Today is Wednesday, so that means Haba Orda, or German game day, for the Kinders. I haven’t a clue about how to play any of the games because they’re all in German. I usually pick out tangrams-like games and picture-matching-type games. Sometimes, the kids are able to figure them out, but other times, well, 90 percent of the time, they only play with the pieces. They love to dump the game pieces in the play sink or in different containers and make-believe play. Today, one of the little boys was playing a poker type game with alphabet cards and apparently, I was always losing, while he always won. Imagine that, right? Haha. Well, the games usually get very old with the kids very fast since they have attention spans of gold fish. So they end up playing and I end up collecting all of the pieces and taking the games back to the common room.

I went home for lunch and that was uneventful. I did talk to mom and dad and then I went back to school to get things started early. Joni was wearing a really beautiful necklace she got in Bali and I liked it, so I took a picture of it.

After school I decided to go get some take out from the little place Sonya took me to. I had what she had the day we went. It was called che-you-dop-bap. Basically, it was steamed white rice with fried pork and vegetables in hot pepper sauce. They tried to offer me a spoon but I declined and took chop sticks instead. I have found it easier to use chopsticks and I’m becoming quite the pro. It was really good and really spicy. At first I couldn’t tell if it was because it was piping hot or if it was because it was spicy, but I think I came to the conclusion that it was a little of both. Well, time for bed! Until next time!
