I <3 Kimchi!

So, it's been a long while since I have posted a blog. Sorry. I have been so busy and lazy at the same time. I have really grown to love Korea as a place to live. I am so comfortable here. I don't get bored ever. My job is still good even though I am working so much! I still have so much fun with my kids. It's so cool to see so much progress in these kids that didn't know any English just a few months ago. I'll post some videos soon, they know Three Little Monkeys and Twinkle Twinkle now. I am learning Korean slowly, but I'm getting there. I can read it now which is good. I am learning a few phrases at a time. Hanging out with Koreans helps a lot. The food here is good, I really like kimchi now. It doesn't feel like a proper meal without kimchi and rice. I don't know what i am going to eat back in the States. I have made some awesome lifelong friends here. Life in Korea is just great.

I have gone on a few weekend trips which have been so amazing.

I went to Samcheok with some guys from my school. We had a blast, we went to some caves, the beach and a penis park. We stayed in a Minbak, which is like a guest house, right on the beach.

































I went to An Heung last weekend with two Korean girlfriends, Angie and Gloria, and four guys from my school. Angie's grandparents have a pension, which is like a cottage, in the country. It was really cool. They had made some food for us and left it there. Homemade Korean food is amazing. We were only about an hour from the beach, so we drove there on Saturday. We took a boat ride, it was so beautiful. It was a blast. Last weekend was also Buddha's birthday. There was a big festival and parade. It was really cool. This weekend is the World DJ Festival. All of my friends will be attending, so that will be fun. Next weekend, I am
going on a wine cruise down the Han River with my friend Christie. And then Sunday, my friend
Wesley and I are going on the DMZ tour. There is so much to do here! I also have a trip to a Buddhist Temple stay soon, Mudfest at Boryeong Beach in July, then to Bali in late July! I will be there for my birthday! I am sooooooooo excited for that! Sorry, I had to rub it in.

Anyways, just wanted to check in. I am so bad at updating this thing! I think everyone should get a facebook account so you all can see my current pictures and we can chat! I still think everyone should come and visit me, if I come back for another year, someone better come and visit me! Anyways, I miss everyone! Send me stuff if you want. I don't really need anything, but getting letters and cards is always fun! And thank you Grandma for the Easter card and garland! I'll be home in six months! I can't believe it's been six months already!

XOXOXOXOXO
