my accomplishment of the day.

Today was Sports Day at my school, and what better way to make use of the token foreigner than by having them participate in a race? Little did my staff or students know that I would dominate.

This has now made me a legend at my school, if only for a day. Students spent any conversation time with me swinging their arms in a 90-degree angle saying, "very very fast!" or giving me the thumbs-up shouting, "GOOD JOB TEACHA GOOD JOB!!!"

Both a source of pride and a boost to my popularity to have a 1st place stamp on my hand.

It was a good day.


There is a lot more to say about Korean Sports Day, but I'm about to go to Seoul for the infamous Lotus Festival (which celebrates Buddha's birthday). Thus, this rolling stone's gotta bounce.
