It's heating up...

Wow, lots has happened since I last wrote. The season has gone from spring to summer and every second spent inside my classroom on a nice day feels like torture. Except for the little cuties that make my day of course. And, the last few weekends have been absolutely gorgeous. So what's been happening? I know my time in Korea is coming to a close so I've been thinking about what to do before I leave. I have quite a lot on my list, I hope to get at least some of them done! One thing I was always curious about was going to a military base, since I live so close to the Osan Air Base here. So a few weeks ago we decided to go bowling. I definitely felt like I was back in the states! I ate horrible food (pizza, jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks, and a Caesar salad), drank Miller light for $1.50 and bowled for about the same.
The next night was my friend's birthday and we all went to a park and had a great night! (Sorry, no pics...)

Then, that weekend there was an event called RocKorea, an 18 hour concert that featured many Korean and expat musicians, mostly classic rock cover bands. I found out about a volunteer opportunity to help raise money for my friend's rugby team. By helping to serve beer at the festival we would be able to get in free, get a t-shirt, and drink all of the delicious beers provided by Craftworks we wanted! We had an amazing time serving and enjoying beer, meeting new people, listening to music, and staying up (almost) all night. I finally used that tent I bought at Home Plus for 15,000 won ($15 USD) last year and set the entire thing up on my own!

That's it for now! More soon.....
