where has it gone?


it's been 2 weeks since school broke up and it really just felt like the holidays were starting. mostly because it's been a wet 2 weeks and the sun only came out this weekend. christopher left this morning, back to the land of the morning calm (really, this is what korea is called...where did it come from? before there were people?)


it's been a wonderful week having christopher in sydney mingling with my family and hanging out. something i have longed for for months. it's nice to finally walk the streets of sydney, to go see movies, to eat yummy food with the one you utterly love. it's bliss :) hehe...


there are a few months between now and when he is here for good, but for the time being i will totally savour the last week...

Perks of being a teacher...

One of the greatest perks of being a teacher is the school holidays although the fact that you have holidays the same time when all the kids are on holidays sometimes isn't much fun. but eh!

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! school's out for a fortnight and christopher arrives in sydney next saturday! yeah!!!!!!! so much to plan and organise! oh i can't wait!

really though, holidays for teachers are totally needed and necessary. those of you who have never been in a class of 28 screaming children who are all as needy as each other will never know the horrors (and of course most of the time joys) of teaching. to give our minds a rest and really that of the kids, the holidays are necessary...ah, whatever the reason for it, we just love it!
