'Joshua Teacher'
Jennas replacement, Josh arrived late Thursday night and brought with him three bags the size of my one. They were full of audio equipment as he used to be a music teacher back in the states. Hopefully the experience will come in handy.
His first day at school was hilarious, the kids would just stand and stare or giggle and run off to tell their friends. My first day was a blur so I hardly remember the kids reactions to me. It was funny seeing them act all shy when they have no trouble with being noisy in my class.
Josh seems to be really nice and gets on with the students very well. Mr Kwak has definitely taken a shine to him as they studied at the same University in Colorado. He keeps giving high fives instead of handshakes and he has already invited him out for a drink, just the two of them. Rather him than me I couldn't think of anything worse. Josh however has seen right through Mr Kwak's 'cool' exterior even without me relaying all the encounters Jenna and I have had with him over the past eight months. Josh said, "he can seem a bit fake," got it in one.
I only have two weeks and two days left at the school and in Korea for that matter. My replacement also from the United States (Peter) arrives 30th June. I will have two days to get to know him before I jet off to meet the girls in Thailand. I’m so excited I have already started packing.
