back to school

Wooo! Alright, I'm in Seoul!

The flight out from LAX to Seoul felt long. 13hrs is pretty normal fare for going back and forth the Philippines growing up, but it seems the older I get the longer flights feel. Having headache inducing pressure in my sinuses didn't help. I'm not complaining. We landed safe and sound rather than in a horrible watery wreck. Definitely not complaining. (c:

The time difference of when I landed meant 6pm here... which is 2am in LA. I haven't felt very stretched by the time yet, but today.. with all it's new experiences, learning, kids happily yelling, etc.. yeah.. I think I'm ok to be tired. The school is really neat, and functioning at maximum building capacity.

Things of interest.. everyone here drives by GPS guidance. Also, programmed into their GPSs is the "awareness" of speed cameras. So the GPS will warn the driver when they're approaching speed cameras. Hm! I got put up last night (and tonight) in the school's principal's house. He's a very kind man, and has a nice family. We stayed up until 11pm talking at the table and drinking tea. (11pm.. 7am LA time, heh).

I've taken some pictures, but they'll have to wait. I'm using one of the computers at the school. I think tomorrow I'll have my own apartment and am planning on having Ryanlynn and Erik (church group friends) stop through on Saturday. More news to follow in a while.

P.S. It's warm-ish, rains, and is super lush.
P.S.S. Trash.. is serious business.
