Alone with my thoughts....
I haven't yet started to feel homesick, but I'm definately feeling like Nikki/Jessica from the show "Heroes" loool Let me explain....
Being here on my own in a foreign land leads to many moments of me being accompanied with nothing but my thoughts....I've had many thoughts crossing my mind and its getting to dangerous degrees....I'm not talking to myself yet, but it's getting there!!
I've always been an introverted person so its not such a big deal BUT, it is definately making me define the limits of my rationality and set some boundaries to create a tunnel vision on my future goals and aspirations...
I love it here so far, I know myself, I either love it or hate it from the beginning, and so far, I'm liking it, but I need to get into focus, this is not an average part-time/full-time job where I can call in sick if I don't feel like going, or not be enthusiastic about what I'm paid to do......
This is teaching, its fun, even when my body is not in a "fun" mode!
The big lesson I've been learning lately is this: pick a major goal, and stick to it.
WE may be distracted in so many ways and so many levels from achieving that what we seek in life, yet it is only WE who can change that, literally.
On another note, I haven't adjusted to Korean food, and seriously look forward to checking out Seoul and shop for food there!!!
Aparantly I missed out on a trip for the teachers this year, so I wonder where they'll go next time! The teachers go on a trip I guess funded by the school to a different city each year: last year they went to Singapore, the just went to Vietnam this past January, I'll cross my fingers and hope they're going to Thailand or Indonesia next time!!!!
We only had the grade 3 class today because the school had their elections, so the grade fivers weren't gonna make it....which is okay with me, been at my desk all day, and not really complaining about it!!!
Thank GOD its Friday tomorrow!
