Success!

Mom and Dad... you guys can stop worrying. Everything worked out very well with our jobs. I'm still employed.

I talked to Nicole and suggested the solution of merging the two similar classes. She was very happy and said it was a "brilliant" idea. She said normally the two types of classes I was suggesting would never be combined, but given the reasons I provided, and as long as it would make me happy, she'd do it.

Now we're headed off to a weekend-long retreat with our school. The goal is to get the foreign staff and Korean staff communicating more. I think there are tons of team-building activities and we're even going paint-balling. (I have to admit, I'm a little worried about that part.)

Anyway, it should be a good time and we'll be sure to take a lot of pictures!

Kim,

Glad to hear that your proposal was accepted. Could you let us know what two classes will now be combined and what is the age level of your new class?? I hope your weekend will be a fun time for both of you.

kim, what a relief to know that you are still gainfully employed! Hope that your week-end spent trying to build communication skills between the Korean faculty and the "foreigners" proves successful. Only four more days until Mark's folks arrive. I know you have got to be excited. Nancy is here from FL and wishes you and Mark the best. Love you both!

Kim,

Can you guess that "Anonymous" is really your Mom???

It's been so long since I've been on your blog I didn't know about this employment scare (or work overload scare!) I'm glad your shining knight appeared and rescued you! I love the appearance of the Cardinal tee shirts -- guess you're aware of all the baseball hoopla currently engaging our fair city!
