				Today, at 10.10pm we have an opening ceremony for the English classroom.
 
 
Various teachers will come and see it, I think only from our school, and some Parents too. I've just seen some strangers walking around the classroom.
 
 
My co-teacher asked me to show interest in the visitors after the cermony. She wants me to look interested and not like I don't care. 
 
 
I just agreed. I will have to attend the graduation ceremony today, which is over an hour long.
 
 
Oh well. |

When the ceremony starts say
 
 
" Excuse me, I have to prey". Return when the ceremony is over. |

				hey there...
 
 
 
Sorry if this comes off really rude, but I've seen your threads around a lot.  It seems as if you create threads about everything and anything.  Hmmm, might I suggest you get a blog?   |

				You're right, but I'm lazy, I can't be bothered with a blog.
 
 
I've finished my time at the ceremony.
 
 
I like this forum because I can post as often as I like.    |

				| What's inside the English room? I've got 40 LCD screens that prevent me from seeing my students.  I use their normal classrooms now so I can see the students and better interact with them. |

				New tables, chairs, a mock telephone box, 3 new tv's, built into the wall, 4 new pc's, and microphones. 
 
 
It cost 50 million won to renovate. |

Hmmm...Show interest...
 
 
I would say to my co-teacher, "I can do that. By the way...How do you say 'You're the hottest mommy in the class' in Korean?" |

That's the allotment that schools typically get when applying for extra English funding; my CT and I will be figuring out our plan for the money next week. |
