happy teachers day!

deery-lou.
today was teacher's day. of course that doesn't mean we get the day off. instead the children come to school bearing gifts. well…at least some of them do. i decided to give out bad points to all those students who didn't give me a present. don't they realize this is the time to brib their teacher with lavious gifts. obviously not. i will how to instruct them for future teacher's days. so here's a run down of some the gifts:

1. milky ginsing drink
2. rice cakes
3. two cakes
4. 5 pairs of socks
5. a bag of assorted candies
6. a box of belgian candies
7. an orange scent plastic rose
8. a letter
9. a ceramic apple toothpick holder [at least i think it is]

i'm going to share number 8 [the letter] with you kind folks.

HAPPY Teacher's day!

thats a whole lot of thanks in there. now if only i can get them to write a reader-friendlly letter i'll be in business. gotta love it though. when henry came to class he apologized for not having a present. he's too much sometimes.

we had a mini pizza party in taekwondo. that was cool. then my kwanjangnim gave me this onion drink which is suppose to be good for your health. everyone was saying how good it was. they couldn't fool me. i watched sahbumnim's face as he tried to drink it down. when in korea…it was like drinking cold onion soup with a weird aftertaste. don't think i'll be going back for more. i gave both my kwanjangnim and sahbumnim a small present. tonight i'm going to make them each a cd. hehe. i'm sure they are going to hate my music but what the hell, right.

be fresh. be happy. be well…
