Graduation Tears

Who is the girl sitting in the class crying?? Ohthat will be Leanne Teacher!!
Monday was my lastteaching day with my Kindergarten classes and i was a mess. I couldn't believe that it had been a year and they were now ready to take their first steps towards Elementary School. I think any teacher that lives here or anywhere else Teaching English as a Foreign Language will ultimatleyat some point be sad to go. I mean how can you not become attached to the kids, suppose its just human nature. I was of course not the only feeling depressed as my fellow kindy teacher Erin was also finishing.

I movd in with Erin on my first couple of nights in Seoul until my apartment was ready with Ariel. Erin met i guy in the Military like me, she got married here and she is also geting posted to Washington! would you belive it?? Strange eh!

This was me marking my kids work!!

So on Monday night feeling rather dis heartened i went out with Julia for a few drinks. Then entertained the local McDonalds as we were both starving. P.S Julia is a Vegetarian!! bad girl, she said she craves Burgers though! ha ha

Okay so we ordered 1 big mac meal, and a cheese burger meal with an extra cheese burger! They didn't understand! for two people stading ordering we were presented with 3 meals! figures eh! i mean why would anyone want just one more cheese burger????



Also Korea now has introduced the Mc Muffin!!! Yes you can now get breakfasts in Mcdonalds! Julia translated the poster which read "Mc Breakfast" Why do they get in now when i'm leaving!! damn....
