Something About Years

On February 25th, 2003, I arrived at Incheon International Airport in South Korea. A day earlier I had told my parents that I would "only be staying for one, maybe two years." Well, Monday marks my 5 year mark. It truly doesn't seem like it's been that long. What have I done in that 5 year period?

February 2003-May 2004

• Taught at Kid's Herald School in Noeun Dong, Daejeon
  
• Spent Chusack in Japan with Jesse and Liz
• Spent the Chinese New Year in The Philippines
• Went home to Canada for a few weeks.
  

June 2004-July 2007

• Taught at Little English School in Nonsan
  
• Spent Chusack 2004 in China
• Spent the 2005 Chinese New Year in Singapore
• Went home to Canada for a couple of weeks in the summer of 2005
• Spent Chusack 2005 in Hong Kong
• Went to Vietnam and Cambodia for week in the summer of 2006
• Spent Chusack 2006 (plus an extra week) in Canada

August 2007

• Worked at a summer camp in Ilsan

September 2007 -

• Began teaching at Woosong University in Daejeon
  

Now the big question: How much longer will I stay? The answer: At least another 2 years. I'll be doing my master's degree in TESOL while I teach at Woosong. The coursework starts next week and the entire degree will take 4 semesters to complete.

Other than that, there's nothing much else new going on. I'm hoping to go to Thailand for a couple of weeks this summer and will definitely be going home for Christmas again this year.
