Rock...Scissor...Romeo!

My students had to change the story of Romeo & Juliet so that it wasn't a tragedy anymore. They decided to solve the fighting problem by doing "Rock Scissor Paper" as a solution. This is a common way to solve disputes in Korea, even with old men. It's hilarious. I'm SO proud of my kids - they did an amazing job!!

Trip to Paju

It's been a while ~ I apologize!! I just hadn't done much really. (That and I'm a tad lazy :) )
Last weekend, I went with a group of friends up to a cabin in Paju. It was really quite beautiful. We grilled out for dinner and the next day went to see Heyri, an artist's village in Paju. We were planning on hiking but it was just too cold!! We say some really neat things in Heyri, including a trick art museum, a regular museum, and a toy museum, which Oscar really loved. It was a lovely weekend. I need to travel more this year!!
Cabin!

I was tickled to find all the windows were from America!
