Good-bye March

Hello from beautiful Tongyeong! This past month has been pretty quiet...hence the lack of posts...but I thought I'd show you a little of what's been going on.

I can't remember if I've blogged about noraebongs but if I haven't...these are kind of like small karaoke rooms for your friends to have loads of fun! When one of the Koreans we know was having a birthday a few weeks ago, so we celebrated with a night at the noraebong. The particular one we went to had fun masks and such so Kami and I took full opportunity of these! It was lots of fun!
This night we laughed harder than we've laughed in a loooong time. One of the guys we went with, Sam, put on this mask and sang his song. It was sooo funny!!
The final Friday of March was a big day at our school called the Dollar Festival. This is a reward/fun day for the students and they love it. It was our first since we've been here (I think there are 3 annually) and it was an interesting day. One of my jobs for the day was drawing on some of the children's faces. It was quite fun! Here are a few of my fun faces I got on camera!
Last weekend, Kami, Amie (our new co-worker from NZ), and I headed to Jinhae for the cherry blossom festival. We didn't get to stay long but it was fun to get to see some pretty trees while we were there. Kami found some Dr. Pepper there, so she was a happy camper. I love the cherry blossoms!!
Ok that wraps up the highlights from March. With the weather getting warmer, there should be more to do! I'll try to keep you updated!
