Looks like Santa could still find me... even though I moved from SC to Indiana to Korea over the last 6 months. Here is a picture of my loot from students and a few cards from other teachers. A couple of my students made me very nice cards - and then I had the notes inside translated, because they wrote in Korean. Ha. The chips and candy pictured here were in the large "plastic stocking bag" - a gift from one class to me. This is sort of a big deal, because Koreans don't really have Christmas. It is a bit like a quiet, subtle "valentine's-type" holiday - more for couples. People simply don't send cards or give gifts.
Merry Christmas to me! Christmas Eve was a fun day - I had to work normal hours, but we had out Christmas party at school (which was a program - good times, but also a ton of work) and then we had smaller parties, as well. Pizza and chips and candy ... yum yum.
Hi, Hannah from Indiana! Great adventures, and thank God you had a wonderful Advent and Christmas activities- so how did it look from up high over Waikiki beach? Great girl, and God loves you. Take care, and happy teaching in Gwangju...
