Happy Anniversary
So as of today at 2am, I have now been in Korea for 1 year! Things have not always gone smoothly, but something must have gone right, as I have just signed on for a second year. It is interesting how you grow, evolve and develop while you aren't really looking... when I first arrived in Korea I was lost... looking for something... running away from somethings... but in this past year I have been able to find a lot of what I was looking for... I have... atleast for now... found a life. People here are relying on me... the children look so happy to see me... and they actually leave my class knowing something.... I know that for that small moment in time I have been able to make an impact on their lives... whether it be through a Robert Munsch story or the Moose song... each child knows that I care for them and am truly excited when I see progress. Though I doubt that I will be teaching English in Korea for the rest of my life, I feel like right now I am home... that I am able to make a difference.

Wow! You're staying on for another year? That's awesome! I was thinking about staying longer too, but unfortunately I gotta go back for my brother's wedding. I hope everything goes well for you here though! Congrats!
