The new schedge

Yesterday I didn’t get a chance to write because Jurie received his class schedule. He is a level 3 teacher and will be teaching grammar, reading and writing. He has a full schedule. We spent the time prepping together, had supper and then relaxed.

This morning when I got to my desk I found my schedule. EEEEKKKK! Not a jumping for joy eeeekkkk but oh dear, I hope they don’t expect me to teach today, eeeekkkk. I found the coordinator and apparently she just received my schedule too. She told me not to worry, I could spend the day preparing for tomorrow’s classes…PHEW!

I’m also a level 3 teacher, I will be teaching the same things as Jurie. YAY! Helping Jurie prep yesterday has paid off. Another plus is that we are in the same boat, we both haven’t a clue when it comes to the administrative duties, not quite sure if that is a plus. We also can help each other prep! YAY Team van D.

The only slightly annoying thing is that I am not really sure where the students are in the book but I know where they are supposed to be, if that makes sense. Information is slowly trickling in. For example,  we were told at 13:45 that we had a meeting at 14:00. Cool...so we are just going to plead ignorance is something ever goes wrong :)  

When we got back to the motel, we decided to go shopping for furniture. We bought a double bed, cupboard, dressing table, fridge, hot plate, oven, 2 pillows and kettle for R10 000. I gagged but Jurie said that we bought it all new and asked me how much would all these cost new in South Africa...shrugs. 

Everything is going to be delivered to our new place on Thursday. I think tomorrow we are going to look into getting wifi for our place (which I think we should have done first) and we are also going to open a bank account on our own. Stay tuned to the next episode of "The van D's in Ibra." 

This is the new schedge that has me overthinking everything...Yay to how my brain works!
