Way too long....sorry

Man, there’s so much to talk about. First, I don't have much time so I will not be proof reading. I'm apologizing in advance for the typos. Second, sorry I haven’t written in a while….it’s been pretty busy. I’ve been working hard at TEFL. I paid ~$330 to get this certification and it must be done by the end of March. I have to complete 13 modules plus this other section; I’m currently on module 6. You probably now understand my urgency/stress to complete this.

Second, I went to Seoul (capital of S. Korea) a few weeks ago…it was a blast! We went to an aquarium, ate delicious food, drank a lot of sangria and went to a tea shop. I love tea! Overall it was just a nice weekend away; nothing too exciting. I will definitely be back soon! I plan/hope to go to Seoul tower and do more touristy things. Maybe a temple stay? The whole time I was there I kept thinking, “why am I not here?” I absolutely loved the city feel and would love to live there. Unfortunately, now that I’m back in Gwangju, I feel a little different. Gwangju is still a city, but it feels small and it doesn’t have as many foreigners as Seoul. Although I loved Seoul I don’t know if it’s Korea enough. There are tons of foreigners and I just felt like I was in the U.S. Does this make sense? Here are a few pictures of Seoul weekend.




     
 This was in one of the fish aquariums...really?!?


Tea anyone?



Out in Seoul...






So far this week has been extremely busy preparing for our 7 year olds graduation ceremony and their talent show. This is happening all this Saturday. Wish us luck!
