I have a lot to report on but don't want to keep making these really long posts so a quick re-cap.
Last week: Introduced myself to classes on Mon & Tues, grades 1 & 2 (like 6 & 7) went on a 3 day field trip so I didn't teach any classes Weds- Fri. Friday, I went with the 3rd year students to Everland (http://www.everland.com/MultiLanguage/english/index.html) an amusement park near Seoul. Round trip bus ride on some pretty nice coach buses was about 4 hours, spent about 6 1/2 hours at the park taking pictures, went on a couple of rides but the one I really wanted to go on had an almost 3 hour wait sooo didn't go on it. Weather was quite nice and even managed a small sun burn.
The weekend was pretty quiet with spotty internet access which is why my blogs have also been infrequent. I will post pics of the trip to Everland when I can. This week I had my Thursday classes Monday and vice versa. I finally got my address and my two new friends Amanda and Ellen called a taxi and went with me to the grocery store. What an adventure! Also, wow is fruit expensive! So I stick with my pb&j, "cheese", and eggs as far as cooking at home goes. Yeah not being too adventurous yet with cooking at home. Then the girls rode home in the taxi with me and I made them pb&j sandwiches for the first time.. I believe their reaction was about like mine was to kimchi... Ohhh this is interesting. And we ALL know what interesting implies! hahahaha
Today May 15th is Teacher Appreciation Day which means no classes. Lots of activities that I will update tomorrow! :)
