Our school life has also had some changes. B has 3 new Korean co-workers, and 1 new foreign teacher. His class schedule now includes going to an elementary school twice a week as well. They've set up after school programs for most of the elem. schools in our area, so most of our friends also have to take part in this. It's a lot more planning and a bit of headache to get out to the schools (since they're all in the rural areas) but B has his motorcycle so he's fine.
I also has a new foreigner at school. Actually, my guy is dating B's co-worker (they came together). I've also got a new main co-teacher, so that's been a big change. The best new thing at my school, by far, is the new English classroom. Some schools in Korea have been given grants by the govt to establish English Zones, classrooms filled with hi-tech goodies for the foreign teacher to use. My room reportdly cost over 30,000 US dollars to renovate and set up. I'll have to take some pictures and post them on here soon.
Our computer's hard disk crashed a week ago. At first we thought we would lose all of our data, but luckily the repairman was able to find most of our documents and recovered them for us. We were happily surprised that he only charged us a total of 120,000won (about $100) to fix it up. So far it's working well again.
On the 7th we took in "The Marriage of Figaro" in Seoul.
Last weekend was our friend's b-day party. Roxanne & I got dolled up for the event.

Looks like you're doing great as ever. That's so neat that you have new equipment to use!
