Right now I am sitting in a cubicle at the Chung Dahm school in Daegu. I am surrounded by whoever's this stuff is and eating these butter waffle cookies they gave me to hold me over until my head instructor gets done teaching.
Training is done. They really took us straight until the last minute on whether or not we were going to pass. It was pretty intense. My palms were totally clammy. I did good, but Ta-wei, my reading instructor had alot to say about my final presentation. I had to ask him if i passed, and he mumbled yes. Everyone else thought I did great. I actually got named, most likely to become head instructor! WOO! Shake and bake!
Then began the leaving. I left all of the people I met at training. They were so great and cool. I am totally going to miss everyone. I was picked up by a call van and taken to the CTX train station. I did not hear english for the next 3 hours. The bullet train was super cool!
When I got to Daegu, I was greeted by a man who was holding up a piece of paper with my name on it. I felt like James Bond. He grabbed my bags and motioned me along to his call van. He drove around for about an hour, then dipped into the backstreets and alleys. It was so obvious he was lost. He actually called his daughter who speaks english just for her to tell me that he was lost and sorry. Then we picked up a girl who introduced herself by saying that she doesn't speak english. She said that my apartment will not be ready for 3 days... alright...? So she had the van take me to this "nice" motel called the Zen motel. This is where I will be residing for a couple days. Zen Motel. Daegu. Korea. Hit me up if you're in town. :)
