I couldn't really think of a title for this blog post so I just decided not to put one at all. Hope you don't mind. ;)

This last week has stayed exciting, as usual. I had a few tests that I gave to two classes last week and most of them did well. My RB class, which always gives me a lot of grief(the boys, anyway) actually did better than I expected them, too. I only had three students who failed their tests out of about 11, I think.

Monday, though, they were all mad at me because I promised them a snack(fish-shaped dough filled with red bean sauce) if they got a score about 80%. When I went to buy it, though, the lady was not there and she wasn't there yesterday either. They've been bugging me since then about buying them something so I guess I'll give them some money to buy a snack today since I'm sure they haven't forgotten(since I got a text message from one of them last night :P ).

I wasn't feeling very well Monday, either. At 3 am, Monday morning, I nearly threw up cause I felt so bad. I'm guessing it was probably a combination of things. When I came back to Osan from church, I rode with 2 friends and we went to a restaurant for Sam-gyup-sal, which is slices of pork that you eat with onions in sauce, kimchi, rice and anything else you want to add to it. Most people eat it wrapped in lettuce with a sauce or a few other toppings.

The food was delicious but I had a bit of a problem with how much we ate. Between the three of us, we managed to eat through 1600 grams of pork, rice, soup, and four bottles of soda. I've never felt so stuffed in my life. I have no idea why they ordered so much, but hey, they're Koreans. :P We also managed to add up a nice bill of $20 a piece for our meal. It was fun, though, hanging out and eating with a couple guys.

It's getting much cooler here, though I still haven't really had to turn on the heat in my apartment. Started wearing long sleeves and light jackets, though. Otherwise, Korea is staying wonderful, despite recent threats from the North saying they could reduce the South to rubble and the South warning about pre-emptive strikes on suspected nuclear facilities in the North. It's never a good thing when you have brethren with two starkly opposing viewpoints, is it? lol
Oh well, I don't imagine the North is quite as powerful as they would like us to think. One positive thing, though, Kim Jong-il finally realized he has some problems- he is now seeing a brain surgeon. :D
