4 more weeks of class...

I'm super super super super behind on this. My bad! I just haven't had the motivation to write anything. Not because I haven't been doing anything, but because I've been doing quite a lot and don't really feel like writing about everything when you can really just keep up with facebook. haha But, I guess I owe you a quick update.

Had my open class today. The VP, and the 3 other English teachers, as well as the head teacher were in there to watch. Kinda nervous because it was the first time for the VP to see me teach. And that man kinda scares me. Anyways...It went OK I guess. But, as the VP was giving feedback I felt like it was bash Caroline's teaching day. He expects me to learn the students names. First of all, I would love that because it would make life so much easier, but remember I teach 3 grades, 2 with 7 classes and 1 with 6, and at least 27-30 kids in each class. So do that math and that's at least 540 kids probably a little more. YA...that ain't gonna happen and considering it takes me about a month to remember a Korean name anyways. So, hopefully the 4th graders will start wearing name tags and I'll get up enough courage to read their names. lol And yes it will be in Korean. After the meeting was over Wendy, my 4th grade co-teacher translated and made his comments not as rude. lol So it wasn't so bad. So I'm glad that's over and done with.

This weekend making a girls trip to the beach!!!! There's about 8 of us going all together. It's going to rock!!!! Gotta work on my base tan for Hawaii and Boracay so I don't fry. I'm so looking forward to Hawaii!!!! And I'm splurging a bit on a little something something for myself! I've been debating whether or not to get a DSLR, but then I realized that I'd probably get annoyed by the large size of it. So my friend Tyler showed me his Sony Nex 5 he recently got and I fell in love. haha My other friend Thanh has one too, but I didn't get to see his in person. He's too stingy to show it to me. haha So, I found a package deal on Amazon.com for the camera, two lenses, a case, extra battery, 16GB memory card, a couple filters, and a cleaning cloth for about $860.


I can't resist. So, Tyler is letting me ship it to his APO. What a nice guy. lol Anyways...mom and dad, don't get mad at me. I'm still saving up enough money. Don't worry!!!!

Hawaii in 4 weeks as well!!!! I leave the 15th for Hawaii and get to see my parents on the 15th back in the states!! It's going to be awesome!!!!! And I'll hopefully have my awesome new camera!!! If not, I'll take it to Boracay. But looking forward to see the parents and just being in Hawaii.

Alright well...that's about all I've got the energy for. So...take care and until next time.
