This upcoming weekend may be the first in a long time that neither of us has been sick. There have been a lot of seasonal colds going around, and all the kids and teachers in the school have been hacking and sneezing for weeks.
Yesterday we had a fun morning. Ben and I wanted to buy doughnuts for everyone at work, so we left early and caught a bus. About 3/4ths of the way there, we hear a car honking loudly nearby. Apparently our bus cut someone off in a turning lane (it happens a lot), so the driver of the car got angry and swerved into the lane in front of us and stopped.
Unsurprisingly, the bus hit the car.
It was interesting to watch how calmly the Koreans on the bus (even the bus driver) handled the situation. I imagine that if we were in America, there would be some very angry, very loud passengers. Instead, the Korean passengers just sat quietly and attentively until the bus driver told us what to do. He called another bus to come pick us up, and we transferred with little fuss. It was all very civilized. All of this took about 5-10 minutes, so even though we were in a wreck... we still managed to get doughnuts and coffee.
Win.
Tomorrow is field trip day at school! We will be taking the kindies to an astronomy center, so I think that will be a lot of fun. Monthly tests are later this week, too, so we won't be teaching a whole lot for the rest of a week. That's good. We could use the rest.
There's more to tell, but we have to go to work now. I hope all of you are doing well!
