Quyana to the Akiuk Memorial School for welcoming me. The schedule for classes has been finalized and right now I am going to be interning at the 3rd grade classroom. It's so much better than going classroom to classroom as during the fall semester. Now I am in a contained classroom with the same students all day. They are so aryuqnarqeq, and I kind of missed lower elementary for a while.
Anyways, about Slaaviq!! Our house was second to the last house on the last day. They entered around 4:30 a.m. and the feeding and passing out candies weren't done until 7:30 a.m. That was so hard because everyone was so tired. My favorite part was when we had a guest speaker and he was talking about marriage. It was funny and embarrassing because Carl and I aren't married. Anyways, everyone loved our sea bird duck soup the most and one community member suggested we cook the same soup next year. Wow!!
I hope all is good. I am so thankful for the longer days. Wow!! It's not dark at 5:00 p.m. anymore. I hope you all enjoy the longer days, and this means summer is around the corner. Good day to you all! God Bless!!

The end of January is always welcome because you really begin to notice the increase in daylight almost from day to day. It's kind of like coming out of hibernation.
Good luck on your new, full-time assignment. Those third graders are lucky to have you! Let us know how it goes.
