Hello all
Today the monsoon season has begun! I woke up to a very dark apartment and when I looked outside it was raining. I was all excited as I walked to school with my umbrella, feeling a lot like Mary Poppins, when I remembered that the rain that falls here is Acid rain.I asked my co teacher how they know when it is acid rain and when it is not and she replied: It is very easy to know....there is no normal rain that falls only acid rain.
I have been teaching up a storm here at the moment but I will be getting extra classes soon (for which I am being paid extra!!) The kids still don't understand me most of the time but they seem to like me, I get little gifts every now and then, one little girl gave me a very pretty pink watch, and another girl gave me a branch with berries from her garden.
I also now have a bank account and a phone....although the phone is only in Korean and I have been to two phone places so it is now official that it has no English setting. At least I am learning to read Korean at the Korean for foreigners classes. But that is going a bit slowly, I just need to practise...It is not that difficult although then I will be able to read but won't understand what I am reading.
I don't have a lot of news at the moment....we are watching rugby somewhere in Seoul this weekend, so that will be fun! And other than that I am not sure what else is planned. I intend on doing some shopping...I need some suitable shoes for this rainy weather.So until next I write, keep well!!!
All my love
Michelle
