Wow. I am on a roller coaster.
On a certain day I just want to go home to California; to a place where I know the people, the language, and the EVERYTHING. I come home to my one room apartment after school and there's no one. I often get something to eat in the fridge, turn on the TV for noise, then just wonder what the heck I'm doing here. I keep thinking I'm not happy and I would only be happy if I go home. Then...
The next day I would feel like life's not so bad here. The food is good, the transportation is great, and my school is especially nice to me. On those days, I think I can stay in Korea another 6 months or even longer. Whenever I get to school, I feel happy. I think I love my students and I want to inspire them. It makes me so happy when they learn something or when they tell my co-teacher in Korean that they like English. Whenever I hear them speak English randomly outside of class, I want to stay... for them.
Then... I come home and my feelings cycle again.
