はい! 大丈夫!

Fret not, I'm fine! The first day of work was hectic but fine. Apparently today was very busy and chaotic compared to most days. So, if most days are more tame than today, I can definitely handle this! The out going teacher is DJ, he is an emergency teacher since the one from before had to depart early. It's a shame he has to leave...he's so pretty to look at. Sighs. Oh well.

Today was a good time. I enjoyed chatting with the students and teaching. I think I'm really going to enjoy teaching. Tomorrow, however, I'm all on my own...it's going to be quite a trial just trying to figure out what comes next, much less teaching.

After work today, though, most of us went out to a restaurant right around the corner for some traditional Japanese food and...beer.

I'm learning that beer is a HUGE thing here. Everyone drinks beer, it's pretty funny. But tonight I ate whatever they gave me....I ate fish gut kimchi, horse meat (raw), and squid soup mash just to name a few things...

I had a great time though, it made me feel good to get to hang out with my coworkers outside of work, to let our hair down and just hang out.

Good times.

At any rate, I'm tired and it's time for bed. But tomorrow is payday! I think...and I don't have to be in until 1pm. Woot!

I'll post some pictures for you tomorrow morning.

I have to agree with Lynn, horse meat is a little too ummmmm, I don't know, pet-like for me, the same for cats and dogs. The other stuff though, sign me up!
