A sunny day, a simple friendship...

Hooo, end of the first week.

Should have updated previously to let you know that I don't hate the kids any more. Days 4 and 5 went very well, although I was greatly tired and hungover on day 4 so I tried not to look at them. Happily it was ethnomusicology and the oriental museum on Thursday, so I didn't have to say much. Yesterday was hominid evolution and library research. Having spent AN HOUR AND A HALF lecturing to the poor guys on primates on Wednesday, I thought maybe a change of style was in order (also I had been told by the Site Manager that I had slightly melted the kiddlies brains with my talkingtalking). This was also helpful because hominids really aren't my field AT ALL and I know very little about them. So I gave them each an animal, and told them to go and research it and present it to the group. Then off they went to the library to find out what they could about Homo floresiensis and stuff. All in all, a good day.

Just got back from helping shepherd the kids out and about through town. Some of them have bought hair dye (frowned upon). I look forward with interest to the results. Heh.

Ooh, hey, gottsa get ready to gwout. Pizza with some old chums tonight.

Whoop.
