Crazy puppet show and seeing old friends

Well this week was pretty good. I had fun with my kids and I got to see old friends that used to work with me. So first off my kids got to watch a puppet show. It was in Korean, and one of the men is the father of one of our youngest students. The puppet show had music, lights and was about poop. Yes you read that right poop! It was kind of ridiculous but the kids loved it. It was cute because Lumi was translating for me what was happening. The play was supposed to teach the kids about eating healthy and not junk food all the time or else you will have bad poop. No joke that had good poop and bad poop. Koreans love jokes about poop or farting so I am not too suprised. Anyways here are some photos.





I have such a weird expression here. haha





I am getting the kids quiet. haha

Lots of kids huh? Anyways this weekend Matt came to visit. Now Matt left 6 months ago and I took over his Einstein class when he left. I have kept in touch with him and I missed having him around as I do all the old foreign teachers. So we hung out this weekend. Matt, Andy, Haris, Leah and I. We stayed out all night in Iteawon which is more for foreigners and I not a huge fan of the area, but it was a nice time. We hung out and relaxed and the boys got drunk. I had a couple of drinks over the course of 8 hours but I wasn't drunk or even tipsy. haha The boys were that is for sure, but they are funny drunks but not like dancing on the tables or just saying random, incoherent things. They have bets on things that are going on around us and then we have intellectual conversations about life. It is funny to watch because we don't act all crazy (well Kevin did). Maybe this is because we are older that we just talk and enjoy each others company. We were supposed to meet at 8pm, but I was the only one there at 8. Leah got there at 8:30 and the boys showed up at 9pm. We ate dinner and then went to one bar till 3am and to another one till 5:30. I got the first train home. Now this is the first time I have done this in Seoul. If you know me I am not a big drinker and I usually don't drink. If I do I don't drink much. So I don't usually go out because I hate staying up all night and I didn't sleep much today so I can go to bed at a good time for work tomorrow. However, I don't regret going because I got to be with people I really have missed. I wish the rest of the group was there. Meg, Kevin and Philip, but it was just nice to have the group we did. I didn't think that would happen again. It is funny that I got close to people who I never thought I would have. We all come from different places and even those from the States I probably wouldn't have met unless I came here. Haris is from Indiana, Andy is from Kentucky, Leah is from Florida and Matt is from England. When I said goodbye to Matt I never thought I would see him again. It was so nice to see him again. Anyways I have some photos from last night. Enjoy!
