Quick Post

I've only got 15 minutes until I go to a 6 hour child protection training course so I must be quick.

I've been teaching at a school since week 5 of this term. It's a temporary position for a full time music teacher. So I've been teaching a lot of music. I like teaching, although, because I'm the temporary teacher I don't really get to teach what I want to teach. So sometimes I have to think really hard about how to teach something (like Indian music or HipHop or Rock). Every now and then I try to slip in some 19th Century music or Opera. Also because I'm a temporary, it's taken me a while to get a hold on some of the kids. It's pretty ok now... still about 2 classes who are just really disrespectful... and it's not nice to be disrespected. So that's a little frustrating. But anyways, next week is my last week there.

Wedding planning has been going smoothly too. We have bridesmaid dresses!

Not much else has been happening besides school. I've been reading Genesis, Proverbs and Luke. Genesis just keeps on reminding me that we are sinful but God is loving and faithful. Proverbs has some really funny things in it - but it also reminds me how much I need wisdom (especially as I teach in school). Luke has been a very exciting book to read. Jesus is a very surprising person.
