On Our Own

Stream-of-consciousness tales of a single mom and her two kids as we embark on a life-altering adventure.

What's the racket?


Dai came by tonight, around 6pm, to ask if the kids could come out and play badminton with him and some other students. Neither Stuart nor Audrey were super eager to hang out with students eager to practice English, but I pushed them to head out. The weather has been lovely the last couple of days and I know that as summer progresses the evenings, like this, that dip into the 80s will be non-existent. So out they went and soon after I followed to find out exactly where they were. Come to find out there is a badminton court set up in the play yard of the primary school that abuts the university campus. We'd seen it from the top floor of the adjoining building when we were here two years ago, but never knew what it was. Now we do... it's a primary school. I watched them play for a bit, then nabbed the chance to play when I got it.

The first week of teaching is finished and I feel like it was pretty successful. I've got some enormous shoes to fill with Mr. Ben leaving, but I will simply do my best.
