I try very hard to stick to a budget and a nice, healthy eating plan!
This week I was missing country music. I am a big country music fan, but it is not that popular in Spain. I hear a lot of popular English music, but I never hear country music here. So, during my runs this week at the gym I turned on the country music radio on Spotify. I had forgotten how much I missed this music! My favorite band is Rascal Flatts. Do you know this band?
The most fun activity this week was rehearsing a play with some of my students. Next Monday is the National Day of Books. My school is organizing a bunch of activities to do during the day around the theme of books. Two of my classes have chosen to do something with Shakespeare. My first class is reading a poem, but my second class is acting out a scene from Romeo and Juliet. It has to be the most fun class I’ve had with them. It was great because all of the students were having a great time and we laughed a lot. I am excited to put on the scene with them on Monday. They have worked so hard on memorizing their lines and working on their pronunciation.
This week I started to read a new book, The Road to Character, by David Brooks. This book is a psychology/philosophy book about who we truly are as people. It is a bit complicated to understand at times, but I like it because it makes me think. I am only on the first few pages, but I am traveling next week and plan on reading a lot on the plane!
