We got a new principal for the start of the semester. In the USA, people tend to stay at the same school for several decades. In Korea, you can't stay for more than 5 years at one school and you are often forced to teach a different subject/year every year within that school. So much for fine tuning lesson plans over the year and getting comfortable with an age group. Tomorrow night we are having an official welcoming party. It's not like I have better plans but Friday nights are sacred. My priorities are a red meat dinner, chocolate, a beer, and some serious R and R.
