One week in Korea…

So yes today is officially one week… well in about three hours.  We had a special day at school bc of some Korean holiday so lunch was awesome.  The holiday is Chusok, their Korean Thanksgiving.  I actually taught two classes how to make hotdogs.  The children pretty much neglected the bun and licked ketchup off the weiner.  Whatever makes them happy.  There was also some other international food today.  I thought it comical that the children didn’t eat too much.  They probably felt like I do normally during lunch, staring at the unknown.  Later in the afternoon the children put on their hanboks which are these traditional outfits and I felt like I was watching “The King and I”(for those of you who don’t know your musicals, you won’t get the humor).  I’m actually sticking around to fill in for New Zealand Dan, teaching two 3rd grade girls in about 20 min.    I believe I get extra pay for this but honestly I have no idea. haha.  Pictures are constantly being added to all posts.  I apologize for how drab this is but then again I take that back because no one is forcing you to read this.  Comments are quite welcome!
