Unbelievable, it's only the 2nd weeks for me invading into school, it felt like I have been doing it for ages. Anyway, today has been a really long and fun day, I almost slept in the marshutka (bus) on the way back.
Ok, 1st of all, the dinner and breakfast in the school of No.46 and No.66 is better than the school where I am currently staying at, Vedrogenia. I still feel funny how all the government school are all numbers like no. 46, No.66 instead of a name like Kolam Air, Convent, Wellington High etc.
Anyway, I was at school No.46 this morning and I went to 2 classes in that school. I told them about New Zealand and something about Malaysia in both classes. Some of them like it, some of them had no expressions, but I dont give a fuck about those who are not interested in me because there are a lot who are interested and that's enough for me, they are my target audience, people who are eager to know about other people and culture and to practise their English.
Then I walked to school No.66 which is just the next building. I'm a good friend of one of the vide principle in No.66, she is very friendly and she wants to know about other cultures. Then I went into this special class. Why is this class special? Because this class almost made me lose my voice to try and control them, they are out of controls!!! Like some drunken monkeys in some AIESEC parties!!! They couldnt really understand me and they were so noisy!!! BUT!!! They are very interested in me and asked me all kinds of questions, well, they tried! They were so happy to see their name in Chinese and all of them, about 40 of them in the class, they all ask for my signatures on their book, ask for my emails, ask for my phone numbers etc. I felt very popular signing all my autographs XDXD and one of the gal gave me a candy.
For some reason I think the gals like me very much. Most of the time the gals are those who asked the most questions. The gals in the next class, LOL all of the gals took like an individual photograph with me on their camera and cellphones. So that's why I felt like a celebrities in the school where I gave out autograph, gals come and ask to have a photo with me, recieving biscuits, candies, x'mas cards from my 'fans'! I felt so much love!!!
So for the 3rd class, it's another special class where these are the students who request from the vice principle to have me back in the school because they want to talk to me and practise their English. About 16 of them, and only 2 guys. I think little boys ages below 11 likes me more than the little gals, then the other way round, more gals above 11 likes me more, LOL!!!
So today I went to 8 classes + one with 8 English teachers. It's strange to talk infront of 6 English teacher in a school in Ukraine and all of them ages from their late 20s till 50. Actually it was a bit scary... But all good! I could still feel the loved from the gals, muaaahahahahahaa!!!
Then the vice principle, Anna wanted to find out the reaction of kids who have poor English aged 11 and 6. She would like to know what kind of questions they would ask me in these 2 age groups. So, the level of English = the level of my Ukrainian. But the point is they like foreigners, they want to know more about me and they asked a lot of questions and the teacher next to me help to translate. Ok, some random qestions from the kids like what exotic fruits do you have in NZ... I was speechless but I told them durian from M'sia. Then they ask me what flowers do we have in NZ... I was like 'yeah... flowers... right... WE HAVE ROSE GARDENS IN THE BOTANIC GARDENS!'. Then another questions like how are the trees looks like in NZ. 'Er... ... ... ... !! They needs to be very strong because Wellington has very strong winds!!!'
Ok, so for those of you who wants to go into school as a foreigner and tell them about your country and you dont know their lauguage, you have to be full of ENERGY! LIKE ME! Else i'm sure you may faint in some classes XD
Enough blah blah blah for today!!! Ciao aminco!!
