I woke up early today, about 5:30am,
to prepare for school. Once at school I taught two 80-minute L.A. classes back
to back, then lunch, then the last 80-minute L.A. class. The last class was
difficult though, and probably will be a lot of times, because it’s right after
lunch. 80 minutes is a long time too, and it’s on a Friday, right before the
weekend, and students get out early on Fridays anyway! I had students draw
pictures to match with vocab words. Curious- so many of them are good at
drawing!
Folks back home got my postcard that
I’d sent as an experiment through the free iPhone app "postagram." http://postagramapp.com/ Cool app! (To send a postcard of whatever picture you
want I think it costs only 99 cent, if you buy at least 4 at once I believe...)
This weekend: art museum and
house-warming potluck. Last weekend I went to “Time World-eu” with other
teachers where we ate in the food court of The Galleria (fancy shopping mall).
I paid about $6 for a huge bowl of delicious soup that had three sides-
seaweed-wrapped rice balls, zucchini tempura, and of course the obligatory
yellow pickled radishes (which I love!). Koreans love their side dishes!
I LOVE my experience so far! I feel
so lucky because the school I work at is very organized and there seems to be a
lot of support for us foreign teachers. It will be interesting to meet other
foreign teachers tomorrow at the potluck who don't work where I do.
