I know this is a couple of weeks late, but here are some pictures from the St. Patrick's Day party at school. Obviously no alcohol was served, but there were chips and soda and some activities. I'll put some videos up later because they are pretty funny, but they take a long time and my battery is running low. Look for pictures next month from our Easter Eggstravaganza!
There was a big crowd of students! Right now they are listening to Denis giving a history of St. Patrick.
Musical chairs, unfortunately not to Irish music, but it was fun nevertheless.
Uh oh wipe out
Next some volunteers were blindfolded and had to try to guess what the different green drinks were (I guess there was no point in dying them green if they were blindfolded but it was part of the St. Patrick's day spirit. While trying to prepare the drinks on a tiny counter space we got green dye everywhere, including one of the receptionist's white scarfs [WOW what am I supposed to do about possession and plural-ness there?? - sorry if my bad punctuation offended anyone] but luckily it was on the tassle so I just cut it off...shhh...).
Any guesses?
There was also a find-the-leprechaun scavenger hunt but I didn't manage to get any pictures of that. And lastly, there was a potato race. Contestants started with potatoes on spoons and raced through our hallway, but if it fell you couldn't touch it, so you had to roll it with the [flimsy plastic] spoon. It was pretty funny I have to say, and it was hilarious when we found out one of the students used a rubber band to keep in on there.
Pretty great picture of everyone. That's me on the left, a student - Melih - next to me, then my new boss Paul, then a student Oyku, and finally another teacher Denis.
Yeah...Turkish girls are kind of glamorous. Why I'm here I don't know.
Just some more students.
