Szerda
It's colder than it's ever been. I wear long underwear every day and wool socks and thick scarves under my coat, and yet through all my woolly underwear everything still goes numb, and my ears prick because a hat gives you hat hair. Not that I should mind, since I woke up 5 times this morning to wash my hair and kept pressing the snooze button, and so it needs to be covered, but I have stopped caring how clean I am since no one else here does. I got here to discover again there is no class 1st period, but I am supposed to substitute 2nd period instead. My students tell me this, but they beg me to stay and play Mafia for the 1st period anyway. If you don't know Mafia, my students love this game, although it involves killing people and trying to discover the murderer. My class this morning decided that wasn't gruesome enough, so they made up a Vampire/Werwolf game, with all the same rules, just changed the Mafia to these undead creatures who come out at night for blood. Why did I let them? Because they were funny, and they did it all in English, which is pretty impressive. Now I have to go back to the class and maybe actually teach this time, but we may continue the game. I get lazy sometimes, and just like them to have some fun, as long as we talk in English. Is that bad? I don't know, but I do it, because it is relaxing to me as well, and I need to relax sometimes too. Well, I'm off. Stay warm America.

When I translate "Szerda" into English, it says Wednesday.
