Just a not usual Friday

I like Fridays. I like them because we have only 3 hours of Bulgarian. We were supposed to do a test today, so I did it in advance to see my progress. It is more or less a progress test in our textbook, that’s why I could do it before today’s lesson. We did it as I expected, each of us read one sentence and filled in a gap or chose the right answer, which I consider totally useless for seeing our progress.

Anyway, since I had everything done, I was free to disturb the others who looked as bored as I was. We had some fun, but unfortunately our teacher didn’t agree with our entertainment, so we had to stop it :( Martin from France commented on my extracurricular activity: „And you are going to be a teacher.“ If I was such a boring teacher, I wouldn’t mind my students doing the same, I think :-)

After the classes we went to a Natural Historical Museum in Burgas. It was small, full of dead animals which were introduced by not-well-English-speaking-guide. All in all, it was nice to see what kind of animals live around here.

Finishing our meals in a Chinese restaurant, where jokes about cats started and are still on (even several days afterwards), we went back to our hotel.

On the way, there is a small Macmillan bookshop, which I was curious about, respectively about the stuff they have inside. So I encouraged myself to enter it. There was not enough space to show all books they have, thus a shop assistant offered me some help. She was one of the few people who can speak English here and looked really happy she can speak in this language with me. As she said, she doesn’t have many chances to speak in English. We had a nice talk, she recommended me some interesting textbooks for my teaching in Sliven and gave me several wall posters (e.g.with picture map of London), which I really appreciated. Since high school I have wanted to have some at home :))

In the evening we almost all went to the club. To be honest, the club era ended for me more or less when I was sixteen. Unexpectably it was fun, even though I didn’t drink alcohol.

The next morning was not such fun, because we had to wake up „early“ for our Nesebar trip. About it I’ll write in my next blog entry :)
