i didn't think that i had anything to write about today, but there are a couple of things that i found out about my upcoming school year. at school #1 i will only be teaching first grade (the equivalent of grade 7 in canada)!!!! this is great. it will give me the chance to really get to know the kids and create some kind of rapport with them. it means a lot of extra lesson planning - something i thought i had finished yesterday - but that's ok.
at school #2 i will be teaching only second grade. this is all right - at least i can use the same lesson plans as i am in school #1.
school #2 is moving my desk so that i will no longer be sitting directly in front of the vice principal. though, on second thought, he won't be there for the next few months, so it doesn't really make much difference. i will be closer to the door though...faster, easier escape route!
i leave you now with some random photos from the last little while...
what is "job's tears tea"? is this some kind of weird biblical reference?
and what's with the "frim coffee"? there are some things i'll never understand...
our waiter at junco last weekend. these hats are best when seen on grown men in business suits... but this shot will have to do!
mark and ben 'chicken fighting' in the subway - they learned this in their martial arts class...sorry it's blurry - i had to be fast (crappy camera doesn't help)

im laughing at those photos.
if you want an explanation of the teas...
job's tears tea is "yool moo cha". tastes a bit nutty and sweet. its made from a grain called 'jobs tears'.
frim coffee' is a misspelled translation of 'prim coffee'. 'prim' is konglish for 'creamer'. and i have no freakin idea why, ask my Korean teacher.
