Coming to an end

The classes are ending this week and so the students have started saying goodbye.  I have received some rather touching thank you and I'll miss you cards for the past week. 

One of my favorites says, "I remember the first day of our Korean class."  This made me laugh.  I hope he learned a lot of Korean in my classes as apparently that's what I teach now. :)

Another one that made me smile started out as, "Dear Mr. Jessica, I liked your class very much."  My students in America always called me Mrs. but Mr. is new for me. 

I also really liked this phrase, "Teacher you going to live in the soon."  She meant, "Teacher, you are going to leave soon." but I think I rather like the first sentence.  It's...almost like living in the now, right?  Only living in the soon? I'm going to live in the future? Wait, technically I'll be living in the past from here.

Even though the main classes are almost finished I still have winter camp to teach.  I have the 1st-2nd grade next week and then the 3rd grade Mon-Wed.  I think I will probably be flying out either Thurs. or Friday.

It's crazy to see how near it is for me to leave.  In many ways I still feel as though I just arrived and have so much more to explore and see.
