I'm in between "sessions" (for lack of a better word), so I've only had to work one day since Christmas, and I won't start until January 5th. Only 15 teaching days left........I just realized that. Hot damn!

I guess we're lucky.... 4 weeks off at Christmas, 4 weeks off during the summer, 2 weeks off in the spring and again in the fall. So believe me when I say "I feel for those of you that have to work on the 24th and the 31st!" Never again a hokown!

The Biz never sleeps.

Handsomeness is a seven day work-week.

Yeah, I just found out yesterday that I get Friday off. Woohoo!! But, the catch is I have to work a saturday Sad Jan 10. Which, quite frankly, my dears, sucks. But I do have a four day vacation now, that I just don't know what to do with.

I posted basically the same thread topic on the job discussion forum, oops.


I have Friday off too. However, they changed Solar from a full week off to just the standard 3 days as parents had complained 1 week was too long away from studying, but I'm sure it's more like 1 week is too much time to have their kids around the house.

Three days off for the Lunar New Year later this month. That is going to be pretty sweet. Definitely makes up for working during Christmas.

Five days, including Saturday and Sunday.

Might even go to church on the Sunday, what with all the free time.

by the way, sorry about the dopuble post, i hadn't checked the other form for a few weeks, the question jumped into my head sitting at work on one of my pointless rediculous breaks i have in my "new" winter vacation schedule. VACATION? WHAT VACATION. The only thing I noticed is that the kids have to get up at the same time and they are at the hogwon twice as long, that's not a vacation that's stupid. Dont know what Korean parents are thinking other than keeping their kids out of the house as long as possible over "vacation"
