The Internet just called me lazy. There’s this search on the Taipei bus site where you can input your starting point and your ending point, and it will tell you what buses to take to get there. I was trying to figure out how to get to Ikea from the bus stop closest to our place, and it told me that the distance is rather close so please try to get some exercise and walk there. Thanks a lot, Internet.

On another note, my 5th graders are driving me crazy. They talk a lot and take out their little exacto knives (which apparently they use to sharpen their pencils, and those things are allowed in schools??) and play with them. I think we’re going to do some assigned seating come Friday, and put the two worst students in separate corners.

However, I love my 2nd graders. They’re all angels and so smart, and we also finish early so we always get to play games. We’ve played a lot of Hangman, so I’m going to try and figure out some new games we can play to spice it up a bit.
