Today was such a GOOD day! The song I had in my head pretty much all day, beginning this morning was Great is Thy Faithfulness...
I was on time (actually early) to work today and ended up not really having to teach because students had to take a listening test. I was able to begin the first class of teaching the Korean teachers English. I wish they weren't so shy about speaking English.
I met the nicest lady on the bus today. She is Korean and she speaks wonderful English. She taught me some new words and basic phrases and she even directed me to the Hongcheon Educational Office where I had to go today for Korean lessons. As I continued looking for the place, I came across a few high school boys. "HI!!" They were excited (I guess) to see an American. I spoke and then asked them about the place I was going. One then said, "Oh I know where it is! Follow me!" Three of them then proceeded to take me to the building where I needed to go. They were sweet boys.
I also got a NEW washing machine! I was too happy abou that. It's cute...pink...of course! The old one was broken...very broken! It was filling with water even when it was unplugged! Now, all I have to do is learn to read Korean!
Each day brings some kind of new adventure. I am actually starting to be more at ease. Although I miss America; my family, my friends, and my dear Ivory, I STILL know that I will be ok. I don't have any complaints, only gratitude and thankfulness. Regardless--good, bad, or ugly, I will always be so full of thanks with a song on my heart.
