A while ago, I made wrote my "final" post on Dave's because I couldn't take the complaints anymore. Many agreed with me while others called me a noob and "see you in 6 months".

Well, I still think people complain more than they should, but I realized that I was being unfair to the people who experienced unfair hardships first hand. I apologize to those who really deserves to complain.

I'm still doing well and have no major complaints. Yes, my 2nd graders are from hell and communicating with Koreans are impossible, but still life is pretty good. I'm only half way through my 6 months before "crap" happens to me, but I have a feeling I'll be fine the whole year.

I'm going to start posting again because I humbly feel I can help answer some questions. Please don't say things like, "Noob, you're back? I knew it! You got screwed too huh? Serves you right..." I flip flopped on my stance of never posting, but I will never feel my OP was out of place.

he means that new people to korea go through a phase where everything is amazing, the honeymoon stage, but then the novelty of it wears off and they start getting annoyed by small things.
