What next?

I'm sitting here in my "office hours" at school. This is the extremely useless time where us foreign teachers have to sit in a cage down in the front office so they can show us off like monkeys at a zoo. Well, in the two and half hours we might get one or two placement tests (where we have to look at a person's placement test score and chat with them to determine the level they should start at), but usually I don't even get one. Mostly we just play on the internet or prepare for whatever our next class is that we have to teach.

I've grown to despise the weekend, Sunday in particular. The weekend is our busiest time, and Sunday happens to be my crap day. I have a morning class that I come in to prepare for at 8:30, then I almost always get scheduled for an activity class and/or office hours after that. I get out of office hours at 4:30 and then my night class starts at 6:10. So, in the whole day I get to go home for like an hour and half or less to chill. And I get out at 9pm. So pretty much go go go from 8:30am to 9pm. Ugh...

I've been contemplating a lot what I'm going to do when I come home in May. I'm freaking out a lot about coming home to what I hear is the highest unemployment in the country and trying to find a job. I will probably have to come home for a few months and then run away somewhere else so that I can afford to pay my bills. I've been thinking a lot about Korea. I've heard that I could pay over a thousand dollars a month towards my loans and still have a lot left to live on. That would be awesome. But the question is, will I be ready to go off for a whole year again after being gone for 8 months? It's crazy how time has flown, and now I'm at the point where I have to really figure out what I'm doing and when exactly I'm coming home because I really need to buy my plane ticket before the prices start skyrocketing. I'm now past the half-way point of being here, as I have been here for 5 months and I have 4 more to go. Crazy!

I really want someone to come visit me here! I really want to be able to share my life here with someone, so they can see what it's like, taste the food, etc. C'mon people - you can come in April for I think $700 or so. Once you get here it's really cheap, and you can stay with me. *sigh*
