I'm going to Wonju!

Today I FINALLY found out were I'll be living for the next year! I will be in the town of Wonju in the province of Gangwon in South Korea. Wonju (according to the paragraph describing it on wikipedia) is the largest city (population-wise) of Gangwon province. Its a larger city, 300,000 people, and the best part is that its only an hour from Seoul, an hour from the beach and on the major train lines, so we can get all over Korea, especially to the south, very easily! How lucky!

Also, Jason and I will be in the same town! Yay!! And we happen to be placed in the same town as our friend Scott from UCI. How did that happen?! No idea. We leave for Wonju tomorrow, and should meet our Korean co-teachers then. And we also should move into our apartments, which would be great to finally be able to unpack and get out of the dorm.

But get this, the best part, we found out where we will be teaching!! I'll be at at all girls Middle school. Jason, on the other hand, will be at... an all girls high school!! HAHAHAHAHHA. Actually, I feel a little bad for him, but he says he's fine with it, and he'll have fun with it. He'll have to find a way to relate to high school Korean girls, LOL. Our schools are most likely right next to each other as they are both Sangji Middle School and then Sangji High School. All girls should be really interesting! We should start teaching on Monday!

Tomorrow we have to have our bags on the bust to Wonju by 8:30am, and then once we meet our co-teachers, who knows where the day could go!

As a warning, we may not be able to get internet for a few weeks so that will probably limit the time we have to email/blog. Hopefully we can get online at school, but we shall see!
