November 30th

I killed my first scorpion tonight. That brings the scorpion count to
two. This morning I had grade some quizzes, not my favorite thing
ever, but that’s all I had to do to get ready for school today which
is ok by me. Randy came over and we went to Kamakwie two to
take Megan’s material and my material for my shirt to the tailor’s.
Our trip met with success finally, I told him that there was rush on
my shirt as I would be here a while but he told me that he wanted
to do it today and I was pretty ok with that. We walked back and I
spent some time reading. After lunch I went to school, today I had
the SS3s for science and the SS2s for biology, each for two periods.
Class went pretty well on the whole. I think I’m finally starting to
enjoy teaching but don’t think for a minute that I want to be a
teacher, I hate all the planning and preparing I have to do out of
class. After class I got back to the house and helped sort some
more boxes, we’ve done quite a bit this week which is good
because we are still looking for the chemistry supplies that the
Asher’s had sent over. At about 5:30 or so Rebecca and I walked
over to the tailors to pick up Megan’s bags, her skirt, and my shirt.
When we got there we were given Rebecca’s skirt, and after
waiting for about 20 minutes we got Megan’s bags. He told me
that he would be done by 10am tomorrow. Rebecca’s skirt was
pretty complicated so I’m guessing it took him longer than he
expected. We were a little late for dinner which was ok because
we had to get Megan’s bags since she leaves in the morning and
would not be able to. Not long after dinner we found a scorpion in
Tom and Karen’s room and I killed it. I’m hoping to not find many
more in the house. Tom said they don’t usually get in but this one
was pretty small and obviously found a way in. Anyway, the
power’s not come on yet and it’s already 8pm, so I don’t know if
we’ll be getting it tonight. I’m quite bored since everyone’s out
doing something, well Karen’s in her room reading. So I think
that’s what I’m going to do. Peace out all.
