This first one is of a few of the random students. They are first years (7th grade) and from one of my nosier classes. Rather goofy group. They think I don't understand that I know when they are joking about me (at least the middle one doesn't). The one with the glasses is always acting goofy, yet she gets mad if someone calls her a comedian.
Schools over here don't have janitors, so the students are responsible for cleaning the school. Everyday after school they clean their classrooms. I don't know why, but the brooms here are so short. They have regular sized mops, but super short brooms here. Confuses me to no end.
I sometimes bring my football to work and throw it around during lunch with the students. They still call it a "rugby ball" and have no clue how to throw it or catch it. Still, they find it interesting that i like it so much.
Anyone who's spent time over here will tell you about the street food. You can't get away from it and you will eat it. This one happens to be the snack stand next to the school. The kids raid this place after school. They also sneak over and buy food during school hours and lunch when they aren't supposed to. I often stop and grab something here either during lunch or after school. Not the best food in terms of health, but it's good and cheap.
The owner of the corner mart next to my apartment. He and his wife are so cool to me and have even started carrying items just because I asked about it. A pretty remarkable accomplishment considering they hardly speak any English and I barely can greet them in Korean. Still, they always speak even when I don't come in to buy something. I can only imagine what they think of my random buying habits.
