I am Back in Korea.
Yes, I have been back in Korea for a couple of weeks with this point and with my girlfriend coming to the States, coming back and everything I have not found the time to post. I have managed to send out one mass email so at least everyone knows I am okay.
I am doing great, just busy of course and happy to be back. First, my new apartment is 1000x better than my last place. It has three or two and a half rooms maybe and a more western style bathroom which is nice. I am on the third floor in a big apartment complex and have a little terrace where the washing apartment is and such. I have cable, but I haven't watched any TV since I got it last week.
My job is at a prestigious kind of famous academy in Korea. The pay is a lot more so that is a good thing. The hours are better but longer days so kind of tiring. I teach preschoolers in the morning and they are very smart. Like able to write sentences and read most of them and identify the different long and short vowels. I am teaching my one class all four verses of "Here Comes Santa Clause" which they will sing with actions from memory at the Christmas Party on Christmas Eve. They are very cute! Then in the afternoon I teach elementary school children who have a high level of English or who have studied in America or somewhere and then returned to Korea. So things are looking a lot better this time around.
Of course I see my girlfriend everyday and she is here a lot so that is great! Officially it has been 91 days now but we have been seeing each other since the end of June. I will be very sad when she leaves for Germany at the end of January I guess, but at least we will have Christmas together this year!
