Kids say the darndest things.......Tomorrow when the war began

Ok.
Today was ground zero..... today was when the fat lady opened her stupid mouth.....and not just her........ a big ass load of loud mouthed Korean kids did so at the same time too...

So i get up today... after sleeping WAAAAAAAAAY too late (the upside of this is that i'm like TOTALLY ready to watch the Satc Movie :P hahahaha) get up and make my (increasingly.. or so i think) fat ass some breakfast which consisted of a fried egg and some fried spam..... (yeah i know.. i could totally be in UK with the amount of fat there) HOWEVER!!!

i made it in a non stick pan. ;)
*DOINK*
Either way i get myself all sorted... oh wait.. no i don't!!!

here's the story.


I've got this weird switch thingy which i press for either "thermo"(stat) or "hot water" now, seeing as i've yet to see any kinda of visible result in the thermostat no matter what i set i figured that it'd be much more practical to just have a constant supply of hot water ... right?
WRONG!!
i left the thing on all night and got up this morning expecting to need burn cream after my shower... right?
WRONG!!!
i let the damn pipes run for AGES (not eseemingly ages but ACTUAL ages) and if you can believe it.. the water got colder.... -.- so i settled for qiping myself down *sighs*

okay so anyway i got myself a bunch of books and headed off for my first day at work. quite a nice walk actually about 20 mins.... up hill
then down. :P
so i get there no worries, head upstairs to the reception and i walk in looking kinda lost and the recptionsist sees me and says "ahhh, you must be Bevan" so i head in and get shown to my desk etc etc.
get the whole program explained to me.... and guess what?
no time to be gentle with me...
what does that mean?
it means that today on my first day i had a class every period except 1... 2 actually.
meaning that i had 7 periods today, girls you're bitching about 1 period a month? well i just had 7 in a day.... and almost bleeding from every one of them :P

7 different groups of kids, first one was lil lil LIL kiddies... the "Genki" group.... 2 lil girls and a boy. they were about... 6? or near there..
one of the girls just wouldn't shut up and wouldn't stop fidgeting,
the other girl was cute as a button and was so quiet... but also fidgetted.
the boy? this kid was like a genius... i said something and he got it.. it was scary... and as a bonus he didn't fidget make noise or anything.... he just sat there... listening and watching the girls, i love this kid already.

next class... i had 3 kids again... these kids were a bit older.... jack, justin and catrina (or something like that)
these guys are all pretty good value, all pretty fun, just played this weird version of snakes and ladders.

next... class of 5 if i remember correctly... 3 girls (one queen bee of some sort.. and her 2 , thoroughly beaten minions) and 2 guys (fatty and noisey.... in fact.. i might just start calling them that :P)
this is how i put it...
queen bee is a beater.. she hits everybody...
minion 1 is a screamer... i honestly thought she burst my ear drum when she let one loose..
minion 2 is not too bad... she's a translator.. her english is pretty good so i forgive a lot.

fatty is your typically abused and bullied kid.. the one that laughs at a joke that he finds funny.. and is then emotionally beaten up. he made a couple of calls and the kids just gave him the "pfft you suck" look and then just started rubbing their arms saying "*i thought it was otsu... but i dunno now seeing as chu'un means cold and otsu doesn't exits :S * " meaning COLD COLD"
i dunno.. it's their thing.... i don't say nuffin'
Noisey is like a wannabe "suck up and pretend 'teacher' is a friend" type so he points at the girls and says "crazy girls" and points at fatty and says "pabo" meaning stupid :P hehehe i lol'd on the inside:P that's fine by me.. except that to get over the sounds of QB beating her minions into submission he has to yell..... directly into my ear.

right....had .. about 3 other classes... but no1 really worth mentioning at this point.

so
something i've noticed witht the kids so far......
1/ they all think i'm korean... almost without fail.. each class asked if i can speak korean and were like "ooooh...." when i said no.
2/ they all said "really??!?!?!" when i said i'm chinese...... also almost without fail...
3 this one got the biggest oooh's .. "do you have a girlfriend?"
"yes"
boys and girls: "OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

*-.-"

so the day finished (finally) as days do, and i stuck around finishing up my lesson plans (which i have to submit to the academic advisor) so i finish up and head home.. hoping to have something to eat on my way to smokey hole tonight.
on my way i managed to pick up some bread !!!!! :) so happy
so real breakky... with spam and egg tomorrow :P


meet up with two of the yank teachers one who lives on my way home ( tho after the school moves in july i'll be closer to the school .... *WIN*) and they gave me some tips about handling the kiddes (thank god). after that i sign on to the gym
alright.. so let's just picture this.

2 white yanks... walking into a gym with me (asian guy who looks korean) so the gym guy must think "oh yeah... two new white guys korea guide"....
Evan starts talking to the gym guy asking how much membership is... gym guys tell him but Even explains it's for me... so gym guy starts talking to me cept i just stand there looking ... confused.
situation in a nutshell... white guys between two asians guys... acting as a translator :P
2 wongs don't make a white
but a wong and a song might need a white to translate :p

So i walk away with a membership and the guy gives it to me right awy.. but i say i'll come back tomorrow.. so he's nice enought to start it from tomorrow... nice guy.

So i made almost all the way home.. walked past an old aunty and looked at the veggies she was selling... and she decideed that i simply MUST buy some :P and proceed to walk with my down the street until i said "no" ... and she looks puzzled again... i said "no thanks" and then she got the "huh?" look again and left me alone.

now i finally made it to a restaurant with food.. and more importantly a menu with pictures!! so i finally ordered out by myself.!!


and now i'm in smokey hole once again... praying that my internet gets connected soon
i'm sure i had more to write about... cept i had to take a dump while writing this so whatever i wanted to write must've been shit anyway
BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH :P
like that ?

darling where's you lame stamp?
