So... im horrible at updating my blog :P

I guess i will just give an overview of my life here since october

November:

The 3 american teachers had a 'Thanksgiving' dinner that consisted of Fried Chicken, Instant Mashed Potatoes (courtesy of one of the Korean teachers sister), Salad, Walnut pie (no pecans) and chocolate cake. I did have a photo of the dinner but it has mysteriously disappeared from my computer (or maybe I just imagined taking it).
November also brought the first snow fall - Here is a photo album of the first snow fall of the winter

December:

December came unfortunately did not bring much more snow then November did. I almost had a white christmas. It snowed on the 23rd but melted away before christmas :(.
The kindergarten had a winter festival on the 23rd of december that included English songs and skits that I had taught them.

The photo album includes pictures from the festival, and also other Christmas activites that happened at the church. (plus the little bit of snow on the 23rd)
Christmas: Got a christmas package from my family that included some nice warm gloves, stuff for my camera and a scarf that was made here in Korea - traveled to America to be bought and then shipped back to Korea.
I got a winter vacation from Christmas day to Janurary 4th. I spent a few days in Seoul and then traveled down to Busan for the new year.
Album 1
Album 2
2 photo albums of my winter vacation. I got to see a temple, a fortress, the first sunrise of the new year, and the biggest Methodist church in Korea (to name a few)

Janurary:
Nothing special has happened so far this year. I went bowling with the college group on Sunday and that is about it :P

Non-dated randomness:
I am now a part of the young adults choir/praise band. I can sing parts of the songs and frantically try to read the parts I dont know so i can sing along. Most of the time though I am standing up there with a confused look on my face while staring at the paper (trying to decipher the Hangul) No pictures of it yet but i will try to get someone to take a picture of everyone on stage as proof that i can sing in Korean :P


Yep... so that is my life in the last few months
