Merry Christmas from the other side of the world.

Anyong Hasseo and happy Holidays from the Land of the Morning Calm.

I'm sorry for the lack of updates in recent days. I'm afraid that I'm running without internet of my own and wireless in this country seems to be a fickelt mistress. At times its there to support you in your communicative endeavours, while at other times it kicks you out on your ass and leaves you out in the cold, laughing while you you watch helplessly as your record collection goes flying from the third story window.

So I'm a teacher now, "James Teacher" to be precise. I teach kids of all ages, ranging from grades one and two in the morning, and grades five to seven in the afternoon and evenings. The picture above is my grade one class, the "Lion King" class (Hey, I didn't name them) and they're my favorite morning class so far. They've got a lot of energy and are really keen on learning. Though they yell and goof off a lot and are sometimes dificult to keep in line, but they are still pretty rockin!

Take this little Dude for example. His name is Hung Jun, and to be honest he's kind of one of my problem kids but I freaking love him. He just has so much personality to him, even at his age, and he's really adorable.

For Christmas I've done a few things to keep myself busy, I had a christmas sweater and yankee swap party on Tuesday, it was great time and I was "Lucky" enough to walk home with about a dozen cans of a no name Spam (Yay joke gifts. Pictured Below is myself and Tony, a fellow New Brunswicker as we show off our sweater love.

Christmas eve I went out to dinner with my co-workers and some friends, then came home for some canadian edition Cranium and hot chocolat, and then yesterday Paul (Our NEW new teacher,) and I went over to Fred and Emily's for a great Christmas feast (Stuffed chicken and potatoes and carrots) and that night we went down to the Speakeasy, this great little foreigner bar here, and met a whole whack of new people, one of them I've actually met before, at STU.

But more on that later, My wireless has been good to me so far and I'd like to get this posted before it dies on me. I love all of you guys and I miss you so much!

Till Next time!
