Happy Korean Christmas Eve!

Let the couples holiday festivities begin. I don't even know what that means. Most likely lots of matching outfits.

We have to come into work at 2pm so we can finally open our Secret Santa gifts. Ha Most of us thought the plan was to do so at our branch Christmas dinner, but that didn't happen. Sucks for the people who lugged glasses of wine around town.

No exciting plans, 'cept to eat some American brunch and hang out with co-workers. Jen wants to do a KFC feast and possibly Christmas movies. hahaha

This week I'll have racked up 30 hours at work. One of my coworkers is out of town so my Monday night class was combined to another teacher's class since I only have 3 students, and I taught the vacationing teacher's class. I taught his other class tonight as well, sacrificing what should've been my half day. Though it turns out it's a good thing I did so because due to the rising tuition and decrease in enrollment (who knows why they thought raising tuition was a good idea), my Monday/Friday night class is being cut and permanently combined with the other, so I'll be down to 21 hours, although I will teach a workshop starting next week to attempt to make up for it.

Bummer since I love those kids, but the good news is I'll still be paid for those hours since it was in my contract. Or, so they say. We'll see come next paycheck. I'm not the only one losing classes because of the current enrollment trend, so I suppose I shouldn't feel as badly. Part of me is excited to have half days on Fridays for the rest of this term. But, I'm beginning to realize more about the business aspect of this company due to this and other recent decisions because of the lack of students.

Slight downer to the holiday. But on a happier note, I can't believe how many friends are getting engaged. Congrats to all of you who are!!! So exciting.
