Still Studying... - Friday June 27, 2008

After playing with clocks all day for my second graders to learn "What time is it?," I spent the rest of the day in the first grade office. I was there until I had my guitar lessons at 2:30PM.

I don't remember what happened after guitar lessons...the problem with being slow to update your blog...memory loss.

I went to the meeting tonight. The topic was about traveling.^^ I love talking about traveling. The people in my group had been to Australia, the Philippines, etc. One guy took a biking tour from Wonju to Pusan over the course of only four days! That is an intense ride! We talked about most memorable traveling moments. One of mine was this amazing little girl in Myanmar named Thay Thay Win. Whenever I would ask her her name (I knew her name...I just liked how she said it), she would say "Thay Thay Win" in the cutest voice ever and bow her head as she said, "Win." I love that little girl. We hugged each other every time we saw each other, we danced together, and we just hung out whenever we could. Love, love, love that girl!

After the meeting, we headed to our usual Makoli place. I talked a lot to Hae In and Jay because he was actually at the meeting tonight!! So excited! He is one of my best Korean guy friends! At one point, I started worrying about my first tour I'm supposed to give at the Sharing House tomorrow, so I left for a bit to sit outside and read my notes. Seriously, I don't feel prepared to give all of that incredibly important information to a group of people during a museum tour. I'm sure it'll all be okay when I get started, but for now...semi-terrified.

I was only out there for a short time because Jay came to talk to me. We talked about the Sharing House a bit, and then he talked me into coming back inside. We spent a bit more time talking. I let it slip that last week is my last week in Wonju which means they may have a going away party for me. I was kind of hoping to avoid sad goodbyes, but I think it's inevitable.

I got home around 12:30 or 1:00 this time. Have to get up early to head to Seoul in the morning.

I finally realized that there is a bus that goes straight to Gangbyeon versus me taking a bus to Gangnam and transferring to the subway to head to Gangbyeon station. It only took me a year to figure it out. Ha!

Anyway, peace out.
