So, I think I know why I couldn't sleep last night. See, with Ambien (or any of it's equivalents) you are not supposed to take alcohol. Now, I did not have much, especially as it did not smell or taste overly of alcohol. But apparently any amount is enough to fuck with the chemicals. The result: waking up every hour, unable to fall into a sleep deeper than dream sleep, and constant tossing about.
So. Not doing that again. I guess I have to wait until any booze is out of my system. =/
Work was...well work. We got one new kid to the whole school, one girl puked during the assembly, and I planned a lot of lessons. So far 1st grade and 4th grade are ready to go Friday. It's 6th grade I am worried about as I tried to plan stuff with them and then they wanted to switch topics and by that point it was 3:15 and they decided they'd figure it out - without me - and do the prep work too. I don't like this as I have no idea what we'll be doing, what will be expected of me, etc. I'd rather they cancel the classes. -_-;
They all had some English teaching seminar apparently over the holidays. They now know some of the techniques I use! =D And want to use them all in one lesson. 8D; However, Australia got no love from my teachers. Apparently the accent is too thick for them to muddle through. They are even happier now to have me, a person who lack accent except for emotion, which continues to amaze them apparently. I give the most energetic "Hello!" in our school. Phrase of the day: HAPPY NEW YEAR! Got to love my kids, some of them are so smart. T^T
I got a free kimono poster calendar though! And some foods as it is omiyage season.
And now I am wondering where the time fucking went? D= I feel like I have done NOTHING ALL DAY, minus work, that was something.
