this past week in school seemed slightly to drag on...how i dont know...i think it was the fact that we had to go to school everyday. all 5 days. (i love that i have a real job as a teacher and i still call it going to school instead of going to work...) the past 2 weeks there have been holidays and field trips that seemed to make everyday seem like friday. also, after our teachers meeting i have been working harder at keeping the attention of the class and not allowing their misbehavior as much. but it seems to me that behavior problems are just part of being a teacher. so deal with it. :) and i shall.
on wednesday i went to the british embassy and joined some scottish dancing. i am hoping this will be a regular occurence for me. it changes things up. plus it was AWESOME!!!! though the room of 30 to 40 people consisted mainly of white foreigners i ended up with the group of Koreans and they were awesome! we were whooping and hollering between "yogi!" (go here) and go there. and set here and set there. sweet time. i have awesome been contemplating a belly dancing class. this has been something i have wanted to do for a very long time. there is a class with a canadian who has studied in India and several other countries. once a week, $60 for a month. so im seriously thinking about it. muhuhahahaah, so back to my weekend of pleasant surprises.
well on friday night baejee showed up at work with her boyfriend who i had never met but heard quite a few stories about. to celebrate their completion of exams the three of us went out for Mr. Pizza. baejee didn't know where to go to eat and thought i would not want to have pizza because we just had pizza. i told her, um, baejee that was like 2 weeks ago, and in america i eat pizza every friday night. its tradition. to which was her reply - i want to go to america. :)we had some great conversations about music, america, korea, oh everything. her boyfriend lived a few of his younger years in washington state as his father got his masters degree so his english was good and also he had some experiences to compare. i really enjoy talking to koreans about korea. ahhhh! the intercultural experience!
