As the title suggests, just a quick update for the week before I go to bed.
Tomorrow marks my two month anniversary. Again, hard to believe I've been here 2 months already. But clearly it has been because bills are coming in. Yeahhh I feel like a grown up being able to pay for them all by myself. My first bill was for gas it was for about $4. FOUR DOLLARS! Completely unheard of when I was in charge of the gas bills for the SEA house. The only time it was anywhere near that low was for this past May when we were all gone for the most part after graduation / end of school.
Tomorrow I also have my first parent-teacher conferences. The branch is trying this out for the first time in a few years as a way to communicate more with parents as more students are leaving across the company. Apparently even the economy in Korea is beginning to slow, and since many students go to multiple academies, sometimes you gotta cut the budget. Not sure how many parents I'll see, but they'll most likely be mothers, and I'll need a translator. Hopefully some of the parents I really need to talk to will come. Some kids have been slacking off on their work and it's affecting their grades. I would hate to make them repeat the level just because they don't do their homework and/or show little concern for their progress.
