Hair Job

Sunday a friend and I went shopping. While we were walking around we started talking about hair and she asked if i wanted to get my hair done... of course!! We had to wait at first because they had to decide if they could help us. So thankfully they could and I ended up with a pretty good job. My hair is a little yellow to me, but she said that this is as blond as its going to get in Korea. This is the cute hair dresser with me. The salon was filled with so many chemicals because everyone was getting a perm!! It was kind of funny. My friend told me that the older a woman gets the shorter and tighter the perm gets. I see some things cross cultural lines;) Next time Yoon and I are going to go together. It will be great.

We went Seomyeon which is a very popular shopping area. I finally found some slippers that will help my feet since we are not allowed to wear shoes at work. I was also able to find a fake pair of Uggs for only 19$ it was awesome. It turns out that at Seomyeon Station (subway) a person can shop from one end of the station to the other which I would guess to be about a kilometer long. I found lots of shoes that I like, and they even had my size. I wanted to buy some clothes while my friend was there because it seems that they label sizes in numbers 90,95,100. So I am not sure what size I am. Some things look as though they should fit, but I just haven't had the courage to try. I remember in China I grabbed a shirt and the lady took it away from me and just shook her head a lot saying no! So it scared me a little I guess.

I can't wait for January to be over. We have so many classes and I have to start work early. I will be teaching 146 forty minute classes this month. It is so hard to talk for 7 hours straight reading the same thing. The books are okay but some of them seem to be to easy for some of the kids. Oh well this is what I signed up for right?!

Bye for now
