Back to school today!..
Yoon Jin is in the hospital with swine flu :(:(:( so I will not be doing any teaching until she returns (the kids can't understand English well enough for me to teach without her). More and more I am realizing I need to learn Korean if I am to be effective here. I can't keep depending on other people being able to speak and understand English... after all, I am IN KOREA!!! I have been in need of a serious attitude adjustment - and thankfully I got it :) So, now that I am going to be shut up alone in my "office" probably for the rest of this week, I can just focus on studying studying studying.
One of my coteachers took me to the immigration office today, and I got to see Chuncheon from a whole new angle... it was breathtakingly beautiful. How quickly I forget these amazing things when my focus is inward (i.e. I am homesick, I am sad, I am cold, I I I I I - enough with the I)! Time to get in gear!

I read how serious swine flu was in Korea. saw pictures people are sanitizing bus and subway..handles and stuffs. Be careful.
ReplyDeleteLearning Korean will be fun for you. You can learn chinese character as well.
It will get colder...and you will have lots of snow too. Hope you have warm winter coat.
15 years in America, I still struggle with speaking English..well, I learned to laugh at my own mistakes. Be brave. People may look like laughing at you when you make mistakes, but they are laughing without bad thoughts or any intention to make you feel little...
Good night. o, it is morning over there.
Thanks! Yes, swine flu is pretty bad here... I am fighting it as best I can! Good morning to you :)
