Well, like many who work in the public school system, I have the rest of the week off after "teaching" 1 40 minute class this morning. I plan to do feck all for this break. Literally, I don't even plan to leave the house for a week. What have you got planned?

As you should know, every public school and their principal are different. You are at a lucky school I guess. Today is Tuesday, I have 3 classes, and Wed. - Fri. exams and I will be sitting on my butt planning the up coming after school program. Luckily, I will be able to leave after lunch this year.

Have a great week, you devil.

Oh, and in my one 40 minute class, which starts in 25 minutes, I've just found a Mr. Bean video on YouTube. I'm gonna show them that and then get them to write a script for it for homework. Then I'm going home until next Tuesday.

Ahh. Hard life.

I'm p.s but don't get days off, even during next weeks midterms I have to watch the students, or so I was told. I feel like they will just have me sit in the office though....

either way, whatever. Better then any job back home.....

Apparently it's up to the Principals about opening for next week. The office of education can ask the schools to be open but the decision is the Principal's. I know there's been pressure from parents about opening but meh!!! Sometimes confucianism can be good. Principals outrank supervisors.

I'm off from Thursday this week, exams thursday and Friday = no school.

This week-
Gym = Friday day
Next week-
Saturday = Damyeong to the Bamboo festival
Sunday = Boseong to the tea fields
Monday = Another trip on the way back up

Tuesday - Friday = Nothing planned yet. Probably local exploring.

Saturday - Sunday = Butterfly festival

Following week-
Monday = No school
Wednesday = Everland with my school
Thursday = Teachers day no school

There'll probably be a fair bit of bowling in there as well.

Life's hard!

Hampyeong - South west of Korea.

It'll probably be pretty packed but worth a visit.

yeah, it seems to depend on the schools a lot. out of the next 3 weeks, i am only working on the 6th, the 7th, the 13th and the 14th.

thats it! 4 days out of the next 3 weeks! all the other days are holidays for various reasons...

i'm planning trips to pusan, seoul, daejeon and gunsan, to spend time with some friends.
