101/11

Here's my 101^st post!

And I've been in Korea for 11 months! 

Only a month to go...I'm not feeling too rushed/panicked/sentimental/elated just yet, but the time will probably come for all of those things. For now, I'm enjoying the fall weather, appreciating the funny moments at school (today when I told a noisy table of fifth-graders to stop talking, a boy named Jong-oh told me, "I have nothing to do with the matter."), looking high and low for a new job, and fitting in some more exploratory activities. Last Saturday I visited a prison museum and this Saturday I'll hike at one of Korea's most famous mountains. I've covered a pretty decent amount of the country over the past 11 months, so anything from here until the end is a bonus.
