Time to move..again.

Well as things are we will be moving again. This time to the new downtown area of Iksan. This week we will be sooo busy. First we will junk our Equus. I am debating to either ger a newer one (we love the model), an SUV (I have it narrowed down to just one model). But that will not happen for another 3.5 months.

At the moment we will be preparing to move. I will draw up a detailed plan for the last stage of prep.
I can not wait to get settled into my new job. I feel like for the past 8 months I have not been teaching. I have been following orders. I could not really innovate as much as I wanted. The only impact I think I really had was showing them (the younger students) that the phonics sounds they were learning from Mrs. Kim were...wrong. In addition the older students I taught them the basics of writing a standard essay. No easy feat. Parents have given us feedback through their children and when I met them in person. Many were worried that a male teacher would be teaching their children.

However due to the positive feedback from the students the parents were relieved. I saw how old school teaching looks like at KCIS. I am glad to say I will never sign another contract with a school like that. Just too old fashioned. I will not go into detail here.

So we will move on March 10th. About 3 months later buy a car. I am happy about this. Yogita is doing very well.The boys are studying well, and oskar...is alive.

Tomorrow we will junk our car. When I bought it, it was for weekend drives, getting around the city, and of course for camping. HOWEVER....it ended up doing a lot more than that. I drove it around 50,000 kms. Likely more like 60 or 70,000 kms. So it needed a lot of mechanical work done on it. Josh teased me a lot about her. We will see who the replace is. The market has so many of these cars due to new models coming out. So I will have a  lot of choice.

P.S Being able to communicate with my boss is something I took for granted. Apple spoiled me.
