HamuHamu...what happened? Too much drinking or food poisoning? I had something similar sounding happen to me as well, but I didn't get it on any of the kids. By the way, can you post the pic they drew?

Ugh...I guess I should say that I am honoured to have made so many people laugh today..... Embarassed

Unfortunately I left Korea after that contract and went home for a few months so the picture is neatly tucked away in a box of other "souvenirs" at my folks place, so I can't post it. I'll be heading home again in a few months so if I have time I will dig it out and take a picture of it -- make you all laugh again!!!

It was definitely food poisoning -- I threw up twice in the taxi home (and it was only a 1600 won taxi ride!! Fortunately my supervisor had given me a plastic bag to take with me!) By the time I got home it was... uh, well.... let's just say, if I wasn't bent over the toilet, I was sitting on it....I will NEVER EVER eat KFC again!!!!!

(Everyone kept wanting me to go to the hospital, and while I can understand the sentiment, did you ever stop to wonder HOW people with food poisoning GET to the hospital? Unless you superglued a toilet to your butt, it would be pretty near impossible........ Shocked

I almost cried in front of a student 2 days ago because he just doesn't care about my class; he shows his indifference everytime he's there. I got mad and he got mad and I started to tear up. I think I ruined my authoritative position with him b/c of it. Crying or Very sad
