hey

Sorry it's been a couple days, I was horribly sick yesturday with my first case of travelers sickness. It was rough. All I did was get sick, sleep, and read all day and 2 nights. but I am feeling so much better. thank goodness!
Saturday, before I got sick, I went with my friends to Thamel in Kathmandu. There are tons of shops and resturants to explore, I got some really nice things - for cheap. That is was I love most so far - everything is soooo cheap! We were having lunch and it started pouring rain, so we spent a lot of time at the resturant and at a book shop. It got a Nepali play for 50rs - 69rs to a US dollar - hell yeah!
So today, I was pretty frustrated with the whole teaching situation and what not. So I was blunt as hell and just expressed how I was feeling about it all. Long story short, I finally got a schedule worked out with teaching theatre. At first Mr. Patel was trying to figure out my English class schedule...and I was like "No. Let's do theatre first since that is why I am here!" So that was really good and I feel so much better about the situation. I am starting teaching to classes 2 and 9 tomorrow. Theatre that is. I decided I will be going to be attending as many English classses as I have the energy for -- as a resourse for both the teacher and the students. As a co-teacher. So that is wonderful. A big weight off of my chest. Well, I will keep you posted as to how my classes go.
Much love.
