It's Thursday today, were in Lilongwe updating visa's again and collecting Georgie who's been back in england again, this time for Leeds interview, i have been in a rubbish mood for the last day. I Keep on getting really angry really easily, i think this is just tiredness?!
Yesterday lessons were pretty good but today maths was bloody awful, i had to teach multiplying fractions which i had to teach myself very speedily last night before i died in bed. its fairly confusing the whole having to get the numerator and denominator opossite each other to be as small as possible and therefore you have to divide both by their loweest common multiples after having changed them from mixed numbers to improper fractions....so whilst i was busy trying to do this, the one teacher who i dislike comes in, he is such an ass, he always acts like he thinks he's better than me which is most annoying...and interupts saying you can divide that by 2 by the way..which was true but still all the kids laughed and i wasn't in the mood plus he then tried to make me look even more stupid by telling me the answer, which i did knew...he did all this perched smugly with his head in one hand smirking at me behind the 160 kids..and i wanted to punch him! Anyway, feels better to get that out.
I'm actually pretty exhausted so can't be bothered to write much about Nkhata bay....apart from, had an awesome tiume, everyone was on top form. 8 hours by bus there but quite comfortable. We stayed in a fairly cheap and cheerful but pretty place called 'Big blue star' for three four days. we had sun and a mahussive thunderstorm and all got munched to death by the mozzies, whilst a fair few got diareah. i bought many a cool bracelet and lost two whilst swimming in the lake. we went on a boat trip and fed a couple of wild eagles named 'Georgie' and 'Mary' went swimming, made some sand castles, i made a big sand crab, which whipped the tush of Johns much planned castle...and generally had a brill time. The place wasn't quite as amazing as expected, just a couple of small clubs, lots of fun due to everyone being together however. Some serious dancing was also had whihc was most necessary as we do lurve a good dance.
Right i'm off for lunch now...chicken salad with avacado and a coke float...yum.
Lots of Love
