We all got a case of the hyper giggles today after our visit to the school. The energy from the students apparently transferred to us when we left because we were all hopping around and babbling in Runglish. I'll have to admit, I was incredibly apprehensive about the whole thing. Working with children in English scares me enough! But I actually ended up having a great time. The Russian students all spoke excellent English and were eager to practice so they were very friendly. The two girls I sat with asked me all kinds of questions about music, movies, and my life in Moscow. Then they asked me eagerly, "So what do you want to learn?" So I got to ask them all kinds of phrases and slang terms. They told me my pronunciation was good, which made me feel good. I ended up having a really good time and I think that I will wind up learning a lot of Russian from my interactions with them in the future.
