My Favorite Karaoke Song ^_^

Ghenghis Khan
Dschinghis Khan

Hu, ha, hu, ha... hu, ha, hu, ha...
Hu, ha, hu, ha... hu, ha, hu, ha...
Hu, ha, hu, ha, hu, ha, hu, ha...

They rode the fastest horses
Left the wind behind
Thousand men
Ha, hu, ha...
And one man led the way
The others followed by:
Genghis Khan
Ha, hu, ha...

They gallopped over mountains and desert-sands
They carried desolation throughout the land
And nothing there could stop them in this world
Hu, ha...

Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Hey, brother; ho, brother; hey, brother
Hear us holler

Who cares where we're going
Ho, ho, ho, ho...
There's no way of knowing
Ha, ha, ha, ha...
And we'll let the Devil take our souls

Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Go, brother; dream, brother; dance, brother
Hear us holler

You can hear his laughter
Ho, ho, ho, ho...
Now and ever-after
Ha, ha, ha, ha...
When he lifts his glass up in the air

He was the greatest lover
And the strongest man
Of his day
Ha, hu, ha...
And we have heard that
All the women fell for him
So they say
Ha, hu, ha...

And he bred seven children in one whole night
He had his girls around him at his very sight
And nothing that could stop him in this world
Hu, ha...

Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Hey, brother; ho, brother; hey, brother
Hear us holler

Who cares where we're going
Ho, ho, ho, ho...
There's no way of knowing
Ha, ha, ha, ha...
And we'll let the Devil take our souls

Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
Go, brother; dream, brother; dance, brother
Hear us holler

You can hear his laughter
Ho, ho, ho, ho...
Now and ever-after
Ha, ha, ha, ha...
When he lifts his glass up in the air
Ha... hu, ha, hu...

Never slow down, never grow old

So my school has a two week break coming up! Exciting right. I was going to relax, help out in the English Olympics, and take a trip to my old haunt in the Cho...but my director, the wonderful man, pimped me out to be an instructor for an Seminar catering to English teachers from the Western Providences (even told me to miss this next week of school so that I could participate in the entire first part). Now, opportunity wise this is going to be great! Its good experience to get under my belt, will look good on applications and what not. On the other hand, its work, a LOT of work...8 hours a day, 6 days a week, for 3 weeks. The other foreign teachers get a lovely $500 for their work. And me...that's right, I'm a Peace Corps Volunteer...I get a lovely pat on the back and thank you for coming. I know that sounds bitter, and sure it is kinda a hard deal to swallow, but then I think about the glorious 3 weeks of living with a hot shower, prepared meals, warm bed...and you know what I get giddy just thinking about it! I can visit the Cho later, really who want to take a 16hour bus ride in this once again cold weather (it has snowed a good 2inches today)? So I will try and "gournal" while I'm at the tourist camp and then type it up when I get back to the big city. We will see.

I've still got the final remains of a cold that just loves me too much to go away, but I think that being in a steadily warm environment will finally kill it!

Happy Birthday to Meredith who is 22 today. Scary. Even scarier is the fact that I will be 24 in about 2 months. Yanna

Back to lesson planing!
