Friday night we had a school dinner. We had "Korean BBQ" which is absolutely amazing. I had to stand up and give a "speech" and accept a plant as one of the new teachers.
After dinner we headed to another room where we sang. I was forced to sing a song. I chose "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga. It was absolutely hilarious.

| My co-teacher and I spent the day together on Saturday. We went to many art exhibits and then went window shopping, or "eye shopping" as they say in konglish here. |
Sunday was spent reading and writing in a cafe in the morning and then headed out to the English bookstore for more reading material in the afternoon. After browsing the books for over an hour, I finally found the perfect book. I am very pleased with my purchase.
I have today (Monday) and tomorrow off from work as tomorrow is a national holiday. I attempted to go to the bank today, but that turned out to be an epic fail on my part. It's frustrating not knowing the language at times. I did manage to set up an automatic payment for my internet bill, so today hasn't been a complete loss. It is less than $8 for my internet here! I rather like that price.
This has been a very busy but for the most part fun and low-key weekend. I start teaching my first class on Thursday so I am getting excited! I will finally have a schedule after this week! Well, as much as one can have in Korea, that is.
