Teacher, Teacher!

With dove dark chocolates in hand, I survived my first full day of classes. That's right, I bought my student's love. And I feel no shame. I felt it was important to establish the rockstar teacher status right from the start.

I taught 6 classes from 4-9 and every class has its own personality. For the most part, the kids were respectful and well-behaved. The boys think I'm a soccer star and the girls keep asking me how old I am, how tall I am, and if I have a girlfriend. I really have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing at the moment, but I've got a couple games in my pocket to tie me over until I figure things out. You should also know I'm replacing a 50 year old British alcoholic who got fired for coming in drunk and falling down in class. It's going to be hard to top that.

Last night I bought every item of western food the walmart of Korea had to offer which I can count on one finger: Peanut butter, pringles, bagels, cream cheese, and Pepsi. But suprisingly, Korea has really good coffee. They sell iced coffee in big milk cartons and it's better than any Starbucks iced coffee I've ever served. And since my room only came with wine glasses, I drink it in style.
