this week was farsang (far-shong) at ZIG (my school). it's a celebration of sorts where kids dress up to scare winter away/welcome spring/just have fun. it's like halloween in america, except high schoolers still dress up and go to school... and there's no candy.
when i got to school that day one of my kids (the kid in the hat behind the cowgirls) was in the hall waiting for me. i got close to the classroom door and he flashed me! all he was wearing under his trench coat was an undershirt and some tighty whities (that were aqua). what the!?!?

9A
this is one of the assistant principals.
later he was joined by a group of playboy bunnies.
some students of mine... nuns and playboy bunnies.
some 12Cers... they are the cleaning ladies (aren't they cute?)... and a scary fairy.
these kids - dressed as the #10 bus - came into a few of my classes to count how many students dressed up. they even made beeping sounds when they backed up.
this is gabi - one of two teachers who dressed up.
here are laci and aniko'. laci found someone's sword and tried to kill aniko' with it. she doesn't seem to mind. they are so freaking funny!
here i am with agi on farsang. we are not trying to scare winter away. we're just sweeties.
here is 11E (wind up doll, gogo girl, part of the scooby gang - the rest are in another class - and a certain cowboy who makes me laugh so much in class)
aww, velma and daphnie from scooby doo. (later these girls and i went to a costume shop so i could scout the wig selection available for drama festival)
11A - balasz and david didn't really dress up, one had fake tteth, the other a sign pinned onto his hoodie. a school girl, devil girl, wizzardess, bunny, and little kid. good bunch, i like 'em.
how does he even know who that is?
all in all, farsang was fun. there was an hour-long contest in the gym during school to decide who had the best costumes. i wasn't in a place to get some great pics, so i didn't take pics of the winners. JOKER was the best one... he was terrifying. if i can get the school's photographer's pics, maybe i'll post some another time.

some of those costumes are GREAT! i love the wind-up doll and the bus. and i can't believe they dress up as playboy bunnies - i'm pretty sure you'd get sent home if you dressed like that here (even if it wasn't even revealing - just mentioning "playboy" would probably be an i.s.s.)
i thought you WERE going to dress up?!? does that mean you couldn't give your vocab test?
oh yeah. i was gonna dress up but the only idea i had another teacher did last year, so i just decided not to.
the rule is that if most of the kids in a class dress up then the teacher can't give them a test. but if the teacher dresses up too, then he/she can give a test.
i wanted to be nice to the kiddies, and since someone was dressed up in all of my classes, i decided to postpone the test for my thursday classes. they are so lucky.
i also wished people a happy farsang all day long and every single time i did someone told me that they really don't wish people happy farsang. i didn't care because i like saying 'i wish you a happy farsang' in hungarian. :)
That is hysterical! I thought we had a great Spirit Week, but yours was amazing. Loved the pics and the idea.
i think i'm gonna dress up tomorrow to see if i can scare away winter...
that looks like so much fun! I'm with sister, I like the windup doll, too! I'm SO gonna steal those ideas for halloween!!!
what was your idea, outta curiousity?
to borrow an elaborate sombrero from the mexican restaurant across the street from my flat and be a mariachi person. sadly, the spanish teacher did it last year. the same sombrero i wanted from the same restaurant! poo.
