YES - it really is what you're thinking.. these are condom mascots... they were giving out free condoms at the childrens festival!!

kids in hanbok (traditional korean clothes) playing games


the weekend that just passed was a quite weekend for me... i spent both days just reading through the stduents books and writing out dialogues and short scripts for them to practice... it wasnt very fun...

in my area, the yangju festival was held... like i mentioned before, on sundays, the streets around my place are closed to that the kids can play... ride on their bikes.. skateboards... some even bring out mats and sit and sell they're stuff like baseballs cards... toys etc.. its very cute..

this sunday... the streets were closed and stalls were set up for the festival.. im not really sure what sort of festival it was but it was ok.. they had traditional dancing.. cheerleaders... this band called superkid.. belly dancing and a whole lot of stalls that had face painting, games and food.

this week is my first week of actually teaching teaching... as in real english.. its been ok.. i find alot of the students dont want to learn english and i cant really make them.. i plan a lesson and i teach.. its up to them if they participate or not .. i still get paid even if they don't hahaha

i guess now i'll just have to find activites to get them motivated to learn... they like games and watching movies... i guess games can help improve their english but i dont know how watching movies and filling out worksheets will.. we'll see how it goes.. i need to put my thinking cap on!

anyways 2moro i will be getting my mobile and my bankcard!! yayyy!! that means il get paidd!!!! then next week or the end of this week il be getting my tv and my net installed!! yayyy!!! i wont be bored anymore.. hahaha

last note: teaching middle school is not as easy as it seems -_- i love the students but they stress me out LOL

안녕~
