This is my school address, but send any mail to here. Apparently if I gave you my own address I may never see it!
I just got back from lunch. It was great! :) I am lovvvving the food here! :)
Oh, one more interesting thing, everymorning I wake up to a pick up truck driving up and down my street selling fruit and annoucing it from the speakers... it is so weird to wake up to talking that I can't understand not even a little bit!
I tried to learn how to say hello, but I forget the prouncation all the time! Heather is trying to teach me. I think we may just start taking flash cards for a little while until things become easier!
I had to take a cab from Heather's house since the subway was closed, and I didn't know how to tell him where I lived, so I pointed to the closest subway station on the map. He spoke a little broken English, and asked me about music. He said he liked Metallica, I said my friend Gavin would be happy to hear that! :) However, he also played me songs that came from the Wedding Singer soundtrack.
Ohhhh.. one funny thing I saw at the subway. Apparently plastic suugery is common here, and small faces are seen as beautiful. A sign at the subway read: Small face, beautiful breasts!
Well, back to work!
Send me mail! :)

Hey Sherry!
great to hear that you are teaching English in Korea. (your mom sent me the link to your blog and I just read up to this entry, which explains why I am only now commenting)
I had heard about that possibility but never knew anyone who had done it. And I love the idea of a blog to recount your experiences. I think I might do the same for our travels here in Belgium...
anyway, I'm very happy for you - this will be a life changing experience for you, I am sure. Enjoy it to the max. I'll be following your exploits.
Hey Sherry baby. Glad to see that you are settling in so easily. I will start looking around for things to send that are uniquely Canadian and Sherry. Can anybody say Kraft Dinner??
I'm very happy that you are doing well! I should send you some pictures of the girls. I'm sure Bridget would want to draw you a picture or write you a letter. Who knows maybe one of your kidlets would want to write her... how cool would that be? The children sound really sweet. Kindgergarden is such a fun grade to teach and one that you are idealy suited for.
Send us some pictures of Korea, so I can show Bridget. I hope that you are taking pictures of her bear... she thinks thats just the bee's knees :)
