Yesterday I mentioned I got an announcement that I would be going to a new school. At such a short notice this not only surprised me but was quite rude regardless of the cultural background. Its not good to hear from 3rd parties what your job schedule is going to become.
At this new site I work with a woman who just quit YBM. My wife is the one that actually replaced her. She will be quitting again in a month since she will be moving to Canada in May. Its ironic because we have already met each other and working with her is going to be easy. At this new school my path crosses the kids for only 20 minutes. I teach only 8 times and the 8 times are ridiculously easy. I wasn't tired at all and I finished at 4pm.
After work I met my wife in Kyung-sung University to eat Samgyapsal and enjoy our day/evening together. All in all its going to be a nice new job. It was also great to go out and have a mid-week date.
I pray that I can find a new job as soon as possible. I am tired of the 4 classes back to back with 50 minutes. Its not quite the way I imagined teaching. The kids lose interest in 30 minutes and I can't do enough to make them interested. Sometimes its quite pathetic that the kids are falling asleep because their ability is just too low but the Korean teacher expects them to understand what I am saying. Where there is no will there certainly isn't a drive. This country is border-line retarded with motivation. Yet they say Fighting but they truly have no real knowledge of this word. Most people give up and stoop to complaining.
I am sorry I will admit it I hate most of people's thinking in this country they push themselves until they keel yet they believe that here is so much... its not true.
I used to think when East meets west a unique blend could happen but most people are rejecting western ideals (like learning English) or sometimes Eastern ways are frowned upon.
and so when paths cross memories happen... time to go for now part 1 et all.
