Anyong Hasseo! (Translation: Hi!)

Well hello everyone, greetings from a really strange land on the other side of the world.

I'm updating from the faculty computer at my afternoon school, So it won't be a very long or complete update, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until I get set up in my new place for a more complete update.

Living in Korea is hard! I want to put this out right now that it doesn't matter how much prep you put yourself through, it is rough. I'm not saying it's insurmountable or that its something I can't do. I don't know the answers to these yet. But it is dificult. Furthermore for those considering coming, if you can come with someone that you care about and trust then I reccomend it. I think having that other friendly and familiar face would make all the world of difference. You would still cry and feel lost for the first bit I'm sure, but I don't think you would feel as alone.

That said I don't want to make it sound all bad in my little window I'm giving right now. My director is fantastic and the people I work with have been wonderful to me, and the kids, while a handful are absolutely adorable. I tried to put up a picture, but no such luck for now.

More from me later!

Jamie
