My kiddies are a few of my favorite things..

I thought I should show you pictures of my favorite friends in Korea :) Here are just a few funny snapshots of my Kindergarteners, and older afternoon kids.  They are cute as pie!

 My school is located in a four story building, therefore we do not have access to an outdoor playground.  Instead the children play in what we call the "play gym".  It is like our own personal Chuckie Cheese!  It is probably the best part of the entire day for the kids.  There is nothing sweeter!

reading club!

Drama club cuties!

 Everyday the children are served a soup or porridge for breakfast at school, and a traditional korean lunch. Below is my class having lunch.  Yum yum!

Merry Christmas Y'all!

SANTACON!

As if a foreigner in Korea is not distracting enough, imagine hundreds of them dressed in santa suits.  It was like a giant santa flash mob in Hongdae a few weekends ago and a great way to kick off the holiday season! To add to the insanity we all took the subway and sang christmas carols, SO FUN!

Shopping and Street Food!

Korea has more shopping and street food than you could ever dream of.  A few weekends ago we went to Myeongdong and Namdaemun market.  Myeongdong has an H&M, forever 21, and much more.  Namdaemun market had tons of street vendors and market with all the kitschy Korean treasures you could ever want!

For 1,000 won, almost $1 dollar you could have one of these delicious egg and bread pockets.

Spicy beef broth with congealed cow blood is the perfect hangover cure.  I have yet to try it, I think I will stick to the pounding headache and sleep it off. 

Thanksgiving!

I wanted to share a few pictures from Thanksgiving.  We had a wonderful gathering at my co-workers house.  Amanda and Daryl were amazing hosts.  Pumpkin pie, stuffing, and mac and cheese were a few of the highlights :). No turkey, but some delicious chicken!

We all wrote what we were thankful for and read them out loud.  This was one of my favorites!

This year i'm thankful for my amazing opportunity here in Korea, and wonderful friends and family across the world :).
