Another Productive weekend, but I'm worn out

I think I need a weekend where I seriously stay in my neighborhood.

I love being productive and always doing things, but I guess it's hard when I actually have to work a job that tires me out as well.  I feel like I put so much energy into the last two hours of my work day, but perhaps I do put a lot of energy into the other part of the day too.  It's definitely not easy to get my workouts in at night, but they get done anyway.

The kids are fun, these days.  With the exception of a pair of twins having a sword fight with their tongues, I haven't had anything real strange happen lately.  One girl tries to the pull up my coworker Amelia's skirt during class once a week -- of course we share the same class, so I have to look away asap.  Just like usual with jobs here, I'm outnumbered by women.

I really see myself out of here in about seven months.  . . . . I'm making an impact on a church here, but I really need to be impacting a church in Tennessee or Kentucky instead.

Anyway, this weekend I took part in an event entitled Global Awareness 10km in Their Shoes -- this was to show awareness for countries that have suffered through natural disasters in the past year or so. It was a fun event, where my church friend Chote and I meet quite a few people from Korea, and other pasts of the world.  The walk wasn't exactly 10km, but the weather was beautiful.  If only we didn't stop and take 10,000 pictures, things would have been a little more exciting.  We did do some video footage to send to the countries we were showing support for.  Those countries would be Pakistan, Chile, Haiti, Turkey, Japan, and Thailand.
Chote and I were part of Team Pakistan, in honor of Khan, who attends our church and is a native of Pakistan.
