I haven't seen my family in over 2 years. I am very excited to get out of here for a month and a half and spend time with my loved ones. |

Studying Korean for 10 weeks.
I also haven't seen my family in 5 years. Unfortunately I committed to going in the summer so I'll break my original plan of only once a decade. |

For Christmas.. I'll be visiting pretty much my entire extended family. Looking forward to it! Plus I've become an uncle since the last time I was back home!
New Years Eve will be in Las Vegas.
Prior to those two Holidays.. it'll be Dominican Republic and Miami. |

We actually have to teach on Monday, December 25.
But January 1 is a school holiday.
Another Chinese Christmas spent in the classroom and then off to Brisbane, unfortunately  |

I am pretty sure Christmas is a national (red coloured) holiday here in Korea, and you shouldn't be working it. You should be getting overtime atleast. Also, to others, isn't New Years the same? It's a red day on my calendar and therefore I assume it's a holdiay and not just a "school" holiday 
You should look into this and tell your boss to go do something. |

Over Christmas, I will spend the time praying for a Nor'easter. You know.. the three to four feet of snow kind where you can't even open the doors of your home because you are snowed in. Yeah. A Nor'easter in Korea. I'll be praying for one over Christmas.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas..just like the ones I used to know... |

That might make a difference  My bad. No harm done. I remember working Christmases (what's the plural of that?) in Japan, though in China my school gave everyone Christmas off. |

I'll be in Texas, wont be seeing my family this year just not enough time and too expensive to fly and see them.
Christmas I hope to get in a round of golf before going to the in-laws, NYE I plan to see Robert Earl Keen ("The Road goes on forever and the party never ends")
plus I'll be watching a ton of football and not on my computer at 6AM  |
