So I am officially finished my 1-year contract, and about to embark on a crazy month long trip that will cover a good chunk of China, plus Hong Kong, more Korea, Japan for a brief moment, Canada and then back to Korea again for five more months of teaching....
Here's a quick update before I head off into the abyss of questionable access to computers/no energy to write blogs.......
-Bethany has been here a little more than a week and we've been having lots of fun.....she really loves the food! And she bought some sweet shirts....lego batman....how cool does that sound?
- My day to day boss Gabrielle told me yesterday she wa
s probably going to be gone when I came back.....which is really sad......she was great and I don't like my chances of finding someone anyone close to as good as her when I come back...... kind of a downer actually....her replacement is just going to be a secretary type....not a boss.....so that will be different too......
- It's kind of sad how useless my Korean skills will be across the border in China....depressing thought - going back to the feeling of not understanding
anyone or anything at all.
That's all.....

Or maybe you'll meet a Dutch-Chinese person? Or English-Chinese? Or French-Chinese? You're well equipped to chat them up, eh?
I took 1/2 year of Spanish in Grade 8...and all I can remember is 'mi yamo Paco' (which as I recall translates as 'my name is Paco') That is neither useful, nor truthful...
Have a great trip with B, Matt!
