Teacher... why are you....

Been a bit busy, but wanted to tell you what happened yesterday during my Phonics class with Bravo.
A Korean teacher came in and took my CD player that I was planning on using, so I had to hunt down another player while my kids were left alone in the classroom... with these kids, once they are seated nicely they should never be left! hahah They are bonkers! Well I ran into the neighbouring class, no luck, so I went to the next one. It was my friend Bryony's class. One her students upon seeing me called out, "Teacher, why are you so small?" Hahaha... even here in Korea I am known as the small teacher. The whole class laughed at me.
I get back to my own classroom and feel a little better because Deborah and Ellie run up to me (because of course I had to leave the class unattended and everyone was out of their chairs) and said "Teacher Sherry (which they said like Shelley), you are BEAUTIFUL!" They tell me this all the time! :)

Julie in my buttercup class has also been commenting on my warobe more... everyday she likes something else... and gets me to draw it on the board when I draw me as a stick person after we discuss the weather... (I draw me to show my feelings with the weather, since we are learning about feelings! haha) Steph Power... she lovessss when I wear the bracelt you gave me.. and Jill Saunders.. she also loves our matching braclet! haha :)

I feel like there is a lot more for me to post, but I don't have much time... I have my long afternoon stretch coming up... and I need to make sure I can explain percentages to my older crowd. If you know me at all... I can't even add simple math in my head... this should be fun... at least I am going in prepared!! ughh!! Oh well.. I can do it... I have all my notes with whatever what if question they ask already answered! And I have been told Korean children are amazing at math anyways!

buttt.. yayyyy!!! It is FRIDAAYY!!!! :) (TGIF!!! BIG TIME!!) Last night was the first time I ever thought... ohhhh I hate KOREA! haha I don't actually.. but I have a cold and the air conditioning makes my throat worse, so I turned it off... and couldn't sleep with the humidty.... opened the windows and the mosquitos killed me... then I had really weird dreams.. and ughh.. no sleep at all!! Halls are saving my life right now... and I am almost out of them. I worry that this isn't actually a cold, but my body acting out the the air quality rather.
