i am actually giddy

happy, so happy! today i got my new schedule for the next semester. now the only real reason i resigned with my school was because they promised better hours, better pay, a month off, yada yada yada... but in the back of my head i always kinda expected the worse. but today, i got the new schedule, and it is exactly what it is supposed to be: 9:00 - 4:40 every day. every day. if i could show you the smile i had on my face when i saw it. and i get an hour off every day to prep for the night classes or run errands or actually try drawing again. i haven't had time to make a new sketch this whole last month. it's not all cupcakes and sugar mamas, though, i guess i have to start eating lunch with the kids now... it'll suck to miss out on that crucial 30 minutes of adult time everyday, but i'll live... ya'know, unless i start to choke and the kids aren't strong enough or have long enough arms for the heimlich. ohh, plus no more boring kid for the tutor. of course that means i bought the seeker, the dark is rising for nothing.
plus, all the people i have grown to like at work are leaving for greener pastures, leaving the people i'm at best ambivalent about. ugh, i hope the new group of teachers getting in this weekend rock, at least a little.
what else? um, my self improvement plan need a restart. on monday, i'll have to start playing guitar, sketching, working out, cooking for myself, and learning korean all over again. after all, i only have at least 13 more months here in korea. if i do stay another year, it will definitely have to be out of the city. po-hang, busan, jeju- i hear you calling me... you just have to wait 13 months... of course if i move to anyone those places, i really will have to learn at least a 2nd grader level of korean.
that's about all from this side of the pacific, i'll try to make sure to do more than 2 posts a month from now on
good god! what's that?

suckas

You're going to stay in Korea after this next 13 month teaching cycle is up? You ever going to come back to the U.S.?

Also, notice my use of capital letters. It is amazing what a shift key will do for you.

Peace,
