Spring in the air?
It seems strange to speak of Spring now, but there was a fresh sense today when I walked around. The weather was amazing, exactly the right temperature to enjoy being outside. I am a bit surprised since the weather forecast earlier spoke about an incoming storm.
This week has been filled with work and more work. It takes time to get into a new job and next week will be no different. I will probably have at least three sets of exercise books to mark. But I feel I am getting used to working at a new school and the colleagues are quite fun. Also, this week ended with a amazing lesson where, amongst other mad things, two girls read about antibodies and white blod cells while making a parody of their own West Indian accents. Besides, I got to love a school with several Star Wars posters on the walls.
As for reading I have finished Death Star and I loved it. I really like how the story connected to the oldest Star Wars movie and adding a different perspective. I guess from now on I will consider the destruction of the first Death Star more morally wrong than ever before ;). Now I have finally started Robin Hobb's Shaman's Crossing which has been lying on my shelf for years.
I also found myself slightly annoyed at the lack of Earl Grey at Whittard of Chelsea today. But that annoyance soon turned to happiness as I discovered their Irish Cream tea. I bought it, enjoyed it and all was bliss.
