Alison does Costa Rica

Yesterday I was thinking that maybe I could quit my job and become a pro surfer, as I was getting up on all kinds of waves (allegedly, waves 4-5 ft high...according to questionable witness (questionable as he seems to be keen on finding an American girlfriend)). However today I was attacked by the board, meaning a gash on my left leg, a bruise on my right, a rash on my belly. Also, the ocean was not allowing me to stand up for some reason.
Think I need a bit of a break, which should be okay since tomorrow is Monday and school tends to actually take place early in the week (later in the week, school is often cancelled for mysterious ¨teacher meetings¨in other towns, futbol games, and rain.)
My teaching is going well and the kids seem to like me. I am somewhat a celebrity in town as everywhere I walk a little student is waving & yelling ¨Teacher, teacher!¨or Äll-ee-son.¨ This doesn´t mean they choose to listen in class or sit in their seats when I ask.
