Today started off like any normal day, except that it began at 5:30am. I tried and failed multiple times to fall back asleep, but ended up watching a few movies instead. Lunch was homemade chicken curry with a side of movies, then I got ready to sub at a friend's school.
I left about an hour and a half before I was supposed to be at the school (which was still a half hour before class was going to start), and the bus ride was going well until I thought it wasn't going to bring me to the right stop, so I got off at what was the wrong bus stop. Oops. I ended up walking for almost an extra hour, which included backtracking on multiple streets. My phone helped GREATLY, but I don't know how it was working, because I don't think it has data...but oh well. if GoogleMaps is going to work on my phone, then I am not going to question it.
At 4:55, I finally got to the school, prepped in the five minutes before class, then headed up to the classroom. My friend had outlined a lesson plan for me, which was wonderful. The students were super quiet and shy the whole time, but they did warm up a lot when I scattered a few games of Simon Says and singalongs of Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes throughout the lesson.
Upon leaving the school, I found a market on the way to the bus. I didn't buy anything, but had a great time looking around at all of the fresh produce.
On the bus ride I saw a lot of lights and statues at my favorite park, so I got off the bus and walked around and took pictures. It was so cool! However, it took me a while to realize that there were probably horse statues (which were colorful, electric, lit-up, and awesome) everywhere because we are now in the year of the horse.
Hungry and tired at this point, I started to dance-walk home, did some fun shopping, then stopped for a sushi and blog-writing session. After sushi I went home and was asleep by 10:30pm.
