Random Thoughts

Here are some random thoughts. I'm too brain dead to come up with any sort of cool topical segway. Bare with me.

1. Today was hectic. I taught seven classes back to back and didn't murder anyone. This deserves a pat on the back right? I have no idea how someone could teach for fifty years and not end up spending retirement banging their heads against the walls of a rubber room. I've said it before and I'll say it again, teaching=a huge challenge.

2.Thank god for my new bike. I come home and take out my frustrations on the roads and sidewalks of Incheon Korea. And how awesome is my new bike? It only cost forty Canadian dollars and it's so wonderfully, perfectly suited to me. That vintage frame melts my heart everytime I see it.

3. This is not a reasonable temperture. It's plus thirty five degrees today. I'm sitting at my desk at work encircled by pools of my own sweat. This isn't pleasant for anyone.

4. I love Paris Baguette. It's a bakery chain in Korea and is the only place that sells decent cookies. I gorged on three as a reward for not killing anyone today. Here's hoping this young fast metabloism holds out.

5. The weekend is coming. I'm taking my friend's daughter to the zoo on Saturday. I'm kind of excited, I never get to spoil kids rotten. Saturday night all of the ESL teachers are going to a professional soccer game, I'm on the fence, pro-sports always seem a little deathly dull to me. Tonight(Friday) is french toast night at my house. Weekends are always better.

6. I am sick of squid and seaweed soup. My school's serves this almost everyday and it smells like feet. It's rude to say no to any dish that's been offered, so sadly, feet soup is a part of my daily diet.
