We found out what grades we are teaching...

drumroll please....

I will be teaching grades 10-12 and Brendan will be teaching 3-6. Weird huh?

It's been an ok week. I've eaten nothing but Korean food which mostly consists of rice, kimchi (a spicy fermented cabbage), some sort of unidentifiable meat, and soup. The soup usually looks like hot water with an onion or radish floating in it, although we did have something that tasted like cream of corn soup yesterday for lunch. There is a lot of spice in Korean cooking, but it's not too spicy. I would say that the worst thing about it is what everyone's breath smells like after eating it. (ew)

We've been spending most of our time between classes meeting people and hanging around this courtyard that's in between our 2 dorms. We still dont know where we will be living or where our schools will be. Let's hope they remember to place us together!

We are still sequestered on this University campus. It's weird because I don't really feel like i'm in Korea at all. I'm surrounded by English speakers all of the time and the landscape isn't that different from home. The only real difference is that I can't read any of the signs!
