Why so slow on updates?
I've usually got tons of stuff to say, and if you know me then you know it's unlikely that I've just ran verbally dry all of the sudden. In all honesty I haven't been exactly enthusaistic about updating the blog these past few days. Why? Because I can't use my computer! Oh, you just don't know how annoying it is until you've experienced computer separation for yourself.
Because Radioshak didn't know what they were talking about, I am now without converters or adapters. Wonderful. I went by Lotte Mart (Think, Korean Wal-mart only less annoying) but I couldn't find any Korea to US adapters. I'm still searching, so if ANYONE knows where I could find an adapter I would appreciate your input.
Anyway, I've got pictures to upload, but I can't do that until I can use my own computer, whose battery is unfortunately drained. The computer I use at the motel is slow on the type so there are times when I type faster than the computer can keep up with. The backspace button is the size of a pea and there's no spell check! Oh, don't you judge. I know you use it too!
Anyway, for now you'll just have to suffer through my pictureless, useful informationless, typo filled blogs. I'll do my best to get my computer back up soon.
Really, I have tons of great things to blog about, but using this computer to blog is like sharing intimate secrets with a stranger. No fun.
So, for the time being I'll just leave you with this:
MEMORABLE QUOTES
Warm Welcome
Nick: "Audra, this is Lindsay." *Motions to one of the Korean teachers who just entered the room.*
Me: "Hello."
Linsay: "Hello. Welcome to your miserable life."
Evil Squash
There are about 6 kids in one of the older kids morning classes. Yesterday they were talking about what they "can" and "can't" do. Steven is one of the boys in the class, and he says some of the most intersting things...
Nick: "Can you drive a bumper car?"
Steven: "I like sports cars!"
Nick: "Sports cars? Wow!
Steven: "There's an evil pumpkin in my sports car!"
Gender Identity Disorder
An older class in the afternoon was going over classroom objects and people. Dan is one of the more rambunctious boys in the room. This is what he had to say...
Nick: (Pointing to a picture of a female teacher)"Who is this?"
Dan: "Nick Teacher!"
Nick: "Nick Teacher? But that's a girl! Do you mean Audra Teacher?"
Dan: "No! Nick Teacher is a girl, and Audra Teacher is a boy!"
Today
Well, I'm hyped up on an "Americano Espresso Coffee" from Dunkin' Donuts (which is right across the street from work, AND I ordered in Korean! Which isn't saying much because Americano, espresso, and coffee are all borrowed English words...), so I'm ready to tackle this long busy day ahead! It's training day #2 with 9 classes ranging from Kindergarten to Middle school. I'm ready!
Are you?
