Fried Chicken and Kids

Life here is taking many interesting turns.

To begin with, at work my boss hired a new teacher. Her arrival doesnt make my teaching any easier. In fact or on the contrary, it makes it a lot worse. I know have 31 classes and other than Thursday my days are long and arduous.
My favorite class TD1 was dropped on Thursday in order to accomodate the new teacher. My boss really didnt think this through when he hired a new teacher. She isn't necesary. I dont enjoy most of my classes because the kids dont learn from me as much as I would like.
TD1 is special for so many reasons. My star pupils (Rose and Jully) bring a twinkle to my eye everytime I see them. (I wish they would visit me because they are really special kids to me). I almost cried when I heard that i wouldnt get to teach them on Thursday. They get my jokes and enjoy my stories.

After Thursday at work I went to the Chicken Restaurant and ordered a tub of chicken. I ate 30 pieces and had a beer. It helped a little. It reminded me of the times my friends and I would put away 100 pieces of chicken at WOW Restuarant in paradise otherwise known as Missoula.

My personal life is getting much better. I am finding many things to enjoy in Korea nowadays.

My neighbor and adopted grandmother died a few days ago, I wish that i could have said goodbye properly.
You never know what will happen with the time that you have so its important to find a way to make the best of it and to work hard.


Its time I start thinking about a future with some real sense of direction.


Today at work was a long day. I had 4 classes on Saturday and was all by myself.

I felt really bad about losing my kids so i gave them some chocolate. I feel a little better.


Next week is going to bring some interesting changes yet again. Its going to be interesting to see what will happen next.

Now, its time to relax and enjoy the weekend.
