First day at school

So it finally happened, my first day at school. It wasn't that bad, I said hi to a few students and introduced myself to some of the teachers. It was awkward at first but that was mostly due to my lack of Korean. Later in the morning, we held a small opening ceremonies introducing the new kids with the new teachers as well. Of course I had to do a small introduction myself. Honestly, I felt quite nervous at the first day despite the fact that most of the people here don't understand a word I was saying. I said a few words, along the line of "I'm from Canada" and "let's do our best to improve your english". Then I just hung around for the rest of the day not doing anything until I decided to go home. <.<

The next day, I had to go another school which is much smaller than the main one I go to. There is 13 kids in the entire school and it had every elementary grades. I had grade 1 through 6 in one class with an age gap as wide as 6 years. I have no idea how to do this. orz

Fortunately, I was with my coteacher that day so it wasn't that bad; it was just very loud.... oh so very loud...

Now I'm back to my main school and wait for some students to do a quickie. My mentor teacher said it wouldn't last long, about 15 to 20 min. Then I another one with the kindergarteners. yay for a short day~

Hello~

Well, this is my first entry.... So I don't know what to write about cause I don't work too well under the pressure that this is a first blog... Therefore I'm going to make a brief hello and work on another one later.

So ya, I made this blog since I will have a lot of free time once I get my place in Gunsan (pronounced mostly as Goonsan for some reason). O ya, I'm in Korea now teaching English in an elementary school. Currently, I'm staying in Jeunju University for my last week at orientation. I'm getting pretty excited to start working. That or just bored since there isn't much to do around here other than listening to a dozen more lectures <_<;

Well I guess that's it for now. Next time, I'll blog about my first 3 weeks here. Til then, adieu~
