MY APARTMENT:
My apartment reminds me of my dorm room but bigger thank goodness. I have a kitchen and a bathroom. Everything is Samsung, which I don't mind I like Samsung. The only 2 complaints I have are the bed is as hard as a freaking rock. Like no give what-so-ever. Also the walls are thin, I can hear the neighbor take a shower. I live on a block full of stores and restaurants including the best wing place ever. LOL I know I'm the only one who would go to Korea and happen upon a wing place. Right next to my apartment. But yesterday when I went to the 7-eleven to get some juice I saw a wing place and had to get some. It was soo good I was sniffling all night. (Sister I know you're gonna wanna eat at this place when you come. ) That's all I have to report. about my place ask questions if want to know more. I sent out pictures from my snapfish.
PEOPLE:
So far there are minimal stares but they are used to Americans since I stay in an area that has alot of English schools. When I went to the wing place she could speak some English and I pointed. I will use this method till I can speak well. Ji-Hye and her husband have been amazing. They are very nice they have come to see me every night and taken me out to dinner. At the school everyone is nice. I thought it would be weird because I was black, from the things I had read, but so far it has not been a problem. The students are on a basic level of English. They asked me a bunch of questions today. I will only have to plan a lesson for 5th graders right now. Next month I start a teachers class. Any suggestions will be grateful. WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE OLDER THAN ME ?
Ok I have to get ready for the teachers meeting. I come in at like 8:30 ish my time so like 7 something your time. Love and miss you all

hahahhaa- You KNOW I'm scheming on those wings!! Can't wait! I may have to take TWO trips to Korea instead of the one I mentioned! :o). As for your bed do you want me to send you (unless they have it over there)one of those foam mattress covers? At least that will make the bed a bit more comfy. Let me know. As for your teacher's class- are you teaching them basic English too? If so, it's the same as with the students. Of course you can make it more 'fun' by using references to things that are more age appropriate. Maybe words/lyrics to a song - just choose a family friendly song of course! hahahaa..Send me an email when you can and give me more details. I'm off to work and off to calculate my tripSS (yes plural) for the wings- I mean to Korea to visit you! :o)
