Drums!

As promised, here we are, drumming last Friday.

This is my favourite co-teacher. He's like a parent with the students: has super high expectations, then loves them like mad. He's wicked.




This man always says, "Good morning!" to me as we trudge up the hill to school. Sounds pretty insignificant, but when I hear only "Annyong Assayo" (spelled somewhat phonetically here: it means "hello" in Korean), it's nice to hear my native tongue in the morn. He was the SWEETEST. Check out that headband! He removed it before anymore pictures could be taken of it. Adorable.



Yours truly, looking like a dweeb. That was part of the uniform: a backwards hat and glasses. Except no one else did it. I'm a tard.



This is another teacher in my office. He doesn't teach English, but rivals the abilities of most of the teachers. Sigh.



After the performance was over, there was a game of trivia with the kids. They were so happy to be on stage with us. Obviously.



More kids. These are playing Rock Paper Scissors to determine who went first. Or in Korea, something like, "cow (as in the animal)-y, bow (as in take a bow)-y, bo (as in Jackson)!"



Black Dress:



This is Mrs. Lim's best friend. She's adorable. After the drumming and the trivia were over, we were instructed to "just dance". Sure. She was givin' er and I was loving her.



Quite possibly the worst picture ever of me. But there you have it: I was over it and still in the spirit. With nearly two thousand little faces staring at you, what else is there to do but close your eyes and just sway a little? Oh brother.



Did that brighten your day a bit?
It sure did mine.

Happy Friday!
