Hello and Welcome!
Thank you for stopping by. I am a soon-to-be American expat in South Korea. In a few short weeks I will be teaching English as a Second Language (henceforth to be referred to as ESL) at a private school (hagwon) in South Korea.
Pretty exciting stuff, no?
Wanna know something even cooler? I'm not alone. My oni is here as well. For those among us who don't speak Korean, "oni" means "older sister". Yup, my big sister* is here with me. She has a name (but we'll just call her Oni for now), and she's been teaching ESL in Korea for five months now. She's a beautiful, talented woman with a Master's degree and a penchant for words. She'll also be contributing to this blog from time to time.
Which brings me to my next point - consistency in writing has never been my strong suit. I have started endless blogs and even more novels than I care to count, and not a single one is still being updated. As far as the blogs go, I always attributed that to not having anything to write about. I guess we'll see if that excuse holds up now that I'm in (or soon to be in) a foreign country.
Second post will be either from me when I arrive in Gwangju (yes, there are cities in South Korea besides Seoul. Shocking, right?), or from Oni about whatever she's doing to occupy herself until I arrive.
'Til next time!
* she's also the good sister. I'm the evil twin.
