March 19 - Today has been working on lesson plans from our rooms. We went to the campus office yesterday and saw our classrooms, they are cold! Pray for warmer weather soon! They don't have our computers switched to English yet. They are treating us very nicely and have set up an office with all new furniture for us to use.
We got our final schedules and I will be teaching 4 classes of the same content each week to Soph. students - Mon. 2-4, Wed. 8-10, Thur 8-10, and Fri 8-10. We have our first week ready - we think! There are always surprises. Mary Beth's schedule is different from mine so it looks like we will be on campus all day except on Tue and Fri.
We don't have many plans for the week-end but hope to go to church Sunday morning. Maybe we will recognize some of the song melodies.
I had my best night's sleep last night. My bed is hard so I have to get used to it.
The restaurant here in the hotel is different, the menu is sample dishes on display so you choose which ones you want them to cook for you. The first night we ordered way too much, last night we had a very good lamb dish - thin slices of meat roasted on small skewers and had an eggplant dish with small shrimp. That was plenty. For lunch we were taken to the north campus restaurant and had hot pot again. I am not fond of hot pot! It is not appetizing to me to look at the raw food, select what you want??, then take it to your table and cook it in the pot. It is also difficult to fish out the food with chopsticks! I'm doing better just eating with the chopsticks - even rice.
I watched Tony's sermon from last Sunday and felt closer to home. It is necessary to rely on father to keep going. Pr for relationships to develop as time goes on.
I can't get on facebook to keep everyone informed so please pass on my updates. I can get my email. Scott Hummel from WCU delivered the items to the Jernigans when the WCU delegation and Duprees went to Bj from here. They are to arrive in Hattiesburg Sat. night late.
I love getting news from home so send me some email.
