I arrived this morning to a building site in the school.
No power in the office. Dust covers everywhere and what looked like asbestos tiling on the floor (later checked to be gypsum).
A bloody Bobcat on the fourth floor knocking holes in the walls.
Had to have first day of camp in the gymnasium. |

Geez, sounds familiar. We had all of our bathrooms ripped out so we have no 'indoor' toilets for our summer camp. We get to use the port a pottie outside. Lovely. And we get to compete with all the noise as well.
To top it all off, I only had 3 students show up for the first class and 5 for the second. SO BORING. I hope more come tomorrow. |

Computers turned on.

I just had the first day of my three-day intensive class for my grade 3 MS students. It was fantastic. I have two groups of five I alternate doing things with. They're happy, I'm happy, the A/C's working, we're all having fun, they really seem to be into the things I've prepared, and I really don't see how a summer 'camp' could be any better.
The whole class was my idea and I must say that I'm extremely fortunate to work at one of very few educational institutes in Korea where inititative pays off. |

Why is there a bobcat in the school? Is it the school mascot, some kids pet that got loose, tomorrows petting zoo field trip, or just some wild animal that stuck in there somehow?
I have to deal with a hornets nest but a bobcat, sheesh. |
