School

Today is going to be my first day of teaching. I'm a little nervous about keeping discipline and being an exciting teacher. However, the kids are super cute and I'm excited to work with them. Things are slowly getting better. I've had the chance to explore more of the town, and as I get more comfortable with the language I'll go do even more. In Dangjin, it is mostly the young people who know English. The older ones really don't know much. I'm kinda teaching myself the language with some books in our apartment. It's exciting to figure out how to read some words. While I was exploring yesterday I was also excited to find sort of the outskirts of town. I could see trees and rice fields and hear birds and stuff. Very happy. Right by our apartment it's pretty much all cement. Still no internet in the apartment. I guess we'll get it fixed in a week or two--when the testing is over for the middle school students. Mr. Kim and Mrs. Baek are quite busy until then. Thank you so much for all your prayers!!
