Helmet Received!

Got the helmet back today. It came to Daeyoung's hagwon and I was able to pick it up after school before going to the climbing gym. I went for an hour or so, tired myself out sufficiently and am now wasting my time on the computer. There is always enough of a problem or task to keep me here at my desk for hours each day without being able to truly justify the time spent.

I received my first complaint of sorts today. A mother told me she was concerned about her daughter, concerned that she didn't understand what was going on in class. Her class in particular has a textbook so below their actual abilities that the comment surprised the hell out of me. In class today we talked about "how many____?" It's really easy. Normally we use the terribly boring book, Hip Hip (shoot me please) Hooray, but today we looked at cars and trucks and buildings out the window and counted them instead. She said I don't understand a few times, and we went over again. "look two cars. how many cars? two cars."

And here are some random New Year's pictures. Traci accidentally erased her entire card, so there are no embarrasing pictures of me. Too bad.





Traci sures knows how to party.



Here she is giving beer to the elderly. She's so kind in that way, always looking out for others.


Joe thought he was real cool that night. It's too bad he wasn't. I've got a video of him finally getting the prancing down after much practice. Any takers?
