http://fogeyes.blogspot.com/2006/09/im-getting-better.html
Monday, September 11, 2006. Well, I survived my first (long) week of school and now I'm starting week 2. I think I'm in a better place than I was even yesterday.just very culture shocked, tired, fearful, and frustrated. This morning I taught three wonderful ladies at English services and that helped me to relax. I CAN do this! I think the key to all of it is to retain a constant posture of learning, even when I'm the teacher. Humility goes a LONG way in this profession! Last night as I was on the train b...

FOG: Music Class
http://fogeyes.blogspot.com/2006/09/music-class.html
Wednesday, September 20, 2006. So yesterday was the best (and worst) day yet! So I grabbed the mic and sang such hits as Killing me Softly, Wonderwall, and some assorted Beatles. It was a blast! They asked me to play some piano and guitar, but I balked there on account of the fact that I haven't practiced in some time! The only bad thing about the day was that I had to teach about 9 hours.yuck. My thoat hurt a bit afterwards! But today is a new day, and His mercies are new! Happy birthday, friend! Techno...

FOG: I'm Old!
http://fogeyes.blogspot.com/2006/10/im-old.html
Thursday, October 12, 2006. So much has happened since I last updated! The next weekend took me to Bratislava, Slovakia, where we had a CA meeting and got to visit the ESI teachers who live there. The meeting went kind of long (7 hours.yay), but I got a chance to have some great conversations with Barb Kellum, the wife of the most popular ESI teacher in Budapest.the one, the only, Sam Kellum! Fast forward to yesterday, my 24th birthday! Posted by Andrew Straight 3:14 PM. View my complete profile.

FOG: June 2006
http://fogeyes.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 29, 2006. Oh what a night. God is so faithful. And speaking of God's faithfulness, thank you so much to all those who have donated money to help me get to Prague. You are a huge blessing in my life, and I pray that the Lord will bless you tenfold in return! I still don't have my address in the Czech Republic yet, but as soon as I do I will make it a permanent fixture of this site. And now for something not entirely different.

Tuesday, September 12, 2006. Posted by Andrew Straight 1:49 AM. At first I thought you were holding a giant blue balloon in the picture. Then I realized you weren't. I am really glad to run into your Czech blog, Andrew. I have a new job teaching English at the public elementary schools in Japan; I moved three weeks ago and things are going really well. I hope you are doing great and loving life! PS I know about you joining Facebook. I knew you'd give in eventually. View my complete profile.

The First Day of School.sort of. Monday, September 04, 2006. The First Day of School.sort of. Today was the official first day of school, which lasted a total of about 40 minutes. The entire school gathered right outside my window (in the playground behind our flat/the school) and got their schedules. Then the headmaster, André, introduced the new teachers (including me), and then I got to give a little speech to the entire school. Tons of fun! Posted by Andrew Straight 8:06 AM.

FOG: Long December
http://fogeyes.blogspot.com/2006/12/long-december.html
Friday, December 08, 2006. Whenever one has too much or too little to do, one is in danger of becoming paralyzed. Unfortunately, these two states of being have simultaneously descended upon me, causing not paralyzation, but rather, writer's block, or more precisely, "Writer's Neglect." Do you ever go through periods in life when the last thing you want to do is the thing you need to do? Something fantastic, and yes, noteworthy, occurs in my life. And so, after much ado. Rather than reinventing the wheel ...

Wednesday, May 10, 2006. Thank you, Julia Reid, for all the time and effort and patience and self-sacrifice you put into A) this amazing blog that I couldn't have even begin to create without you! And B) our friendship. You are an amazing person and I am sorry I haven't been around as much this past month. thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankouthankyouthankyou!
