Thought I'd better update seeing's camp has finished. Firstly, our last night out in Seoul was good but very wet! We went to eat and then made our way to Itaewon fr a drink. The rain was awful. It had been raining for a couple of days - but only at night thankfully. Anyway a good time was had by everyone. It was Scotts last Saturday so it was a bit sad.
The last day of camp was very sad. By the time it came I was exhausted. We'd had to write two estd so that eant a couple of nights up until 1 am and then one night in the office until 8pm making props for our play. The dress rehearsal was a disaster! It was fine until the other classes came in and the kids were making a lot of noise. My kids lost their concentration - even my Pinocchio who is very good. My shark had been away so he was shakey anyway. we practised and practised and on the day it was fine.
The last day was so sad. I was fine until a couple of my kids went and one of htem started crying. After the plays, awards etc the teachers had to get on stagew and say goodbye. It was bad enough we had to watch teh montage of pics set to sad music first. Hanna also played sad background music while we were up on stage. I was so tearful. After I said my piece Amy came on stage and gave me flowers. I felt like I'd got an award! After our speeches the CA's made theirs and they were crying more than us! Afterwards there were quite a few crying kids and lots of tearful goodbyes. Hopefully when I go back I'll see a lot f the kids again. We wnt back o the office and started packing up. I love Koreans - there was non of this 'lets pack up tomorrow". It was all hands on deck and it looked like the English camp never existed! Everything was packed and classrooms were rearranged. We freshened up a bit then made our way to the meat restaurant for our oodbye dinner. Lots of food and soju was consumed. Afterwards some of us went to a Noreabang and soju was smuggled in. OMG we were all drunk - the singing left a lot to be desired. Of course in our drunken state we all thought we sounded great! I just about remember leaving. On our way home Steve pulled beers from his bag and we carried on drinking. I woke up on my bed fully clothed clutching my handbag! It was a very emotional day and night. I'm going to miss the kids. the CA's and Hanna and Mr. Han so much. It was a great 4 weeks and even though it was hard work I really enjoyed it. I really hope I can do it again.
