Another weekend gone.

Friday September 27th
Field trip day! We went on a field trip to "The Pang Show" It is an interactive show... It started off with the kids making bread. Then we spent a long time taking pictures. Then there was the show. It is one of the cooking type of shows that are popular in Korea. They dance, and have food... It was fun. One of the girls can and sat in my lap... all of the kids laughed. Later I was selected to go up in front and interact with them. Just miming what the actors did. The kids all liked it. My co teachers all thought it was funny. One took a short video of it, so I'll have to see if I can get a copy to post. We left the show and went back to ECC. By the time we got there... it was already almost the end of the day. We had lunch with the kids (I had to eat with Australia). We had spaghetti with brown noodle sauce. All of the kids call it black noodles. All of the kids make a huge mess when the eat it. It is a given... Emily spilled a little on her. So she started to cry. She has a small brown stain and she cried and had to change.... some of the other kids shirts had about as much brown on them as white. They did care... Emily did. Of course the other kids saw her cry and asked why she was crying... I said it was because she spilled stuff on her shirt.  Some of the kids were surprised it made her cry... like "thats all?" There are some students that I think first grade will be tough for... She is one of them. Super smart, but she can be super sensitive.
After lunch, there was one period left... so instead of getting the teaching done (like I wanted to do) I had to have a birthday party. It was for Regina. So we had cake and took pictures. After the cake and pictures there was 15 minutes left of the day. So I just let the kids play.
Davids mom observed my first grade class. I wish she would observe every day. He behaved most of the class. It made it so much easier to teach with him sitting in his chair and doing work.
My 3rd graders we had a review day, so I played concentration with them. It was pretty good, but I had way too many cards.
At night we played poker. We played poker for a long time... till about 330 am. I won the first game, and Rob won the second game. the second game

Saturday September 28th
Sleep in... Wake up. Start cleaning room. Do some laundry. We are having a going away dinner for Ama and Sarah. Ama wants Dakalbi... but the place we were going to was full. So we went and got BBQ. Delicious as always. We went to Shamrocks. There was a promotion. 3 pints of Guiness and you get a free umbrella. Well, Why not? Rob Sarah and I did it and got our umbrellas. After Shamarocks, some of us went to Monster Pizza. Then we went to B2 and did some Dancing. Ama was tired, so he and some people left. It started raining, so I was glad I drank 3 Guniesses and got an umbrella. Yufei was coming out, so we met him at Monster Pizza. We went to a lounge and bought a bottle. We sat drinking and talking for several hours. We were then going to head home. Another foreigner asked us were a bar was. We walked with him there... but we were not feeling it, so we left. We cabbed home. It was a fun night, but not as exciting as I was hoping for. We were out late... Ama leaving early kinda killed it.

Sunder September 29th.
Slept a lot. Cleaned my room a little. Cleaned my bathroom! Typed up some about Japan (maybe will post on Monday). Walked around the neighborhood. Did laundry. Ordered McDelivery. Watched Fievel Goes West. Pretty much a nothing day... and I am okay with that!
