Busy, busy

School has been so busy! I have a new job now; working with the EFL (English Foreign Language) students. One of the girls, Iulia, a fifth grader, needed help with a reading worksheet. Her class has been reading Amos Fortune, a book about a slave in the late 1700s. Since I had never read the book it was a little hard to help her with the questions. A few minutes after she had gone back to class, she came into the office to give me a copy of the book, saying "You have homework!". She was very pleased at the thought that I had to do homework too.

There is no school this Friday! It is a Teacher workday, but I get the day off. Sadly, I will miss the free lunch which happens to be my favorite: chicken steak and mashed potatoes. The lunches come from a Ukrainian lady that comes to school four times a week.

It is now 4 o'clock! The time I have been waiting for: time to call home! 

Oh, in case you were wondering...yes, I did my homework. :)

Welcome to my blog!

Welcome!
I started this blog at my mother’s suggestion who thought it would be good idea to write about my life while living in Ukraine. The problem is I don’t like to write. Ha! :D
I hope someday to get better at it and keep people informed, but I am not promising anything. ;) I will, however, try my best to post my monthly updates.
If you have any suggestions on topics to write about, questions about living in Kiev or what I do there, please let me know!           

Blessings,
Sarah
