A lazy month and not much to say.

Friday, January 11th, 2008

These days, Korean students are in the middle of 겨울방학 (winter vacation) so things are pretty quiet around the orphanage.  Kids go home (remember that some of them still have parents) and a few are away on some sort of school trip.  I also haven’t been around there as often as I usually am since my own schedule is a bit different right now.

It must be pretty boring for them.  Since they aren’t in school, they stay home all day.  It’s too cold/dangerous to play outside, so they are stuck watching TV, or maybe going to the computer lab.  For many of them, that is their day!

I’m sorry there isn’t much else to report.  I hope to get a new video made with some of them this week, and have it up for the next post.  I could get them to make a video that would tie into one of the recent KClass lessons.  Anything in particular you’d like the kids to help you with?  Let me know!
