Working Woman

It's go time now...I am officially done with all schooling and education for the time being and have turned the tables...I am now the educator. I am still working on filling up my schedule with classes, but last week I started teaching some teenagers, and today I started my job at Rolls Royce. Yes, I am teaching Rolls Royce Madrid English. Today was just the first group, and I have a new group of students tomorrow, but both groups are totally basic. We practiced saying "hello, how are you?" and "what's your name?" today. It was fun, definitely better than kids classes. Anyway, so the plan is to fill up the rest of my hours, and then I will be a successful working woman. It's harder than that though ,as last week I spent runnign around to interviews, emailing people in Spanish, having Spanihs people call my cell phone, sitting in front of my computer waiting for emails, and all mostly in vain as most people want the same window of time.
Besides that, Madrid has started taking down the 2016 Olympic signs. A big party was planned for Friday, but did not happen. The weather has been excellent lately, so between interviews and running around I have enjoyed some time outside. Some friends and I went hiking a little outside of Madrid on Saturday--La Pedriza was the area, lots of mountains. We also made a very Spanish meal (tortilla(egg, potato, and onion), and bread with olive oil) and ate it at a very Spanish time (10pm). We also made hummus, and I am never ever going to buy it again becaues it is so much cheaper and tastes better made fresh ! I have become quite a cook over here because grocery shopping is very inexpensive.
time for lesson planning!
hasta luego!
