Work Pursuits

Today I spent my morning getting things taken care of. I sent some of my money home... In other words did some bank record keeping. I want my savings account to get on fire. I am trying to figure my options. I ate at PappaRoti a bakery and relaxed a little after grocery shopping.

Work was interesting. I had high hopes for today. Today being the hiatus of the week I wanted today to run smoothly.
I have to give a rundown of my classes.
Mb1: funny, happy times, Kids were wonderful. I gave them a homework present reducing their amount.
Mb2: nice, happy E-taes, and my two favorite girls were good... the rest of them were ok.
**I was able to joke with them and connect so I was happy.

Mc1 classes
Mc1 There weren't many kids there
Mc2: Not bad, typical

Md1: A measly review that turned out really good. There were only 4 students.
Md2: meltdown. Alexa/Diane copied each others homework and besides that it was too simple
Homework: What is your favorite class and why?
English is ..................
English is
English is
I could do that in Korean its not thinking

I am ashamed at the standards of Mr. Jeong

I feel horrible lately because I am having to get a new teacher here. I am tired of hiding this. I don't want anyone to go through the hell of working here. Its not a good place to work.


Fact be known I would have left a lot sooner if I didn't believe in my future so much.

I had a good day ruined because the kids had to complain to Vicki and Christina yet again lowering my work and my authority. What good is authority when truth be known I am just the bad Foreigner who does things poorly.


I took a red pen and crossed out her homework. Red pen means Die in Korea I could care less. I loved seeing my favorite student gasp in surprise. I really hope it makes Alexa and or Diane quit. I loathe them and its not because they are stupid dumb kids but because they can't change. Their parents are so screwed up.

Now I have to say this I don't want anyone I know to work here and face these horrors. The horror is limited to Hyunggok Gumi Yale Academy. I think anything would be better and I REALLY want to make this come true.


I worry to much about a lot of things. I worry that I am not doing good enough teaching, I am not doing enough in My Korean Experience. I am worried I shouldn't leave, maybe because of Aaron's talking I don't know ...


At any rate this is the last thing I will say....

My Dream is to make the impossible possible it just takes Faith and a strong belief that we can do anything.


I am scared because I am not entirely sure what to do.

I am looking forward to a 3 day weekend I don't want to go to work on a Saturday nor do I want to deal with more homework, less homework etc. I wish everyday was like Tuesday and Thursday those kids for the most part try to learn.


Life is not meant to worry about things, its meant to take full advantage of everything that there is to offer. I want to do anything, I am not scared of anything except for failure.

Anything is Possible...Lets set our sights on a great 3 day and also opening up doors to a wonderful future because I want this so much
