Peperooooo!

Good morning, blog-o-sphere.  It's Friday morning over here, and we are definitely ready for the weekend.  It's hard to believe it's already November!  Soon to be December, which means we'll be home soon!

This week I had my second root canal (I know, my teeth are terrible).  I used a new dentist this time, and they were able to complete the root canal procedure in just a day (as opposed to 3 weeks at the other clinic).  The downside to this is that my mouth feels like someone got angry and punched it.  My teeth and gums are extremely sore, but I'll make it through.

It's getting really chilly here in Seoul, and you know what that means.  Snotty kids who don't wash their hands or cover their mouths when they cough or sneeze!  Hooray, germs!  So it's no wonder I woke up this morning with the beginnings of a cold.

Of course this would happen right before my birthday.  :p

In other news, I've booked two photoshoots with a fashion photographer!  The first one is set for a week from Sunday, and I'm very excited about finally getting some good beauty pictures for my portfolio.  I'll keep you updated when I get the shots in.  Also, I have updated my website to get ready for the new pictures:

We have finally gotten some new students in at school after an open house our management put on last week.  It's good to have "new blood" in the hallways; it takes away some of the latent gloom of worry.

As far as birthday plans go, I intend to stay in for the weekend save for dinner Sunday night. We're going to a nice Italian place on Cafe Street in Jukjeon.  We were thinking of seeing Les Mis in Seoul for my birthday, but tickets are pretty pricey, so I'm not sure if we'll end up doing that.  It's ok, though! I'm just happy for the weekend and the promise of seeing family and friends very soon.

A precious birthday card from two of my students who happen to be cousins, Scott and Ryan.  All of my students are really amused knowing that my birthday falls on Pepero Day.
Well, that's all I have.  Enjoy your weekends, everyone! Happy Pepero Day this Sunday! Be sure to eat some Pepero/Pocky-- you can find it at Wal-mart in the Asian foods aisle or at Hastings!
