Mood:

thursday was the seocheon boys highschool festival. a lot of people from donggang went, and people from many other highschools were there. its too bad my korean is so limited, it would have been nice to make a few friends my own age, but just the same. it was from 6-9. rose ri me and dany went together. everyone stares at us, but only a few come up and say hi. the acts were good, many singers. seocheon boys highschool has sooooooooo many people, not to metion all the people from the girls highshcool and the animation highschool. dany left after only an hour to catch a bus, then rose left cuz she had to get up early to go to seoul today (hope everything went smoothly for the visa interview!!!!!) but me bong and ri stayed, darea and hwansung were there too. 3 people came up and asked to take a picture of me, (hell yah!!!!) alright... sure why not? . bong introduced me to one of the guitarists, he was soooooo good! not at english though, so the conversation was stressed. 3 people gave me flowers, met several new people, all in all it was a good night.
the exchange students had our last day with hwyang, it was sad. they are the better students, and the nice teachers. we still have to go to kisan one more time, one last class with the nazi fifth grade teacher. but then we are done. at hwyang they had a farewell party with food and everything. one student gave us each a little present, it was a candle! what a sweetheart! i'll attach it to my rotary blazer!
presents ahhh! i still am shopping around for x-mas presents, dunno when i'll get those in the mail, maybe i'll send it after xmas to cut down on the high prices of mailing things during the holidays. it'll be a new years present instead! or a valentines package or something. martin luther king day? we'll see. so much is suppose to happen in december, our trip to seoul, our graduation from donggang, arrangements for a highschool, xmas, ugh.
i'm gonna miss going to donggang, and also, if we are all seperated, i wont see any of the exchange students!! or not very often! i'v become so close to them all, and as for the koreans, the really sad part is i probably wont ever see them again even if i were to come back to korea! i'm being abandoned! i didn't have enough time with these people, everthings just begun! it was just starting to get interensting, now i only have one month!! how did time slip by me like this!!! where was I?! i'm getting a year book for donggang, it was to expensive, but i did it anyways, its my xmas present from mom and dad.
still no snow, not even the slighest hint of snow. some mornings i dont even have to wear my heavy jacket. the afternoons are warm, and sunny all the time. i cant say i miss maine weather, maine winters are sooo depressing!! rose says seh misses wyoming winters, but they must be different. it snows much earlier there too. here though, it doesnt snow until after xmas, always. im fine with that!
k so got to go learn korean now
