Its February and it means its going to be a busy month. Its amazing how fast time flies when you are busy.
Work I am keeping busy with a few personal projects and trying to look for more although unsuccessful and slow.
Whatever I can do in a day to make class better is what I need to do. I realize how hard it is to be a teacher especially with kids who dont understand because of language difference.
I spent the moring at Mcdonalds because when I got there in the morning I needed some Black Coffee to kill my sore throat. It feels like someone has cut my throat~ I dont know why thats the case but maybe it will be better soon!
I had lunch with my darling and a student who is really good at english but really didnt talk to me too much. I dont know why because she is a star student and I really like her. Almost as much as Molly haha. I like some students too much because there are only a few of them who like me. Just like my girlfriend I like the ones who bow to me and show me respect~ but the truth is, is that I just wish someone would want to talk to me its making me feel crazy that I have no one I can talk to once I begin work.
I talk to Christina before/after and even during (andong) but its during isnt the same since we are hustling and bustling around the office.
I am finding out just how much sometimes the kids annoy me because they can't listen to me when I say nicely please stop so I have to get angry. I dont like working on class projects (if I have any) with the "bad" kids hanging around. Bad Kids are the ones that simply pry into Christina's workspace and question her life.
I was really angry today at one student in particular who when translated said, " Nick and Chrisitna as a couple is bad for Christina because Nick is a foreigner and younger than you" I strongly dislike her and I wish she would drop. What right does a kid have to judge a teacher. They know nothing of Love, or adult relationship and next week I will work harder so that they dont even think about saying that kind of Sh**. Beth is this close to not being allowed in the office when I am there simply because of her stupidity. her mouth runs a muck and she doesnt know when to go and when to just close her mouth.
I taught 5 classes and the only problem was with Mc1---Jack and Nick have to keep talking and hopefully that will stop too because the only way I can get through work is by not taking my job too seriously when it comes to the problems. I told Christina that I am tired of the kids making fun of my hair, clothes, "dirty" shoes whatever. Its weird.
After work I went to Loteria and had some fried chicken and cocoa! What a great dinner! Of course I ate something more later. Sandwiches!
I went to the Train Station and decided to go to Suwon for a 2 day vacation later this week. I am nervous because it is going to be a solo trip yet again and I am not sure what to totally expect.
Riding in the Taxi is amazing sometimes to watch the Taxi culture. They always talk to the other taxi drivers. I am always surprised when they roll down the window to say hi and basically dont even look at me.
Its uncountable how happy my girlfriend makes me feel. Behind every smile, every action she does I am moved. I am amazed at how well she is with kids, and how good a teacher she is. When it comes to kids her patience cant be matched. I am the one that has the stress when I watch her handle the kids. I couldn't do that.
Anyways, I am going to bed now I can't wait until a wonderful Sunday to pack for Suwon and have an easy work day! Tomorrow work should be so so. I am just going to be happy when I can return to my bed or home or whatever. Time goes by so fast. until then...
