40th Anniversary for ECLC!

What a night...last night was a blast. We celebrated ECLC's 40th Anniversary at a restaurant in Itaewon. Everyone looked their best and enjoyed themselves. Everything about the night was cool, from the Nanta performance to the roaming magician. I enjoyed speaking to the parents of my students that showed up for the night. After enjoying ourselves at the 40th, the parents and a few teachers went to JJ's in the Hyatt Hotel. The night couldn't have ended without us going to a Noraebang (song room). It's always a good end to a great night. Oh, I forgot to mention that I won a few night's stay at the Hyatt. LUCKY ME!!! The celebration at school on Friday was awesome for the kids and they enjoyed their cupcakes and teddy bears with ECLC ribbons attached. Happy Birthday ECLC!

Monday's aren't so bad!

My day started off with a good laugh. We were on our way to school this morning in a cab and this lady who was obviously drunk from the night before was in the middle of the street trying to hail a cab. She didn't have her arm out and waving to the ground as must people do here in Korea, instead she was tapping her foot and shaking her leg like she was in a Beyonce' video. You know the one, 'if you like it, then you better put a ring on it'. I'm not sure if he got a taxi to get to where she wanted to go or an audition for So You Think You Can Dance.

Taught the class without a sub or co-teacher today. Jess, I hope that you are keeping it together on your way home to NZ. We are all thinking about you and your family, and hope to see you soon!! All of the children wanted to send your their regards.

After school, Arts and Crafts club went well,despite that fact that some of the children didn't want to get club on their hands while we did Paper Mache bracelets. It was quite funny.

l went to the best Korean BBQ place that I've eaten at since being here 4 years. The food is great, but the lady closes the restaurant at 8 p.m. daily so that she can eat and drink Soju with her friends. What about making money?

Until next time...be good to yourself and each other!!!

A cool weekend!

It seems like forever since the last time that I blogged. There hasn't been too much going on. I'm back to work and enjoying my students as always and also enjoying my weekends. I must say that I'm also enjoying having Korean food just about everyday again. The food in the Philippines was good, but I LOVE Korean food.

I didn't expect to do that much this weekend, but I made it home after work on Friday and decided to rest up a bit. After napping for a few hours I showered and went out. It was a celebration for Cassie,she's heading back home to America for a few months. We met them at Sam Ryan's and they were already drinking. Not surprised at all...hahahah! I met up with Jaesub and his buddies and we all moved on to Grand Ole Opry and the night really got started. Some people were already drunk, but did they stop drinking? NEVER! I did have a college flashback while at the Friends Bar playing beer pong. Good times. Then off to Polly's Kettle. I won't say what time I made it home, but the sun was up...hahahha.

Today I decided to take it easy and went to Sinchon for dinner with Dustin and Jaimie. We went to a bar for one drink and made it back home to HBC. There you have it, there isn't much more for me to talk about. I'll have more to talk about soon.

Until next time...be good to yourself and each other!!!
