Sleep is overrated

But I don't really believe that.

Tears have been shed this week, as some of my classes have come to a close. On Tuesday, two of my classes of younger students (ages 4-6, and 7-8) ended, and the latter group witnessed my tears. They gave me the best hugs, and held on tighter when they saw how sad I was to say good-bye. I've been getting some lovely gifts too, and I feel so spoiled. If I could, I would take some of these kids to South Korea with me, so I could continue teaching them. I'm going to miss them so much! I had a nice dinner out with my adult group on Tuesday, and had pierogi for the second time since living here! About time, eh? They were quite delicious! We're going out again this upcoming Tuesday, so I didn't have to say farewell just then.

I foolishly ate some chocolate before bed on Tuesday night, thinking I was too tired and the chocolate wouldn't affect me. I should know better, because chocolate ALWAYS keeps me awake. Sure enough, I had a fitful night and was up at 4 and again at 5. I stayed awake from 5am on, because I am a crazy person, and somehow got through the day! We had Thursday off, so I was able to sleep in. But then again last night I was up between 1am and 4:30am. There is a lot to think about right now, so I think that is keeping me awake. Plus I had a very full tummy from a delicious sushi dinner, so that wasn't helping either. The time has been well spent though, and is a great time to catch up with people on Skype! Haha

I predict more tears being shed today, as it's my last Friday. I love my Fridays. Then next week, Monday and Thursday are my only full days of teaching left! (Tuesday and Wednesday are dinners out with my adult groups.) WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN???

I think I am going to nap now...
