Cheers has become my new favorite expression although I am still trying to find the appropriate times to use it. It seems to be an all inclusive hi, how are you?, I’m fine, thanks in one word! Now that I think I have that mastered this week I’m going to figure out the meaning of cheeky, a word no one has been able to define except that it deals with mischievous behavior.
My highlight of the week came in overhearing a student tell a friend as I walked past that I was her favorite teacher. It is nice when students are appreciative!
Everything is continuing fine here. It’s the first of December and as the days get darker the excitement for the holiday season has been mounting. I am anxious to be home but trying not to think about it because I know my time here is very limited.
So, to everyone reading this, I miss you and will see you soon!!
Cheers!

Hard to believe it was exactly 9 years ago tonight that we were on our last flight to London. Time flies, so enjoy every minute you can soak up.
“Cheers” is still one of our favorite words and we use it a lot. “Cheeky” is probably a nicer word than some we have heard on this side of the pond. 🙂
Bask in the glory that when you leave the students will all be saying you were their favorite teacher.
Lots of love,
A.J.
