Funnily enough for couple lessons I was turned into teacher for maths (!!!) (I am not so sure if my maths teacher would be so proud as I have forgot a fair deal of things. During English and CRE (Christian religious education) we were spotting differences between Lithuania (!!!) and Kenya. Well, I have to admit, they were quite quick to grasp the information UNLIKE British. Some of them just needed to confirm - is it in East Europe. Well, some of uk people still think Lithuania is somewhere around Africa.

It was sad to leave. This one day formed friendships - jokes we shared, stories they told; the eyes of the boy standing in the doorway when we were silently marking time on the threshold; the tree, that boy has drawn with only red pencil, as he does not have other colours...

When I was through the gates, I broke into tears and cried like a small child, the tears of guilt, of sadness, maybe joy that they have each other. Truly have... A mixture of everything. And some of them are so talented and willing to learn. The others - willing to learn. They all had optimism and motivation, that our countries lack. A star to reach, a dream to dream...
