Drizzle Effect

It rained heavily today. I hope its not a sign of an early wet season. Its hard to believe that I have been here for a year and personally I don't want to think about it like that. It does make me feel sad to leave and sometimes I can't bear it.

For all of my complaining about my Life in Korea I have found many amazing things. I have developed a routine here where I have many things that I would like to have completely in my life and never change. I just want a new place and take away some elements with me.

The Rain pours like none other here. Its just one big surging typhoon like water that leaves you drenched and doesn't stop. It reminds me of Wisconsin in many ways. Korea is lush green and unfortunately nowadays it will be constantly too hot. I have gotten used to the hotness and the lack of proper air con and situations at work but the kids haven't. Maybe to some people I seem ruthless when it comes to teaching but if one thing can be learned from me it is my ability to endure. I tell the kids Oh you are hungry, me too, and I am hot and I am tired too but just wait. Complaining is the worst thing in the world. BE Quiet and do something about it. I told them that they are here in my classroom they need to just face up to the situation. For the life of me I can't speak to them in English because they fail to answer me at all.

I am scared to teach because my preparation means squat its just if I control the kids good enough for Mr. J to let me pass for the day.

Today I had 6 classes back to back.
After work I had a snack with Christina and relaxed. It was a long day of teaching and I am just happy its Thursday tomorrow. I can accomplish a lot I think.

I need to save more money and I need to work harder this coming week. Its almost June and its scary to me.

Inside the classroom the kids stare in befuddlement as I count down the minutes to the clock. Whether its right or wrong I am just trying to be more determined about work experience and find a way to improve. I help the kids who want to learn and punish the ones that don't in hopes that they will follow suit but it seldom works out that way.
