My time in Korea is finally coming to an end. I’ve got about 1 month left before I hop on a plane and head to Europe. Next week is 1 of my 2 vacation weeks. The plan is to head down to Busan for the week. Busan is an awesome beach town at the south [...]

Quiet
January 22nd, 2010 · No Comments · Green Day, LCI
Things have been quiet in the Rabbit Hole called Korea. I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. I went to a pretty solid Green Day concert on Monday in Seoul, and that really helped to pick up the pace of the week. No matter how old Green Day actually [...]

My kindergartners discovered how to use the built in webcam on my computer the other day. I was going through some of my pictures and found these. What a bunch of goof balls. 10 more days until Cambodia. Can’t wait for it. Listening to Mumford & Sons Little Lion Man.

I went on my first field trip with LCI today. Students and staff piled onto buses and we took a 5 minute drive to Bundang Central Park. The park was pretty awesome and there was tons of space for the kids to spazz out and move around. We played a variety of games that included [...]

It’s been a whirlwind of a week….
September 7th, 2009 · 1 Comment · LCI, The Maccabees
The past has been the first week (while in Korea) where I’ve felt there is not enough time in the day to get everything I want to do done. Classes have been going very well. We started a new semester on Monday (8/31) and my Co-teacher rearranged my morning routine which totally threw off the [...]
