Today, a student (that I don't have in any of my classes) came up and said hello to me. Then, in a concerned voice,
she said, "Your name is Jessica, right?"
me, "That's right."
her, "Sometimes, do you cry?"
me, "...um. Sure. I cry sometimes." (?)
her, "Oh. Yeah..."
me, "why?"
her, "I mean, because you are so sick. Does it make you cry?"
me, "...oh. I'm not sick anymore. I am ALL better."
her, "that's good! bye!"
me, "bye..."
This may explain why my 3rd grade students have been asking me lately, "Are you ok?!" I'm pretty sure they think I am dying or something.
In other news...
It's monsoon season in Korea! While so far it's been a little disappointing (one typhoon which was pretty weak if you ask me), the season is still young. And I already miss the sun. I did get adorable rainboots (which have heels--only in Korea) and a rain jacket for the occasion. Although they don't really do much for keeping me dry. And the shoes (like every other pair I own) make my feet bleed. :( Somehow I still end up drenched. It's a good thing I like rain! :-p
I was also able to get two "normal" sized towels at the same place I bought my rainboots!!!!! (yes, this statement deserves that many exclaimation marks. Trust me.) They use tiny hand towels here, so it was like I struck gold when I found a standard sized towel. That was a few weeks ago and I am still quite happy about it. :)
There's not much else to update on other than to say I am going to North Korea this weekend. 0:-) I promise to behave. (So, technically I am going to the DMZ and there is a place where if you stand on one side of the room you are officially IN North Korea.)
That's pretty much everything.
