Enjoying onself at Vicky & Lionel's Wedding...I really had good time with my friends there...and how about that special cocktail bar of pina coladas...it was a wedding to remember with everything so well organized; besides being in good company makes all the difference. I would have had regrets had I not gone to this fabulous occasion.
Treasure Hunt @ The Silent City
Chilling out in Mdina with a group of students, mostly Turkish students - assistant researchers at their respective universities; who managed to secure a fund of money to finance their three-month stay in Malta together with their studies. I had the honour to teach them and they also had their share of knowledge to impart. We really got on well together and managed to build up a relationship which I know will last after they depart from the small rocky island of Malta which they have come to love as their second home; except that things are much more expensive here than in Turkey.
The treasure hunt which we were supposed to have ended more like a guided tour. They were more after history and visiting important historical sites rather than running around, asking for directions and spotting the clues they had to find if they were to follow the instructions I handed them earlier as soon as we got off the bus. We really enjoyed ourselves and managed to spend 5 full hours inside Mdina walls...We promised ourselves to head back some day later to explore what we still had not yet explored.

Teaching English By force of good habit, I decided to go back to IELS and spend some weeks teaching English to foreign students. I really had good time there; and managed to get along so well with the students. It is really satisfying when you know that you're getting across and that you're striking a chord. That is what you get in return for all the hard work and preparation.
But in the end I really got tired and wanted to have a well-deserved break; thus I decided to call it a day in mid-summer (aug 15); I also had to prepare handouts, ppts and lesson plans for the coming scholastic year, given that I also have new duties to attend to at school. As for now I've managed to finish so many tasks and I'm almost ahead of schedule.
