Malang To Semarang

So I have my finished my training in the lovely cool Malang in East Java and now I am living in the lovely hot and sticky Semarang which is the capital of central Java. I will be living here for the next few months teaching in a senior high school. Which has 1955 students - major change from teaching 16 students!It's hard to get used to be called Mrs.Aileen and everyone going on about me having a Javanese husband even getting called Mrs Ipung sometimes-emmm! I have taken up residence with one of the English teachers, her family, and their maid. I am a bit freaked out with being waited on. I also am being forced to eat continously. It's strange living with people. I've been a loner for the past 2 years!I have been thrown in the deep end at school - they just throw me into a class room and say talk to them. Indonesian kids are great though not at all shy - asking me all about my husband. Not at all as shy as Japanese students!
