Safe and Sound

I made it!

Despite somehow not actually having a reservation on the flight from Vancouver to Seoul, I put my helpless-girl face to work and landed a seat on the plane. Arriving Thursday night around 930, the director and another teacher picked me up in style; we took the school bus home. I started teaching the next day, zero prep, zero training, and a less than adequate amount of sleep the night before. I survived, so I think that’s the most important thing thus far. I have an admirer in one of my classes – his name is Lion.. and he tells me “teacha so pre-tty” “I love you teacha” the other boys get jealous and yell “me too teacha, me too”… perhaps I should get the class under control and stop the random outbursts.. but man it does wonders for my self esteem.

My schedule is uber sweet.. I don’t ever start earlier than 3:30pm, and end at either 9:45 or 10:30. And Thursdays I don’t start until 8:10pm. This kid = spoiled.

My apartment is really cute.. The floors are heated, and I have a midget loft. I’ve posted a couple photos for your viewing pleasure -- (there’s room for you to visit too!)

Enjoy
