Staying busy...
| I give my blog no attention. A recap of everything from the past month or so: Two British girls came to Macon on a teaching exchange, and somewhere some very important wires were crossed and they were told they didn't need to speak French. The school in Macon was told they have a degree in French. So they don't speak a word of French, and they are trying to survive in a town that doesn't speak much English. I met them, and Svet and I took them out around town and stuff. Fast forward two weeks. One of the girls boyfriends came. He was really nice, Svet and I hung out with them also. The girl whose boyfriend didn't come over decided she hated this program enough to leave two weeks into it. They were only supposed to be here for a month. But she left, and then there was one. The girl that stayed is really awesome, and Svet and I are going to try to go up to England during April break to go see her. We (Svet and I...btw, Svet is the other primary assistant in town, we both live in the same high school and hang out a lot) met some guys in the internet cafe who took us hiking on a huge rock/mountain in the Macon area. It was cool, it was actually really beautiful from the top of the giant rock. And it was muddy and I fell in the mud. That night we hung out with them again, in some guy's father's winery. It was pretty much hanging out in a cellar next to huge wine vats. This weekend is the documentary film festival in Macon, so I have four docs lined up. It's snowing again, and I've been told many many times that this is the worst winter Macon has seen in a very looong time. But I hear the spring is beautiful! |
