Happy Tofu Day!

Happy Korean Independence Day! Or Memorial Day, or something. I had the day off, but after buying groceries and spending lavishly at a falafel place I was left with $5.00 a day until Friday, which I think is only slightly more than what a child could live off of in India through Save the Children's sponsorship. This plus bad weather has left me pretty much unable to do anything except enjoy the bounty of the internet.

I did leave my apartment to get a week's worth of groceries, and I'm really glad I did because it was tofu day at Home Plus! They had out different kinds of tofu with sauces at every free sample stand. It was delicious. I wish every day was tofu day. *Sigh*.

These 3-day weekends are really not as fun as I thought they would be. The third day just feels kind of extraneous; it's boring unless you have money to do fun things. I'm actually looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. It's a new school year in Korea, and I have a new class. I plan to spend the evening re-reading The First Days of School, and extracting the very limited advice that applies to teaching pre-schoolers who know literally no English. What am I getting myself into?
