Give Away!

One of my students brought me a calendar a couple weeks ago and it's been sitting on my desk ever since... but it wasn't until yesterday that I realized that the calendar has pictures of my school, my students, and ME! Yep, I'm the most featured teacher! I'm in there twice! :)



Before I received this calendar, I had already printed my own and posted it to my wall, so I'm going to give my school calendar away as a fun FREE KOREAN GIVE AWAY!! It will be mailed to the person who comments below and tells me why they want it or deserve it! So, let the comments begin! Good luck!

My new little babies!

This year, I'm teaching the kindergardners twice a week; Tuesday's and Thursdays for 30 mins each time! Aren't they adorable?!

I've had this class for 2 weeks now, and they already know how to say, My name is _____. What's your name? Nice to meet you, and the words: book, red, yellow, orange, green, blue, purple, brown, black, white, and their numbers 1-10! I like to think I'm just an amazing teacher, but the truth is, these kids are like sponges! They soak up everything!

Last class we read a book called "Bark George" and did a color by numbers to practice their numbers and colors! They are so eager to learn English and are probably my favorite to teach! :)

We didn't finish coloring Mickey last class, but they were excited, none the less, to show of their coloring jobs!

Who knew I would love little kids so much?! They bring so much joy to my week!

Catch a cold...

I'm pretty sure the reason we wear masks is to NOT catch a cold, but whatever! :)

Don't forget to brush your teeth!

This is the teeth brushing hallway at my friend Kelly's elementary school in Gumi, S. Korea! After lunch, all of the kids and teachers in korea grab their toothbrushes and head to the sinks! (At my school, they head to the bathroom sinks.) This was the first time I'd actually seen an entire hallway designed for teeth brushing! Not a bad idea though!

Korean cross dressers!

I love taking walks in Korea, because you never know what you're going to see! Sunday, I took a walk with Aaron from Songdo Beach to Nampodong (about a 1.5 mile walk along the beach and harbor). Spring is definitely approaching! The skies were blue, the sun was out, and the cherry blossoms are starting to bloom all around! Goodbye Winter! :)

When we entered Jagalchi Fish Market, we spotted this very interesting cross-dressing couple who were singing karaokee and dancing in the middle of the market!


Now really... What in the world possesses a grown man to do something like this in public?!


I will say... he was very excited about having his picture taken and motioned for me to come over to dance with him... which, yes, I did! I couldn't pass up the opportunity! The first thing he did when I went over to him was grabbed my hands and placed them on his very padded bra! eeehhhh! hahaha
