Second to last day, for the first semester of school! Many teachers and students are anxious for summer break. I found out today that my English co-teacher is leaving the school after this semester. He used his holiday last week because his father is sick. So instead of teaching he will be going home to care for his father. I will be getting a new co-teacher next semester, but I don't know whom yet. I spent most of the school day preparing for summer camp.
After school, Kwag Sang-hyun and I picked up my health papers at the Osan Hospital to apply for my 'alien card' at the Suwon government offices. I felt like I was waiting forever. I should be receiving my documents within two weeks, just before my summer vacation, hopefully! Afterwards, we went to a nearby English bookstore “Little John” to get some textbooks for my English summer camp, I got two different level books and the corresponding workbooks. The school paid for the books since I will be making copies to handout to the students. I also learned the school is going to inquire about purchasing a bicycle for me to make my commute easier and quicker. Yay! Hopefully, I will be receiving it before the end of English summer camp. Then I went back to school to meet up with some of the teachers to go out for dinner and drinks. My English co-teacher was very kind to invite me and I had a good time too. After dinner we went upstairs to a billiards hall and played some pool. One of the teachers (Jennifer is her English name) beat me in pool several times, I only won one game ☹ but I had plenty of fun.

a KOREAN version of Sven Sundgaard! What is the world coming to?
