Yum, food

I don't have much to write about but I wanted to share my strange but good day today.

It began as normal.  I have 5th years from 9-12.  We studied the seasons today and it went well enough.  During their break they have taken up to playing dodgeball in the class.  I keep waiting for something to break (either on a child or off a desk) but so far everything has been fine.  I quite enjoy that class.

Something strange happened with the kindergarten and after-school classes.  They actually listened to me today!  And participated.  And behaved.  It was all rather strange although I am not complaining about it one bit.  In fact, the kindergarten class was so well behaved today that I actually ran out of material.  It normally takes twice as long to get through everything with them.

Now on to the best of part of the day week.  After school I consumed my first hamburger and fries in Korea--AND my first hamburger and fries of the year.  Oh my, how I have missed the amazing taste of hamburger.  It was absolutely perfect, too.  Then, to make perfect even more amazing, I had a coke with the dinner.  That's right, my first coke since coming here as well!  I didn't even realize that I wanted something like this until it was mentioned.  Now I am quite happy.  Although I have been eating extremely healthy since moving here, I'm still me...and nothing can replace a hamburger and fries.  Nothing.

Now my stomach is full and content.  I can now say that I have eaten a hamburger and fries while in Korea.  (And don't tell anyone, but it was so much better than anything I have ever ordered in the US--minus the cheeseburgers from Resurrection Alehouse in Philly.  I believe those are the best in the world.)
