Much ado...

Forgot to say this earlier. I'm getting quite embarrassed by the fuss being made over me because of my current uselessness. Yesterday I was driven to the cafeteria...it's about 200 metres from the office. But it's up a couple of steep hills, so the teachers insisted I be driven. And when I have to go to the hospital - despite my protestations that I can get a taxi - someone drives me (there's a note on the board of our office asking for volunteers - how humiliating!) I feel like a massive inconvenience to them all - they asked for an English teacher, not a burden!

But perhaps the funniest allowance being made for me is that my landlord - who only found out yesterday that I had hurt my ankle - now insists on driving me to school, until I'm better! Very nice of him, but I do feel so embarrassed.

Oh, and I did use my ankle as an excuse to get out of singing in front of a class yesterday - I said it had affected my voice...
