Good news!

I don't really have much to say about life in Korea. Work is the same. It's still fun. I still like it. I do have 2 exciting things to share though. First, Peter, our new teacher should be here by the end of next week, so hopefully life will slow down a little bit for Sophia and I. Second, DAD'S COMING TO VISIT ME!! February 2,3,4 is the Lunar New Year, so we have some time off. It hit me that it might be a good time for Dad to come. So I made a suggestion and he agreed! Yay! I'm very excited. The big news here is that Dad is missing Wrestling Regionals to make this journey. That's unheard of.This was Rex's last day. He and Molly were playing with teacher's face. He didn't leave my side all day. I miss him, but life is a lot easier in Robot class without his shenanigans.

So it was a pretty good week. The kids did good. I was lucky enough to get a lot of Sophia time! We found a Mexican restaurant! We stuffed ourselves with nachos and fajitas. It was beautiful. Friday night, Ian, Sophia and I went to dinner at our favorite galbi place. We then decided that it was time to see Sunny at Underground. The night went in the normal direction from there. We laughed a lot and it was fun to hang out with Phia again.

Some other exciting news is that SaraBrown has returned to the ROK. I haven't seen her yet, but I'm excited!

Today, I'm going to show you pictures of my friends. Not the kids. The kids haven't done anything cute to photograph. Although, I do have a quote. Justin, 10 years old, the boss' son. "Justin, what do you want to be when you grow up?" "I want to be a president, like Obama. Or a singer. Teacher, can Obama sing?" "I do not know." "I think he is dancer good. I like Obama."

One Year

Happy 2011!! I have officially been in the ROK for one year. 14 months til I come home! Heyoo!

It is Sunday night, the last night of vacation. Back to work tomorrow. Yay. Breaks always make me think that as much as I enjoy my job, I really like not working.

I didn't really do anything awesome over break. I slept a lot, I went to the post office, watched some movies and t.v, read, hung out with Sophia and her family, hung out with Ian, hung out with Elise, hung out with Yoanna, Sabine, and James, slept, played and lost a lot of games.

For New Years, Yoanna, Sabine, and I went to Ian's for dinner and Nintendo Wii. Then we went to a bar and played some darts and pool. It was pretty laid back but I thought it was a fun way to bring in the new year.

I am now 25 Korean age. 23 in real life.

Some pictures for you to admire.
