Living in Korea Next Fall

Right now the big news is that April and I are considering headin' off to South Korea in the fall to teach conversational English.

This kinda came outta no-where, and it added a good bit of stress to my life. I've got till the 16th to write my SIP, I've gotta CLEP outta Spanish, do my cross-cultural paper, plan a wedding, work, and now try to decide whether or not to go to Korea. Its giving me a headache.

It'll probably be right good fun though to get to teach someone conversational English. I'm fairly convinced after taking Ancient Greek that English, particularly the American instantiation of English, is all about pushing the limits and chucking the rules out the window whenever you feel like it. So I'm wondering if the whole experience will be centered around teaching them slang words and how to talk like a gangsta.

Oh, one final concern. I hear that Korean meals are tiny. This will probably annoy me.
