It's already April which is hard to believe... time is flying by. Work has been going well. I feel bad for the kids having to go to school all day and night. They start at about 8 in the morning and some go to academy until about 10 at night...crazy. If we give them detention, they stay until about 11/11:30 I believe; and these are elementary students. The middle schoolers stay until about midnight M-Th. crazy. That's what they know though. To think that I could have grown up here and be one of the kids that had to go to school, academy, and wear uniforms.
The yellow dust is still here a little bit. (This is dust that comes over from China). Supposedly it was kind of a bad season and we might get hit again with it soon. Everyone wears masks to cover their mouths. With the sun coming out, the women are starting to get these visors that cover their entire face pl
us the face mask! hmmm...I don't think I'll be doing that anytime soon.
us the face mask! hmmm...I don't think I'll be doing that anytime soon. I started taking Korean classes in Seoul every Saturday and I've been studying on my own. Oh, and I do a language exchange with one of my friends. good times. It's a hard language but fun. Hopefully before i leave I'll be able to have an okay conversation. we'll see :)
After 3 doctor visits I'm finally somewhat healthy which is a nice change. I still don't know what I had but hopefully I'll get my test results back and see what the deal was.
The cherry blossoms are starting to come out which is making me extremely happy. They are gorgeous and all over!! :) Love it. I'm sad that they only last about 2 weeks. What do you do though.
Today I have a taekwondo event.....but I really have no idea what I'm doing. The language barrier is rather large. I guess I'm just going to show up, kick some boards, do some punching and that's that...hmmm...
So in Korea they do have Krispy Kream which is an amazing thing. I had no idea this was in Korea but yes, it is true :) After Korean class I took some of my friends to KK. Their first time!! :) It's truly a wonderful experience :)
I have officially decided that weekends go by waaay to fast. Just when you are beginning to relax it's already Monday. oi.
It's starting to warm up a bit which is nice though. I need sunshine! You rarely see it though due to all the pollution in the city. bleh.
So I realize again this is rather short but I need to get this day rollin:)
