*ah* to be Jung again

At the moment i'm extremely peeved.
I received two complaints regarding 1. how i used a Korean phrase in the classroom which kind of meant "do you want to die?" (mainly used to say: stop doing that, i don't like it)
Despite having caught my kids saying that statement while in the midst of teaching the class about what 'idioms' were.
So i told the kiddies i knew what that meant and to not to use it...however since I was teaching about idioms, i said that to a foreigner, that sounded like an actual threat, instead of what it's really meant as "stop that"
but they knew it wasn't...and that was what an 'idiom' meant...
a phrase that means something but if taken literally, means entirely different...or incomprehensible.
But of course, i had kids, after leaving my class saying how cool i was for knowing that korean phrase...saying this infront of my boss...and then i get in trouble.
Basically i was spoken to, saying i should never use such a phrase in my class...
that teachers don't use that in their classrooms.
I was extremely peeved b/c they didn't know in what context that phrase was used.
They just automatically assumed i splurtted it out.
Of course, this complaint came after I was taken out of the middle of class by my supervisor informing me that my boss didn't like me playing scrabble with my class after their lesson was done...
b/c the boss didn't like it
and then later informed that a parent complained saying how their kid said that what they did in class all day was play scrabble.
peeved? just a tad.
but also, dammit, the things i have to teach is so little and i have to extend it into 2 lessons (nearly impossible)
My supervisor informed me that i should give more questions, debate, or make worksheets...
and in my head i'm thinking: "damnit, i don't even have enough time to do my daily paperwork, how the hell am i going to have enough time to make worksheets?!"
and as for debating...yeah...like that's gonna work...
i'm teaching kids that don't give a crap...
wonderful.
So now i gotta figure out what to do.
I'm thinking about teaching them how to write an essay...
that's right, make them kill the little fucker who complained to their mother.
I'm gonna make'em suffer...b/c i have to suffer lol.
Well, there's nothing else I can do,
i can't play games with them,
and scrabble was the most appropriate game, instead of pictionary and hangman
b/c it dealt with spelling and it was challenging...
so now I gotta add some other lesson to their usual one b/c there is no way I can stretch a very sparse lesson into 2 forty minute classes...
not with these kids, who are the top kids in the school.
So more writing it is...more stress and work for the kids and no games.

Blargh, alright, complaining is over.
I'm very happy for my brother.
Today, he informed me he passed his engineer credentials
very proud.

Also, today, Shella and I checked out the 2 local gyms near our place.
They both had the machines I used...so i'm tempted..
the closest gym to us..for 3 months, 120 bucks....
i dunno...i'm thinking about it.

This past weekend, i hanged with Lauren and went to a public bathroom,
also, went for a facial..it was gooood.
Felt mucho refreshed and relaxed..and I needed it.
This month and upcoming months have and will be BRUTAL.

I'm also somewhat being phone stalked by a korean boy trying to pick me up,
despite getting another korean to msg him informing him that I am taken/engaged.
*huzzah* another pseudo-engagement for moi!

*sigh* work has been rough and tomorrow will be my supervisor's last day (she's extremely pregnant)
I've somewhat met...or more of: observed, the new supervisor....i'm scared.
She doesn't seem too talkative (including speaking much of English),
and probably won't like my jokes..unlike my present supervisor who laughs and jokes around with me.
But, thank gawd Joey will be the head teacher...so at least i'll have someone on my side.

Alright, enough updating for now.
Really rough day and just want to spend some time with my special girl....and L

"I can't see anyone not liking you, seriously" - Shella
"I hope my daughter will be as smart as you....but not as sarcastic"- Fiona

[kid points to picture of the ugly duckling]: "you, teacher!"
"Why, YES, i AM a beautiful swan, thank you"
"Yes you are" says Mary.

"How can a Korean speak such English?!" - Amy, new supervisor not knowing that I am not Korean.
