So it's been a long time

Ok, sorry I have been busy. Yes I have been busy but i also just don't do the blog thing real well.  So I am going to try to make more of an effort.  also, you are on Facebook.com look me up.  there are a crap ton pics up.  
Anyways, let see what is going on. I work at Nokcheon Middle school in Wolgea.  I have 23 classes with approximately 36 students each.  It is getting cold outside, a winter coat is needed. It actually snowed two Thursdays ago. The schools class rooms are warm. However, if you are walking anywhere in the school put on your coat. the windows are open and it is as cold in the halls as it is outside. Something about exchanging the air.  I don't get it but oh well.  
Since I have been here I have gone to a school festival.  It is a talent show type deal. the students and some of the teachers participated.  If I had any notice I would have done something.  Maybe I could have sang a song.  very fun.  We also had a sports and field day.  That was the first really cold day and I was not prepared for the crap weather and being outside all day.  The teachers and the parents played tug of war, we won twice.  
For winter brake I teaching a three week English camp. It will be an more intense course. About 12 students for four hours a day.  I am really excited and looking forward to having a smaller class and being able to do more experimental things I can't do with 4o students.
Some of my friends and I are thinking about traveling around Asia for two weeks.  I won't be coming home for Christmas but many of us won't be and I think it will be cool to see Christmas in a different country.  So I think that is it.  but send me questions if you have any.  I am really going to try to do like a weekly thing.  Who knows maybe not.  Miss you all.  By the way if anyone wants to come see Seoul you have a place to stay.  
Oh, real quick Lavonne's mom was just here and had a blast.  Shana's good friend Shawn is coming this next week.  Plus my friend Heather will be joining me in Seoul in January.  I am ubber excited.
