New Years Resolutions, a speaking exercise

This week the students are making their own resolutions as a speaking exercise and then sharing with the class. Here is by far the best one:

'In 2007 I will not be too sweet because my girlfriend is diabetic'

Now that is just lovely. I had a pretty good laugh during class after that one.

On the other end of things, I've been wondering what to do when I get back, seeing as it might be sooner than I previously thought. Passing through my mind has been trying to get into some archaeology or something to do with my degree (anthropology). There is a summer field school ran by the UO that I could do. I know that I don't want to go back to normal school yet, although it's still a possibility in the future. I started looking for internships in archaeology or anthropology yesterday online. I figure that it would be worth a shot, try some things out, although I would like to stay in Portland, for at least a little while after I get back of course. No need to run off right away when I've been away for awhile already. Ok, not much else to say there as I should go grab an espresso before I start teaching. Cheers...
