MAN. Another two months rolls by
and again I have neglected this blog. This is one of the biggest reasons why I
don’t blog…because I can’t seem to keep it updated as much as I want to. These
past couple months have been stressful. Regional Orientation in Gyeongju city
happened during the last week of August. I was so stressed out I actually cried
in my hotel room one night! Ahhh the anxiety of trying to be the coordinator. I
know I can’t appease everyone, but dang is it disappointing when things fail to
go according to plan. Anyway, I should stop complaining and view it as a
learning experience…I mean, that IS one of the reasons I took the position even
though I know myself to be a follower rather than a leader. There are days when
I find it tough to juggle between teaching my students and overlooking about
100 scholars in this province.
The second
semester has kept me busy. I am still learning to multi-task, but it is
definitely not easy especially with my easily distractible nature. I swear, I think
I have like a minor case of ADHD… heh. Oh,
so starting this month, the homeroom teachers must help me with my classes as
well. Apparently I cannot teach alone, which is so dumb because I have been
teaching afterschool classes alone for the past 19 months! COME ON! Anyway, I
argue to no avail since it is what the local office of education requested. How
nerve-wracking considering all the homeroom teachers this semester are MALE.
Just my luck. I will just have to try not to make a fool of myself too often. Today’s
class was actually all right. I focused on alphabet identification with my
grades 1-4. The 1st/2nd grader teacher just signed and
left today. The 3rd/4th grader teacher actually made an
appearance! I played Hangman with the students and he even participated! Hahaa
so cute. His students are really lucky to have him as their homeroom teacher.
Oh! Grade 1 Cho Bo Geum came up and handed me a piece of candy with both hands.
It’s so seldom to see her sweet side, but I do appreciate it when it
shows. Grade 3 Seo Ji Ho gave me a piece
of candy (caramel nut?) as well. She’s such a good girl. I did an activity
called “Name 3 Things” with grade 5. Their homeroom teacher has been attending
since the beginning and he helps out which is really nice.
Oh! During the break, I told Aimee teacher about my
nightmare last night. It was such a terrifying ordeal that I don’t want to
repeat here. I just know that I woke up shouting my go-to deity’s name and when
I checked the time on my phone, it was 3:06am. Ugh. I wonder what it means, but
I think it best to leave it be…for now.
The clothes that I ordered last week came! RL’s black top
with the sleeve design and wine-colored leggings. My shoes came but it is the
wrong one!! Argh I had a feeling this would happen…I mean…this was one of the
shoes I was deciding to get, but I wanted another pair of ankle boots and
instead the white laced-up shoes arrived. Did I really order this? I must have to
been so out of it when I did order it…damn. No wonder it was so cheap. Did not
register completely in my mind. Aiya.

The clothes that I ordered with MS came as well! The
pair of beige pants is so nice, but it’s too short and tight on me! Maybe it’s
because I just had a big dinner AND French toast on top of it! What’s wrong
with me? Why are Korean girls so skinny? Oh well, the skirt is super pretty and
cute though! I LOVE IT! I can’t wait to wear it. Yayyy.

I just watched an episode of Faith, a Korean drama starring
Lee Min Ho and Kim Hee Sun. Holy cow is it cheesy. The female lead is pretty
but so damn annoying. Oh well, I guess she’s just playing the part since she
was taken back to Goryeo Era to save the Queen. Hm…time traveling to mesh
together fantasy and history. If her voice wasn’t so whiny. Hot damn. I just
looked up her biography. The woman is 37, but playing a 33 year old! She looks
good for her age. So, she’s the love interest of Lee Min Ho, who is actually 27,
but is 29 years old in the drama. Oh geez. Why do they do this?? Pairing a
younger guy with an older woman. It’s no wonder couples like this is forming
off screen as well. Aiya. I don’t know why it’s so hard for me to accept a young
dude with an older woman. I guess maybe because I was brought up with the
notion that guys are usually older than the girls they date. Things really are
changing these days…
