Taekwondo!!!

So I've been a regular student of taekwondo for the past 4 months in Korea and I have to my surprise made it to the blue belt!  Everyday I would attend taekwondo after work for about and hour.  I learned many things including language and culture. I was the first ever foreigner to attend that taekwondo academy.  Everything was in korean but its fairly easy to be a part of it and particapate because I would just follow what everyone did.  Everyone was very nice to me and it was such a great thing to experience while teaching in Korea.  I plan to not give up and try to make it to black belt.  Since I'm in the process of moving to a new location I will have to find a new taekwondo academy to attend.  I will miss this one though since it was where I first started learning taekwondo.


















Halloween Hagwon Style 2012

I had the greatest time at our halloween party in our hagwon.  It was very similar to the experiences I had growing up in Hawaii with the haunted house and spooky decorations.  I loved it and couldn' believe that it only to 3 of us to put on this production.  The kids enjoyed our scary make up and some of them even got a little scared.  A time to never forget:)
