I haven't blogged that much recently because we really haven't been that busy. Someone fraudulently used my debit card last week, so I had to cancel my card and get a new one. And since we don't get paid for two weeks, I really don't have a way to get money. That leaves us with little to do. We have about 12,000 won to our name, which is about $10. We can still use our credit cards, but they charge a lot of money, so we are trying to limit our use of them. Anyway, we're not out of money, we just don't have cash until we get paid on the 10th. This restricts our activities a little bit, as we don't have money for cabs and street vendors and things like that. So hopefully in two weeks we will start being out and about more often and give you something more exciting to read about!We bought a lot of groceries on Saturday, so we've been mostly staying in and making food ourselves, like these wonderful baguette pizzas:
School has been fun. We have times where there is the odd student who doesn't want to learn and causes trouble, but most of the kids really want to learn and seem to enjoy our classes. I have been so proud of my kiddies today, most of them scored perfects on their spelling tests! It is really encouraging to me as a teacher to see them succeed. Soon, I hope to get up the courage to ask if we can take pictures. I would definitely love to show off my students :)Excitingly enough, there is another national holiday coming up! Movement day marks the day Korea finally stood up to Japan. It is celebrated March 1st, so we get to have Monday off!
On a final note, we will work on getting more pictures and videos up soon. I know that's what you're all here for :)
