A little more frazzled, a little less strain

If that doesn't make sense, it's ok. Most things in Korea don't really make sense. So my co-teaching is officially canceled, which is both a yay! and an ugh!. Yay! for the fact that my teaching career is postponed a little bit more, and an ugh! because I won't have real life teaching practice until my first day when I'm standing at the front of my first class, which is phonics for the lowest level. Apparently, I'm so awesome, they think that I'll be good with the kids who don't speak any English (or barely any). Little do they know, I'm planning on bribing them with Silly Bandz (if I can get them) and mucho candy. Muahahaha. I am so evil :P

But yea, I'm a little more frazzled because the head boss decided that we should do 2 demos a day (the same demo, just twice a day with improvements), starting tomorrow. So basically, I'll be working from noon until 9 (although I think we'll get out around 10ish if we're lucky) Friday, Saturday, and then Monday through Saturday. Oh, and no lunch break (although Thomas said we could just simply pack our own lunch and eat during demos). Thank god, we have Sunday completely off. Although, I'm probably going to prep for all of my demos on Sunday. So yea, basically working all Sunday, but on my own time. I'm going to let my OCD ride the reigns (I'm pretty sure that's not even a phrase), and over-prepare my lesson plans to include the first 3-5 days. Yup, that's right. I'm insane. Korea has officially kicked the procrastinator out of me (at least, for now haha).

Classes start the 23rd, so I should hopefully get back to a more normal schedule (2-10), plus I'll get weekends off. That first weekend of school is the weekend of the international bodypainting festival in Daegu! It should be a LOT of fun. Let's just hope the boss doesn't pull a company outing that weekend (although, it WOULD be paid for). I'm conflicted, free (expensive) food and drinks or awesome bodypainting in Daegu?? I can't choose!!! >_<

So yea, I'll basically be a ghost (maybe) for the next week. I'll probably be online, but not for any long periods of time (unless we manage to get some miraculous free time). Semi-slacking off the first two weeks is really kicking us in the ass now. It sucks to be the new teachers from this week and next. They'll basically have no break from work until work actually starts (and it lets up a bit)

<3 <3 !! I also have my mailing address, so let me know if you want it!
