getting sad and finnaly a good book
Hmm, there's not much time left here in Lodz. I am slowly getting sad. To leave this town, the other volunteers and the children from the shelter. Well, I don't have a choice but it's always like that: You stay in a place, first it's new and exciting, you have no idea where you can find what, then you start getting your routine, getting to know places, you finally ahve favorite places and in the end the town has become yours.
When I went to the shelter yesterday, there was a paedagogic student who is starting her half-a year long internship there. No one told me before that she would be there and we ended up not making cake as I had planned it (I had bought the ingredience, and had taken them with me) but we did her activity,the children made some figures from plaster. I can really see, how I got jealous of her, because I felt like she was somehow taking away "my" children. She wants to go with them to the movies etc, all things that cost money (which she gets from the shelter) but which I don't find to be that paedagogical "correct". Ok there's nothing wrong with going to the movie theater, but most of these kids haven't ever been to the zoo. Now wouldn't that be somehting more appropriate? There is a TV at the shelter, the kids can always watch a movie if they want to, but the zoo, that would be somehting new. But well....next monday at least, I'll have the afternoon for myself and since it's my birstday then, I'll bring some cake and we will paint.
In one hour, our last Polish lesson will take place, we'll watch a movie (yes but I've already been to the zoo (-; ) and I am sad that this is basically it, as far as Polish is concerned.
As to good book: Lisa borrowed me a very good one : EVIL by Jan Guillou . I can only reccomend it! ( i read it within 1,5 days)
