So it was the last Friday of winter camp for the buggers, and they kept saying "Teacher. Play Game!" and I fell for their cute little faces. So I let them play video games for the last hour.
This is Christopher. He is so cute. He is always getting left behind and the short end of the stick by the other boys. His glasses are at least 2 inches thick...so cute.
So the snow fell in sheets. It was the first time in a LONG time that Korea (and other parts of Asia) saw that much snow. It was beautiful. I waited outside for over an hour for the bus (no lie), but all in all it was wonderful. There was so much buzz around town because no one knew what to do. I was a little worried I'd get snowed in and be stuck in North Korea until rescue efforts could find me. BUT, my fears were unfounded, the city cleaned up the street in a day and the school had its like first ever snow day!

I love these boys. The one with the glasses is Alex who is very passionate and when he gets upset, he goes off in Korean and its the funniest thing to witness when you dont understand what he's saying. The other guy is Harry. They are both top students and understand English really well.
My Winter Camp boys...I did have three girls but they're hiding in the back.
So even though the school term ended for the kids back on December 28th, I still had to come in to an empty school to make lessons for two weeks of winter camp. My winter camp lasted from January 01st to February 15th. It was great fun. I only had about 15 students come in the first week, and about 10 the second week so it was cozy and I remembered everyone's English names and I got to talk to them.
your apartment is gorgeous and so is your class! everything looks so spacious and new. i love thick glasses.
