Hello from sunny Belgium!
So here I am, in a former monastry in the middle of nowhere for 4 weeks...
It's all good so far! Hot sunny weather, beautiful countryside and woods to walk in, not too much work, access to the swimming pool when I want...The only drawbacks being no public transport out of here, and mosquitos who like to bite.

Really enjoying the work, I have to lead grammar and language games workshops and take study and project groups. It's kind of hard explaining grammar rules though, have to read up on it lots before cos I am rubbish at grammar!

On sunday we went for a walk to the nearest small town (which has a supermarket, post office and a few cafes) it took an hour! But we found a really nice ice-cream place there so it was worth it!

Nearly break time which means food, yay!
A plus

I'm currently feeling very ill from the amount of dust in my room, I have no idea where it all comes from! I've just spent hours sorting and clearing and tidying and cleaning in there, to make it acceptable for guests to stay in over the next few days. I'm pretty pleased with the outcome! I found some interesting things during my sorting today, including lots of stories I wrote when I was about 10. They're pretty cool actually, although they're all basically rip-offs of all the books I liked to read at the time. I also found a song I wrote about the same age, and that is so bad it's funny!
The chorus goes:
"I don't really care anymore
I've herad it all before
Just the same old stories and games
I've seen them all before" x2
I can actually remember how the tune went if I think hard enough, that wasn't very interesting either!

In other things...it's my birthday tomorrow, woo! I am very excited, I'm gonna be so old and grown up! It is kinda depressing though that I still get asked for ID buying wine in a supermarket...

Wow back to this blog! It's been a while...
Last weekend I went back to Belgium for a couple of days for trianing for my summer job, it was so weird back! I stayed with some friends in the town I used to live in, and it felt so strange walking around there but not living there anymore. It was great to see people again though, I had a really lovely time. And I got to drink cherry beer again :) The training was ok, pretty boring though and not all that informative, but I do at least have a vague idea of what I'm going to be doing there now. Basically I'm working as an english assistant at a summer language school, and have to run workshops, for rich kids who have been sent away to learn English, that is my main task. In a really remote school...for 4 weeks...should be alright!
I start there in 2 weeks' time, but before then there are other exciting things, such as my birthday! 1 week today I'll be 21!! Woo!
