So, we celebrated Lunar New Year at school toward the end of Jan.
We all dressed up in traditional korean clothing (hanboks). The kids bow down to their elders and get money, so we practiced this at school. So cute! 
So teaching kindergarten is HARD WORK!! Oh my, much more difficult than I thought. My thinking before I left for Korea was, "they're little kids, how hard can teaching english be?" Boy was I wrong. It takes so much energy, patience, creativity, and hard work! 
We work pretty long hours, but it goes by really fast. I work with all girls & everyone is really cool. Christina went back to the states so we got a new foreign teacher, Catie, from Nova Scotia, Canada. Hyo (one of our korean teachers) is getting married so we got a new one, Ray. 
And of course there's still Cecilia, Serene & Dianne. We just started a new session at the beginning of March, so we got a lot of new students & new classes. It's been crazy busy! I'm teaching 8 classes/day. But I'm starting to like the kids a lot now! THey really grow on you! I've been staying super busy preparing & teaching. Not to mention, I'm working a 2nd job. It's through the headquarters of my school called Edubox. Basically, I am being filmed teaching lessons for public school students. I'm just talking to a camera though. I have to be loud, perky & really into it, so it takes a lot of energy. But it pays well so it's worth it! Let's see, what else has been going on?...we've been snowboarding a couple of times & I LOVE IT!!!!!!! I found my new favorite sport! I had done it before many years ago, but I didn't give it much of a chance. But now, it's so fun! I learned to turn so that makes it much better! We've been a couple of times here in Korea. I already can't wait till next season! 
I've also been doing yoga & I'm really getting in to it! Not the whole meditation part, (it's in korean so I don't understand most of what they're saying), but I've gotten more flexible & it just feels so good for my body! I found a new church that I LOVE! It's called Jubilee. I found out about it through Billy & now Megan & Tara are going too. We're going to join a Women's Bible Study so I'm super excited about that. Pastor David is AMAZING & the worship is incredible! That's about it. I moved in to Christina's apartment & it's SOOOO much better! It actually feels like a home. The bed is huge, I have a couch that folds out to a bed, a kitchen area that's separate from the rest of the apt & a big bathroom. God has been teaching me about patience & to be true to myself & HIM (no matter who I'm with or where I am in the world)...HE is always there.
