Just left my 5th grade class absolutely beaming. Sign of a class well done, I think. I've been working on teaching numbers the last few days and today was the first day I went nearly 100% in the target language and the kids really picked up on it! By the end of class, we had counted up to 100 and they were even using plus, minus, and equals auf Deutsch. :'] I've got a 40 minute break at the school so I figured I could squeeze in a blog post!
It's needless to say I've been busy. But this past weekend was especially fun. I've had so many great music experiences lately! Friday night WUD Music brought Astronautalis and Why? to the Sett and they all put on a fan-freaking-tastic show. Front row-ed it, got a set list, great concert. On Saturday, I finally got my game together and saw Argo (just in time), which I thoroughly enjoyed. I feel like Argo was Ben Afleck's taste at filming an Ocean's movie. It's produced by Clooney, Alan Arkin plays the Sol-character, and the whole plot is basically a human heist. I dug it. On Sunday, I super cleaned my apartment and did loads of laundry (heheheheh) because we've got inspections and showings today and tomorrow, I hate my landlord, but I also want random people to be impressed by my beautiful massively decorated living space :D Bess and I kicked ass at our intramural basketball game which was super fun, then we quick changed in the locker rooms and headed to the WUD Film Oscar Party. I thought it was a great event, great Oscars, great everything. I'm really glad Jennifer Lawrence won (she's so great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7SFtdOjcUw&feature=player_embedded), and William Shatner was there, and Michelle Obama!, and the Avengers boys, and I got free dinner. Awesome night.
This morning I was back up again bright and early to pack into our Cohort clown car, where we proceeded to belt out N*SYNC's No Strings Attached the whole ride to Leopold. We're leaving in a half hour and I'm super pumped because we were just at the Lisa Left Eye Lopez verse in Space Cowboy haa. You know that's what's up.
What's on my horizon? Film meeting tonight. my beautiful Bonn buddy is here on Thursday (!!!!), got my radio show heute Nacht, and uhhh an exam tomorrow whoop.
Oh, the other day, a kid in my class got a haircut with two lines buzzed into the side of his head and when the teacher asked why he did that, all he said was "swag." I speak the language of 5th graders, yo.
