Puppies and Teaching! (March 14, 2011)

Today was a big day. And I will explain why very soon. Before I do, I would like to announce that Justin and I added to our family this weekend by purchasing a little black and white french bulldog puppy. His name is Gorbachev (they have matching splotches on their heads) and he is absolutely wonderful. We are skeptical as to whether or not he is really a frenchie, but we will know for sure when he gets a little bigger. For some reason the pet store decided to sell us the puppy when he was maybe four weeks old, so he is very high maintenance but adorable. Also at this point boston terriers and frenchies are almost identical. So we will see.

The other big news is earlier this evening I taught my first class. Honestly I kind of feel like I totally bombed it. I was super nervous because I taught in front of the owner of the school and it was a class of about 30-40 students. I think I probably did OK, but I was done with my lecture too early and it felt kind of awkward toward the end. But I did get them to interact with me a little which is apparently a miracle when it comes to Korean students and their American teachers. I eagerly await to hear what the owner thinks of my class but I am not sure if he will tell me or not. I hope he does because I am going crazy. Fingers crossed and prayers said that this leads to a job! We shall see :)
