Red Group

Oh my red group. I adore them. A list of their hobbies and interests include the following: 

• shouting HELLO TEACHA BRAAANN every time they saw me
• singing, or
• laughing at me when I sing, or
• playing games that involve singing
• doing the hokey-pokey while laughing hysterically the entire time
• mauling me whenever I turned on the front camera
• ducking their heads under the table when reviewing the rules, then
• being surprised when I realized they were still at the table and hadn't disappeared altogether

This is Angela. She's very quiet and shy but she loved us all so much. She was constantly giving hugs and little grins. 

Here is Zack. Zack has the cutest smile of any person I've seen on earth and also the biggest ears I've ever seen on a child. He would wave to me every day, then count on his fingers from 1 to 10 and say, "High five!" and give me a double high five. He probably weighs like 30 pounds but he is the cutest little stick child. 

This is Karo, who has the best laugh in the world. Toward the tend of the semester, we all look to calling him KAROOOoooooo which always produced this face. In fact, I'm pretty sure that's what produced this face for this picture. 

Kiki was very quiet and shy just like Angela, but she was not as sweet as Angela. In fact, she was kind of a little booger which nobody would ever expect. She liked to tease other kids which was not chill, but she also would stop when you told her to, so that was really nice.

Bailey is a pageant girl. Very sassy. She always wore very complex and fashionable outfits to school, usually including hats or bows. Not sure how that worked out for nap time, but whatever. 

This is Aric, who can spell which never ceased to amaze me. Also he came up with spontaneous sentences from nowhere so that was amazing as well. He's in love with Cindy and would always spell her name, nbd. 

Here's Cindy. She and Aric live in the same apartment complex and I'm pretty sure their parents have probably arranged their marriage by now because they are SO IN LOVE. They hold hands everywhere they go. It was a rough day when I had to split them up. 

Joe was my first favorite student and stayed one of my faves throughout the semester. He has brown wavy hair which is possibly one of the reasons why he stuck out to me in the first place. He's kind of a strange one, because he's a little bit shy, but also not... I don't know. Anyway, I dig him a lot. 

If you follow me on Insta (@bbryyyn, peeps) you know I AM OBSESSED WITH FRANK. Oh my gosh. He is one of the biggest trouble makers but oh my heavens he is adorable and really so sweet. I taught him how to say "I love you" because I said it to him every morning. His parents own a chain of restaurants in Southern China and they fed us for free like four times, then brought snacks to school functions a couple times too. His mom is beautiful and I love her dearly. One of the saddest things to me is how I could never adequately express how much I love Frank and Grace because language barriers uuggghhh. Anyway, on our last day, he said my name for the first time ever, the little booger. He said "Goodbye, Teacher Bryn. I love you." Then he kissed my cheek and I walked out of the room and died inside forever.
