I don't even drink. . . .

and I am worn out from the weekend.  At least I'm not so sore now.  Even my arms were hurting today from that basketball that I played on Saturday. I seriously hope to fall asleep really soon.  It's nice that even the boss man noticed I was tired, when he asked "are you tired"?.  He and his wife decided I need to have a private class one time a week with each of his kids.  Well, the oldest daughter is just a brat, who has no manners whatsoever. The younger daughter isn't so bad at times, but still doesn't care to listen to me very much.  Their son isn't too bad, he's just not all that bright.  I wouldn't claim that the girls are very smart either though.

At least their father is a nice man though.  Work has gotten interesting.  I've been bribing the little ones with stickers so they'll behave much better, and it's paying off really well.  I watched Beth, a kid that can hardly sit still, yank a boy by the hair and put him in tears today, which was kind of shocking to see in a way.  I didn't want to discipline her at all just out of shock from seeing her do such a thing.

Yesterday, I did something I probably shouldn't have done.  I ran for 75 minutes.  Sure, it wasn't a bad idea, but the fact that I played so much basketball (which I hardly ever do) the day before for four hours, definitely didn't make the run much easier.  I did discover Gonju Health Land today though.  That's where the main bathhouse, spa, sauna, and health club are in the area.  It was pretty nice, and it was the first time I had paid money to use a bathhouse in a long time.  I lost a few pounds just sweating the 185 degree sauna.

I have decided I am going to test out my Korean skills literally.  There's a basic aptitude test in July, and then maybe early next year, I'll test out to see just how proficient I am.  I seemed to be able to answer questions on both the low level test, and the high level test with ease today.  I'll have to put in some hours, but I'm pretty confident that I can get a pretty good score on the first test.

                                              someone spelled my name wrong in Korean!!

                                              Beth darting out the door, but Isabelle is all about a photo op.
As for now, I'm gonna depart, and fall asleep.  I'll leave some pictures of the little ones.
