My 6th graders are going on a school trip, meaning I have no lessons tommorow. Ah, is this not happiness?

The object of my affection sends one of her 2nd Grade students into my class to tell me "I love you teacher" after I have been run ragged all day by the loveable little g*ts. Ah, is this not happiness?

Finding a shop in Korea that sells English tea and cheese. Ah, is this not happiness?

Sorry, can't think of any more off the top of my head: this is the site that gave me the idea...

What have been some of the most blissful moments in your time in Korea, or indeed in life?

Those days of no classes become torture after a couple of years. Especially when you share an office with the most ghastly adjummas Korea has to offer. All should be sterilized. That's what I call happiness. Knowing that in a month I'll be home = happiness since I'll have unlimited access to all manner of deliciously dark pleasures that doth delight mine soul - stuffed olives and French cheese, for instance. I'll miss Korea and its leggy babes in particular and I will definitely shed a tear when that plane takes off, but otherwise.....

There may well be cheese here and it may well say "produced in France" on the lable, but is it any good? Is it ripened properly? Is in unpasteurised? Does it taste like heaven as its supposed to?

No it doesn't.

There is pizza here too and Chinese food. But does that taste like its supposed to?

No it doesn't.

Reading all the Hagwon horror stories on here often makes me feel good about myself, but then again, I am a rather shallow so and so.
