Soooo, I haven't been posting much lately because all of my recent attempts to get at the internet have been thwarted. The (ridiculously expensive) internet place in my town has had connection problems, and I haven't gone to my provincial town where I can sit down and type for hours. The good news is that for the holidays I have a connection and time to spare. Yay internet!
My last few weeks have been one of the more intense periods of teaching since I've arrived at my site. My co-teachers and I have actually done things like finish chapters, play review games, and give tests. During my outside-of-school teaching, I've started working on the grammatical concept of nouns and the compositional concept of the body of an essay.
I've also attended the wedding of a good Khmer friend of mine, and a couple of bons (I have no idea what the English word for bon is. I would guess somewhere between ceremony and party.). A real teacher is trying to teach me to read Khmer. And I'm on the 300-somethingth page of The Brothers Karamazov. Only 600 left to go!
