I originally created this blog to make sure I don't lose my English but after about two months of living in Taipei, I realized that I need to improve my Chinese...oh and of course improving my English won't hurt either :)

Surprise Birthday
Tonight for my A11 class, my students planned a surprise birthday for my CT. Her birthday is on the 26th but since we only meet on a Friday, they wanted to celebrate since it's coming up. They came to class early and bought me a bubble milk tea. It was really sweet and they got my CT a drink plus cake but they had to pick it up and so we had to devise a plan to stall my CT from teaching for the second hour. First we decided that two students would have to leave early to get the cake. Since they start class at 8:30, I wanted them to leave 10 mins. early. Originally I was going to pretend that they would have to do a make up test but the only problem was that they would have to be outside the classroom but my CT would see that they weren't outside. While the two students were going to get the cake, I had my other coworker talk to my CT about her class and ask her what she should do to plan her class for tomorrow.
I talked to the secretaries to let them know that two of my students were leaving to get a cake for our CT. The only problem was that I couldn't have the students do a make up test since she would see them so I wanted them to pretend to be naughty to get kicked out of the class and be forced to be on the second floor. The only thing was that they are both really good students and it was hard for both of them to be "naughty." lol I yelled at them and finally I just pretended to get angry about something little and told them that they had to go outside to work on their voc. together on the second floor. At first I didn't think it would work since my CT looked at me and was surprised that I was getting so angry. But then the two students started to not pay attention and be "naughty" and then I said they had to go downstairs which then my CT agreed.
It was hard to get mad at them since they weren't really being naughty but luckily my CT fell for it and they left and got the cake. Then my other coworker distracted my CT during the breaktime while the other students were finishing up writing the birthday card and setting up the cake. Then I got my CT to go to the classroom and while were going to the classroom the lights were shut off and she goes, wow they are playing with me and it was funny since we surprised her with the cake. It was awesome since they bought streamers and they were thrown in the air. It was hilarious and it was funny since my CT says I never get angry and that she was going to call the parents of the two students that were acting up lol
Pictures above are from the birthday party. I just love this class. They are really best!
