Small update

My vacation is officially over today. :( Tomorrow school starts back up with my new co-teacher. I have no idea what we will be teaching tomorrow if anything. Right now, I'm just trying to get this research paper written. I'm almost done, just one more page to go. My 2 weeks of camp were tiring, but also so much fun! There were times when I just wanted to yell at some of the kids, but they were just too adorable and they were just having fun. I'm most likely going to be teaching most of them in an after school class for extra pay. So I'm kinda looking forward to that.

So, 3 weeks of school and then I get to see the parentals!!!! WHOO!!!!! I'm so excited!!!! I've been told that Seoul won't be so crowded during their time here, because most people will go back to their hometowns because it's Chuseok, which is Korea's Thanksgiving. So that should be good! I'm really looking forward to showing them around.

I think it's a good thing that schools starting back up. It will give me less time here at home by myself feeling lonely and more time thinking about other things. lol It has been 6 months and they say that the culture shock/homesickness is at it's greatest at 3, 6, and 9 months. So, I guess it's only natural. I am started to wonder if staying here another full year is what I want. But, then what would I do if I came home? I have no job prospects, I don't have the money to go back to school, and Oklahoma isn't where I want to stay. So, what am I to do? I have no idea!! haha I'll figure something out eventually.

  1. "I have no job prospects, I don't have the money to go back to school, and Oklahoma isn't where I want to stay." Sounds familiar, ha ha. But you're going to figure this thing, and so am I!
    For what it's worth, six months was when I hit my lowest point-- both in Scotland and in Korea. After that, things have picked up.
    Hang in there!

    Oh by the way, loved the celebrity pics post. One more reason why I should come back, ha ha ha.
