There is an after and before school enrichment program. The very nice lady who is responsible for managing it put out a message to the staff:
"Please encourage your new students and non-exiting students to register for the after school program." (we only get to keep the international students for about a year before they are integrated into the 'learning centers) on their way to the regular schools)
My Librarian and I both did mind blips at the same place in reading that, wouldn't everyone add an S to 'non-exiting' to make it 'non-existing' students?
In other interesting note, I am reading and hugely enjoying Anne Bishop's Written in Red. There are beings called The Others who are really the landlords of the planet. The Others are made up of unearthly entities, terra indigene; Sanguinati (Vampires), Shape shifters that are known as Wolfgard, Beargard, Corvine (Crowgard) and others such, there's the Elementals (Winter, Spring, Air etc) and a few others.
The story catches at my mind and so some poor child asks for help finding a book, a book on The Elements. Yep sent him over to the 551s which are weather and other environmental occurrences like earthquakes and such. He looked there and came back looking confused. *GRINS* After a metaphoric self head slap I took him over to the Chemistry section. Elements not Elementals. *sighs* The second book, A Murder of Crows comes out end of February, day before my birthday. Public Library only put it onto their coming soon circulation available lists recently. I am on the top of that list. *GRINS GRINS*
