 |
|
| since the hot weather has arrived the last two lessons have been a total zoo. most of the teachers here tell me that all they do is try their best to keep the kids (actually 19-23 year olds) in the class and prevent them from destroying the classroom. i have a really good class but even they are unresponsive with the exception of a few. |

| because i'm much older i have become a habitual creature. i always have my coffee black and make sure the students read quietly. except when they're talking on their cell phones or talking to their frineds or talking to themselves or talking to me about their uncle in america |

Same here. Time to put the duvet away until next winter.
*dmb, the cheap Scottish git, rejoices as he realises heating bills will be non-existant for the next 7 months* |

Depends where you go. That bar at the top of Siraselviler, Turuncu, near Taksim square- it's always warm. |

Nah we just pretend to to seem big on this board, it's all lies. I've never had a drink in my life because of religion, and DMB's too strung out on crack to make it to the bar.
