... com to look for jobs because that is where most schools advertise. it is well known within korea . i don’t recommend going with a recruiter. if you can talk with the school directly to find the job that is best. but if it is getting close to the time you want to leave, then talk to a recruiter and they will find you a job right away. it is to your and your future employers advantage to not go through a recruiter. the recruiter takes 1 ...

... fools (myself, Daniel [Jae Ho] and Flora [Kkot Nim]) continuously joked around and made sure that everyone knew that we were, in fact, the best. <br><br>The highlight of the day was when I ran into one of my students, who was shocked to see that I did, in fact, have a life outside of teaching. A teacher being a real person!? Surely you jest.<br><br>

Today Mike, Hank, and I took a little trip outside of town to the Daejeon Graveyard and to some of the mountains near town. Daejeon is located in a valley. It's surrounded on all four sides by mountains which look more like large hills to me, but I'll take what I can get. It was pretty hot so little Hankers had a pretty rough time getting around. He's really only worthwhile in weather above 65 and below 75. Little buddy struggled but it was fun.

· Jochiwon, South Korea · GMT +8:00 hours · Days until we finish camp - 19 · Days until we leave Korea - 24 Anomalousness It feels strange to have time off and I don't really know what to do. I feel like I should be doing something, something Camp Korea (CK) related. Anything CK related. But I'm resisting. There is plenty I could be doing, but I'm not going to worry about that right now ...

· Jochiwon, South Korea · GMT +8:00 hours · Days until we finish camp - 32 · Days until we leave Korea - 37 The crude countdown timer you see above (yep, that's what those two lines are, okay?) will be an ever present feature capping the rest of the entries we file from Korea. I realise it may not look good that I'm counting down the days we have left in camp, or Korea in general, but I wouldn't read too much into it - it's just ...

... spare few seconds I had off from photocopying one camp orientiation handout after another. Oh, that rydmick clicking of pages filing through the potocopier is driving me nuts. Day 135 & 136 Observations (December 26th & 27th 2007) · Ominous Maybe this wasn't a good idea after all. The first two teachers arrived today and quickly proclaimed that they don't envy us being head teachers. Umm. · Prepare to cringe We're bad, oh so ...

... per dorm-room, working out of a pool of rooms we have at our disposal. Trying to judge if Tom would be a better suited roommate for either Dick or Harry based on their ages, nationality, experience etc was bad enough, but getting requests from teachers to, for example, room alone due to a snoring problem made things a tad more interesting. Day 131 Observations (Saturday, December 22nd 2007) · God bless snooze We hate our alarm clock once again. Yep, after a 3 ...

... no rules and that is what works best. Simply think about your safety and keep driving full on ahead. This is how the country is motivated. Progress is the only focus of everything. The goal is to accomplish everything and don't think about the consequences behind or to the sides of you.
