Week is winding down

Wednesday June 19th
Pretty decent day. Really not much happened. It seemed to go pretty quickly. I got through the day with no cries and no near cries!  I love it when that happens. All of my Kindy kids were pretty well behaved. My first graders were pretty well behaved.
My one on one with Chloe went well too. She is much more comfortable talking if we do something as we talk. Instead of just sitting talking, if we play something in the gym, she just talks and talks. Her and her sister both are climbers, and at any chance will try to climb me. It doesnt bother me, but I am always afraid that if some parent sees me with kids climbing on me, they might do a double take. If I am just standing, Chloe will just start to climb up me. I think it is awesome, because I can totally see myself doing the same thing. I dont know if I did... but I do know that I love climbing trees. That fear though of what parents may think...that could just be the western view. Like I said, it seems like here people are less likely to jump to the same crazy conclusions like in the west and parents can get mad if we give their child less physical attention. Kids will complain and so will the parents if we do not pick up and hug the kids. Kids also want to climb in my lap, have me read them stories, even if I am just sitting down on the benches in the lobby, it is not uncommon for one of my students (and other times other ECC students that I do not know but that know me) will just climb up on my lap. Many kids say 'daddy' often jokingly. Its funny to think that these kids think of me as a father type figure, and it is surreal to think that these kids could actually be mine if I had kids right out of college.
One thing that I did not say yesterday, was how I taught one of my Australia kids to open the door. Yes... opening the door. It is a glass door that swings both ways. Everyone (including him) said he could not open it because he was week. Well I observed him and noticed it was because he was doing it wrong. Instead of pushing or pulling it, he was pulling down on the handle and pushing with the hand closes to the hinges. Well I showed him how to do it right. And he was able to do it himself. Christina talked about how she was so surprised that Hayden was able to do this himself and how he was just going in and out and how he didnt need help. So that made me happy.
My curtains came in today. Not exactly what I was wanting... but I will be able to fix it soon. Now I need to find the best way to hand the cross bar across the two stands. I can do it one way, but I would like to find something better. Something that will make setup easier. I am also going to use Sarahs sewing machine to lengthen the drapes. It is easy to do, and I know how to... I just need to borrow it and hope it works. If it does not, I will still be able to set it up for Monday.  Hopefully I will be able make the sign for Monday too. as of right now, I have no plans for the weekend, so hopefully I can get it all done and looking as awesome as I hope. When push comes to shove after I finish my sign) these things will have about 200000 won invested. Far more than I imagined, but I keep going, because I am so excited about it.It is just fun for me to do. I enjoy making and doing things so much... Its cheesy, but I love cheese!
I had McDonalds for dinner. Not because I was wanting McDonalds, but I was craving bacon. Bacon is not popular in Korea. Even the bacon at McDonalds is not great. But sometimes you just need some bacon in life. I need to go to costco sometime and buy bacon. Then I can cook bacon at home.
Sat outside with my fellow Bobo teachers and they had beer and soju... I had Oreo's and milk. Sometimes cookies and milk are just great to have. We were not out for long... Now I am up in my room, and watching The Kings Speech. Such a great movie!!!
Okay, thats all for now.
