Summer English Just Started - I'm Dying

This is my first week back full time at Readership and it has been pretty hard. There's probably several things contributing to this. The few weeks before I had an over abundance of free time. I was consistantly waking up after 12 pm and staying up at least until 4 am most nights. The second problem is that there's some sort of damn virus running around Hong Kong. People all around me are coughing and sneezing and generally seem to be sick, but it isn't a really bad sickness. But I know I'm sick, I woke up the other day with that "something crawled into my throat and died" feeling. I've been really going through my mouthwash in the morning.

The upside to the summer courses is that I get to be with a lot of cute kids again. Some of them I've met before, others I'm just seening for the first time. We're a little short on English teachers so if anyone is looking fire me off a message if you plan on being in Hong Kong.

The other good news so far is that I finally got paid a portion of what was owed to me by SME Education centre in Yau Ma Tei. They're still a poorly run operation but some people seem to be trying to fix things.
