It is getting busier and busier here in Korea. The days are getting warmer, the rainy season is coming, and I am getting up at 5:30am almost every morning. The air is clear, the sun is usually already up, and I get a work out guided by a man who doesn't speak English. It is truely wonderful.
Yes, the kumdo lessons are going well. I have learned that I am too stiff and need to learn to relax. I also have learned that I have to practice counting in Korean. I had to do so in class today and I keep skipping 8. I feel like an idiot, but I just count 9 twice so as not to distract the people too much.
The kindergarten class is as energetic as usual, but they seem to be better behaved. They are starting to really enjoy toying with me though. I am not sure if this is a good or bad thing as it is mostly before and after class. They still are having a hard time with when it is time to go to the bathroom and get a drink of water. I am having a hard time sticking to the rule of not letting them go during class as I am not certain if they really have to go or not, and I am not really interested in having wet children on my hands.
My online course was supposed to end this Saturday, but they decided to extend it until the end of the month. I was going to have a hard time finishing by Saturday, so I was a little worried, but now that this news has come forth, I am very glad. It seems that things have once again worked themselves out in my somewhat mystical and blessed life.
I guess there isn't much else going on, and I should get to bed as it is 11:20pm and I have to get up at 5:30am. Hope all is well on the homefront.
