We go to work, we come home, we eat food, we watch shows or dick around on the Internet.\u00a0 On the weekend we go grocery shopping and do laundry.<\/p>\n
We did actually venture out a few times this past weekend.\u00a0 On Friday we went to the Lenin Lighting.\u00a0 There is a big bronze statue of Vladimir Lenin on one of the corners in our neighborhood.\u00a0 The Fremont Chamber of Commerce puts lights and a Santa hat on him.\u00a0 They had a little lighting ceremony where they also talked a little bit about our local businesses.\u00a0 There was some live music, some free tiny pies and hot chocolate, and Santa Claus was there giving clementines to the good little girls and boys.\u00a0 After the Lenin Lighting, there was the Art Walk which seems to be a thing where the area businesses are open and they have free snacks.<\/p>\n
Saturday we went downtown for a little bit.\u00a0 We stopped into a few stores.\u00a0 Will still had some credits on a card from GameWorks so we went there for lunch.\u00a0 GameWorks is basically an arcade and restaurant.\u00a0 It’s a bit like Chuck E. Cheese, but without rides.\u00a0 They had Skeeball, which is the most important thing.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the Skeeball machine did not give tickets, which is necessary to make it really satisfying.\u00a0 Mmmm… Skeeball.<\/p>\n
On Sunday we did the usual shopping and laundry stuff.\u00a0 Monday was back to work.\u00a0 I like what I’m doing.\u00a0 Right now I only have six students in my main class.\u00a0 It’s sort of weird to have so few but they get along pretty well with each other so it’s nice and cozy and fun.\u00a0 It’s easy to play games or take field trips with so few students.\u00a0 And because of the holidays, we’re not likely to get many more new students in the next two weeks.<\/p>\n
I looooove Christmas.\u00a0 As I told Will, Christmas is the Bestmas.\u00a0 I’m not sure what that means, but it sounds good.\u00a0 Tomorrow is the Kaplan holiday party.\u00a0 I’m warming up to the people I work with, so that could be fun.\u00a0 We’re also making a trip to Minnesota, which is something to look forward to. \ud83d\ude00\u00a0 Our shopping is mostly done; the Internet makes if easy.<\/p>\n
It’s December.\u00a0 Will says he feels freaked out about that because he still thinks it’s September.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
