Konglish

I seriously think my English speaking is deteriorating being here. I talk so much Konglish daily, trying to explain where I want to go or what I want, half in English, half in broken-Korean. I have definitely noticed myself falling over my words, mumbling in-coherently or using excessive body/sign language during normal conversations to native English speakers. Save me from my Korean madness. Even though I have my 'I hate Korea' days now and then, I really feel like I've accepted Korean life, not that I plan on staying here any longer than I have to, but it does have it's perks. One of them is NOT the exchange rate, the Americans think they get skrewed... I get completely fecked on the change over to Euro!!! Better just save my Korean Won so and change it over to some sweet currency that has an equal or better rate of exchange like ummm..... the Australian Dollar? That means that maybe I'd have to go there on my NEXT adventure right? Sounds like a good plan to me!!

So all my Elementary Classes had their final speaking and writing tests last week for the Winter semester. One of the Korean teachers managed to grab a few photos of me & them in action. haha!

I'm seriously considering going back to basics and dying my hair back brown while I'm in Asia, I have admitted defeat by Asian highlights. At the rate they keep bleaching me, my hair shall fall out. They do a sketchy job!
