The Korean-English teachers at my school took me out to a beautiful restaurant and the food was delicious! The girl second from the left is my main co-teacher. If I have problems etc. she is the one that helps me.
On the weekend, a few of us ventured to Seoul to watch the FIFA U17 world soccer final!
It was a 0-0 game and ended up in a shootout with Nigeria taking it 3-0! The place went crazy!!
This is my very own classroom - six tables of 8 = too many girls in room (especially when I can't understand most of them!)
My office desk...lots of room and a nice computer
My kitchen...the view from my bed!
The main room/my bedroom
My bathroom with the shower hanging between the toilet and sink...fun times...
Thought I'd add some pictures again for you all. The girls are all still so excited about my class, so at least they have energy...unlike me. I have a cold which seems to be going around our group of friends here. Not good.
Well, I survived cafeteria spam/tomato soup yesterday and stopped myself from eating what I thought was chicken/tomato soup today - it was tofu! Can't do it. They also eat so much seaweed here (and rice and kimchi(spicy rotten cabbage 3X/day). Can you imagine eating something everyday for each meal???? I just can't wrap my head around it.
And I can't remember if I mentioned this, but many of the toilets here are little tough things in the floor...so weird. It's amazing how you get used to something different when you have to pee really bad though! haha.

Hi Karen. Nice to see your pictures. It sounds like things are going well enough. Hope you can find some food that agrees with you - it will build up your strength and resistance. Your place looks like a college dorm room - any windows? Glad to see you got out on the weekend for a game. Keep up the good work. Enjoy the culture.
We think of you often and keep you in our prayers.
Love from Aunt Jennifer
