I don't have internet in my apartment yet so I haven't been able to keep up with posts. I'm in a coffee shop now and this is actually a post from 2 days ago that didn't work before:

So yesterday I sat in on a full day of classes. I got to meet all of my students who were still as cute as they were the day before. They stare a lot because they haven't seen many westerners. One boy told me I have a small head.

Before yesterday I had only been on one main road near my neighborhood because I didn't want to get lost, but my co-worker Jeanette who is from South Africa took me to some new places that were very easy to find. I'm feeling more and more comfortable here.

Each time I order coffee I have to ask for milk because they don't use milk with coffee... that would just be a latte. They don't get it. They think I'm ordering coffee with a glass of milk. So I just get a glass of milk with my coffee.

My boss Jason and his wife Jaho (pronounced like JWOW but JHOW) took me to get Korean food the day before yesterday. It was so freakin' hot. I think the potato will be my best friend here in South Korea. Out of all the dishes on the table the little potato balls were my favorite. It really isn't hard to find western food though. The grocery store has strange stuff that I've never seen but they have a lot of food that you can find in American grocery stores like Italian pasta and tomato sauce. To get sliced bread and cheese you have to go to the super grocery store.

There are many other things to write about but I will save it for another day when I have more time.
