When Children Drive You To Drink

We finished our first complete week teaching at Happy Suwon Binglish Village- Woo hoo! Friday was a big day as each teacher was working with a group of kids to put on a play- no easy feat in a second language- and then we had a graduation ceremony for them. This was my group of angels:

They did a really good job with "Mud Puddle", and were rewarded with one Canadian penny each!

After work I went to Bennigan's with Mel, Jo and Sarah. I really only wanted to eat there because it's Butters' favorite restaraunt on South Park. Well, Butters has good taste! There was a kick ass salad bar and free ice cream, so it passed the Shawn test.

Then we went to Beer & Joy, because with beer always comes joy...

We ordered some "bear"...

Which came in a Keg!!! It was 22,000 won for 6 people and I'm pretty sure we got about 20 glasses out of the barrel. Sweet! One of the most charming aspects of Beer & Joy was the table decoram. You know how some restaraunts will use old ads or newspaper articles to decorate? Well, the newspaper used to decorate our table was from the New York Times issue printed on September 11th, 2001! Nice, very uplifting.

Last night we went to Jo's apartment for a festive get-together. It's pretty convenient to go to a party that's just down the hall because you don't have to put your shoes on. Last night we got our first snow of the year (that didn't disolve upon touching the ground), so we went outside and made a snowman. Kudos to Mel for randomly having a carrot!

I think she'd get along well with our maggoty jack-o-latern, don't you?
