I See You in the Club

As I was walking into the library one of the 7th graders said:

"Miss! You like Akon?" and then started singing, "I see you in the club and I want to get with yoooouuuuuuuuu." As he did this he also started doing this little jig that looked like something that Akon would NEVER attempt.

Shortly after this another boy that follows me everywhere said:

"Miss, I have a friend and I call him Kanu and on his birthday we dance like this." He then started doing a dance that was a cross between High School Musical and epileptic shock. These children are so strange.

We gave them a writing assignment where they have to pretend to be the madman from "The Tell-Tale Heart" writing a diary entry in their own personal diaries. Without any instruction at all a little boy handed me back his paper and it said:

"Ha, ha, ha I am the madman and I will kill everyone except my wife because I am afraid of her. My wife beats me everyday before I sleep."
I almost died laughing-I guess women aren't totally suppressed in this country.

I can't believe I only have three weeks left. Amelia will be here next week and we are going to take a boat across the Arabian Sea (like 9 km.) to see some jungle and caves on the other side. The whole trip takes like an hour and a half to get there which makes me wonder what the hell kind of boat we are taking....paddle? :/
