So much for the Philippines

The tentative trip to the Philippines has fallen threw due to ticket prices being 730,000 won. Now I'm looking at traveling around Korea and taking a quick trip to Japan by ferry when I reach Busan. I just have to work out where to stay. I'm thinking about braving the Couch Surfing experience and staying at temples, but I have to do more research. Either way, I'm excited for a week off! My goal: finish the lesson plans before the break.

This morning the wind and rain from a typhoon woke me up. The wind coming in through my vents and the open part of the building sounded like a tea kettle, angry thumping and a vibrating phone. Traffic was pretty bad, but I made it to work on time (since I don't have a morning class on Thursdays, start time's a little more flexible). Don't worry, I'm not in the middle of a storm, just getting lots of wind and rain from being on the edge of it.

I slept in, so I didn't get my 30 Day Shred workout in before school, but I made a tasty tofu scramble for lunch and a smoothie for breakfast. Good start to the day and there is still time to throw in that 20 minutes of working out.

I'm not going to continue with my private tutoring, I'm apparently not being paid much for it and I really don't have the time. In addition to it being grounds for deportation if any official folks find out. I just don't want to risk it. The kids are great and the parents are nice, but I could be practicing violin in that time.
