And lo, I'm now officially a teacher.
The first class was reasonably ok - no one cried too much, no one threw the table over and stormed off in disgust, and no one exploded. That seems like a good enough result to me. It'll be a lot easier when I get the teaching books and stuff in the post; hopefully they'll arrive before the next class. The journey to their office is pretty long though, so I hope I get some more students a bit closer to home, but I'm not being too picky just yet.
Anyway, more importantly I have xrays of my mouth! They're cool, although it probably would have been cheaper just to use the photobooth option on the ipad and taken them myself. Soon I'll give them to Steve Martin in that film and he can work his magic.
In a bid to become a stronger independent WOOOOOman I've started scouring last fm for cool peeps with good tastes in musics and trying to befriend them. It's going pretty well so far - one guy who seems to run a couple of music websites has sent me one of his mixtapes with brasilian stuff on it - sounds decent enough from what I've heard so far, and another girl has invited me to an indie club in Lapa tonight which is apparently where the kool kids hang out and make party.
Tomorrow night there's a St Patricks Day themed bear party in the city centre too, which sounds....intriguing. Although, in what's increasingly sounding like an early Almodovar plot, I don't think we can go there because it's run by a group of violent transvestite gangsters.Hmm.
So, this weekend is mostly a toss up between going out to clubs and taking it easy and watching fillums. At the minute the fillums option is winning, because I'm a lazy bastard.
That is all.
Get a proper job!
