Haha so it was a very busy week with a lot of miscommunication and frustration. In the end though everything seems to be in order. At least I hope. Planning for open class and airport day has been a little crazy, but hopefully we will have it finished this week. Okay enough of that. Lets talk about the field trip.
So I got to go on this field trip in which we went to the science museum. Okay so if you don't know already I majored in science so this was right up my alley. I was just as excited as my kids were. Anyways they had this play room with a ball pit and a lion where you walked through it and it showed the organs inside. We watched a Garfield movie (in Korean). We learned about RNA and that warm air rises. There were a lot of things but my kids loved the ball pit room. I had a lot of fun too. It was fun to play with all my kids and even the kids I don't teach. So I have some photos to share.
My little monkey!
My babies!
They covered Jenny Tr.
Jessica Tr and I. She is my new Korean partner teacher.
This Brian from Noble class. I don't teach him, but he kept coming and hugging me! Such a cutie!
So we also went to the dream park this week. I usually take them with Noble so they can teach Noble how to behave and act. They do a good job most of the time. :)

So that is about it. Not too many exciting things happened. Overall though I had fun with my kids. So that is what matters most to me. Well I am off to get ready for bed! Have a good week everyone! Besos!
So this week was good. Pretty busy, but we had a lot of fun. We had birthday party this week so I have pictures of that. That day Dana didn't dress up but Melissa did. Melissa wore and princess dress and she had heels. It was so cute and all the boys were escorting her around the room like she was a real princess. But what got me is that Alex started to kiss her (on the cheek). It was cute, but then all the other boys started to kiss her too! haha Anyways here are the photos.
We went to the dream park too this week. They had fun playing so I have some photos of that.
Lastly I have a video of the kids during storybook time which turned into dance time. It was too cute not to share or record for that matter. haha
I saw Leah this weekend. I went to here place in Suji which is about 2 hours away by train. We had a lot of fun and we baked cookies because she has an oven. The first batch was too buttery but the rest were very good. It was fun to bake again. I miss doing that. Of course her and I also went to Norebang (karaoke). We sang mostly in English, but did a few songs in Korean. haha It was fun.
Well other then that this week was spent getting ready for Airport day and open classes for elementary. It is going to be busy the next couple of weeks, but I will do my best. Sometimes being supervisor sucks because I end up doing a lot of other teacher's work. Or I feel bad if another teacher doesn't understands something and then asks me after the fact and they did the wrong thing. So they wasted a bunch of time. I will say I miss working with older people and males. Boys are so much less drama and when everyone was older there was more understanding and team work. My co-workers now are disjointed. I am the oldest one here. Two are friends that came together, we have a couple and then one other girl. So starting off there is a divided which makes it hard to bond all together. It is frustrating sometimes and I spend a lot of time by myself or with old friends. Now I like my alone time so I am okay which it but sometimes I wish they would try to hang out with me more. I stopped asking because they always blew me off and I felt like the third wheel. Now I know they like me and all, but it just isn't the same. Today is probably the first time I have really been unhappy here. I am pretty good with drama and helping others, but it sucks when I feel like I have no one to lean on. This could just be the stress talking, but after being able to see Leah yesterday and Haris and Andy last Sunday I really miss them. I miss spending Friday nights with them and they didn't care if I didn't really drink, but just enjoyed my company. Matt is coming to visit and I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am to see him. I miss all of the random things we talked about. He had a lot to say and I learned from him. I know Andy and Haris feel the same way. When we hung out last week, I couldn't stop smiling or laughing. My old group of co-workers were my family here and I have only started to realize how much they mean to me and I miss them a lot. I guess I miss them so much because they understood me and accepted me for who I am. Even if I made a mistake they never yelled at me, but instead helped me fix it. I don't get that with the new group, but at the end of the day it is okay, because I am just going to do my best. That is really all I can do and if I can survive this place for a year I think I can handle one more. Okay I am done ranting. Sorry for being depressing. I feel better now. I have to finish up a PowerPoint for Airport day so I am off. Have a good week! Besos!
