Mid Summer Nights

September is such an awesome month in Korea. The weather is much more manageable, without the humidity of summer. It does not feel like Fall at all, but reminds me of summers at home. I have been doing Saturday lessons now, as part of my contract. It is just with one girl and it's conversation, so I have been learning many new things about her. And it gives me a chance to have a real converstaion- as fun and amusing as my little kids can be! My kinder classes are great though anf it is a real treat to see how much progress they have been making. I have one class down to the art of hand signals! Oh how cruel I am! When you think about it though, their English vocab is extensive especially for a 6 year old studying English for less than a year. We went on a field trip on Wednesday to a puppet play (in Korean!). The kids were very well behaved and we had a picnic and played games. When you gather up 60 or so kids who are waist height to you, tug of war becomes much more fun!

Chusok is coming up in a couple of weeks and although I am jealous of people who are going away for the holiday (Have fun in China, Richard!), we do have some fun things planned for around here. Now if I can only find someone to ride with me on the exciting and thrilling rides at Everland!
