Its true... Korea allows me my dreams and greatest ambitions! :-) Tomorrow I will be in a singing contest. Or... maybe I will be auditioning for a singing contest... we haven't quite figured it out yet. BUT My friend CareyAnn and I have signed up for a song contest where foreigners (like myself) sing a Korean song. I've been spending the last two weeks memorizing and practicing a Korean song. This is VERY fantastic because that was one of my goals! The contest has pushed me to practice at least a little bit of Korean.
It is possible that tomorrow evening the TV station (Arirang) will be sending a camera crew to tape my friend and I at a potluck that we are having... background footage I guess. I say "it is possible" because I can never be quite sure how and what gets lost in translation. If there is one thing I know for sure, it is that you MUST MUST must be flexible when living in Korea.
Things are going really well for me. I am loving my life here and I cannot believe that the semester is already over!!! Exams are next week. I'm really proud of my students and how far they have come from day one. *^^* I'll be teaching a summer school course in "American Culture" which I think will be VERY fun... I'm quite excited for this change. Also I'll only have 16 names to memorize instead of 140... There are so many more things to tell, but I need to get to bed. It is 12:30 on Friday evening and I have Korean lessons in the morning.
Anyang!
