When we first got there we were kind of disappointed, the park seemed pretty lackluster even though the cherry blossoms surrounding the place were nice.
Buuuut then we realized we weren't in the right park. Or the right section, anyway. The real Yeouido was much nicer.
I think this guy may have invented Hangul-
Either that, or he just liked to read a lot.
So yeah. This week was good. I took some shifts and so I didn't have that many of my classes canceled. This week we're starting some of our test prep for the placement exams at my school and next week we have the real deal so should be an interesting couple of weeks. Then we have just a few more weeks left in the term and that is it! I'm hoping to do some sort of pen-palish type thing with some of my kids and my sister-in-law's 7th graders in the US before the term ends, if I can. We shall seeee.
Oh. And this weekend I went out to the foreigner bar in Suji and then on Saturday I went bowling, and out and about clubbing with some people in Seoul. It was very interesting and I didn't get home until 9:30 a.m.! I also got a glimpse of Itaewon, the foreigner neighborhood in Seoul. It was very... crazy. Haha. There were people of all different races all over the place which was a site to see because I'm so used to seeing Koreans all the time. There's great Ethiopian and Indian food places and such so I may go and check those out at some point.
So. Just woke up at about 3 p.m. and it is a beautiful day so I feel like a bit of a bum. Will probably go out and take a walk or something or play basketball. We have this court near my apartment where people play so that's fun. Some Koreans are really good at b-ball but their ball is smaller so I'm trying to get adjusted. It's great exercise and good release so I'm hoping to do more of that. OK I've written a lot! Bye.
