Stepping out some more!

---

Well today I trekked to work alone as Claire goes right from Seoul to work on Monday mornings. I was pretty nervous but I have convinced myself that I traveled across the world alone so I can travel across the city alone, besides the subway system here is beyond easy to understand!
I taught a bit alone today which I find easier. There isn't so much pressure to be perfect and it just starts to come naturally. I have a couple kids with some behavioural issues which is hard to deal with just because I am not used to it and I don't want to make them hate me right off. My parents would both know exactly how to deal with them. My last class is made up of all boys that were not strong enough to move on with the girls. Their grammar is terrible. Today we were working on have and has and they did NOT get it. Mom if you have any suggestions send them my way!
Lunch today was a bit better than on Friday, I did not take any Kimchi this time though! The one side was allllll mushrooms so I was like NIIIIIIICE!
I talked to Natasha and Mike a lot more after work and got more advice from them which is awesome. They also told me how to get to the Home Plus which is the big grocery store down the road. I went there and got 2 things of OJ, a carton of Grape juice, some salsa and nacho's, pasta and fruit. I get a lot of looks because I am white but I get a lot of smiles to which is nice because it makes me feel a bit more welcome!
Anyway time to eat some dinner and then get to bed.
Oh and I have made the decision that for my first break which is considered summer break sometime in the summer for a week, I am going down to Queensland to visit Kate! The flights are about $600 round trip so I am so there!!

Hi Meg, sounds like your doin great and adjusting well. It's not too hard being away, is it ? Passion for what you are doing eases the distance. I have to agree with your friend, how about some pics with you in them. How am I supposed to believe your really in Korea ??? Would love to see some pics with you in them. Talk soon, be careful. Luv Uncle Aaron
