thursday evening, with the arrival of a former teacher, the brighton staff headed out for some gobi dinner.

so a peruvian band started playing down the mall a bit. i guess we will be protected from the giant gerbils. . . . however, i was wondering why a peruvian band was wearing a typically north american native head-dress?

as usual, our evening ended up at the noraebong.
we had a cute little stuffed animal that somehow made it's way into our room and kept us company.

scrooge's
so, here's a lousy shot of the bar where i watched my first rugby match. new zealand vs. australia in the start of the tri-nations playoffs.
our bar was flooded with kiwis. . . and one aussie. he was trying really hard to hold his own. the bar across the street, which was also following the game, was filled with aussies from the sounds of their cheering. we tried to tell the guy he just had the wrong bar.
anyway, the game ended well, the new zealand all blacks took it, 22-16. whoo hoo! ps. the haka (the maori posture dance) that the all blacks do before the game is so freaking rad. . . and intimidating.

i don't think you'll catch me in this noraebong anytime soon. but it's entertaining from the street.

gs.drinks
a group of co workers having an end of week drink outside the GS (basically like a 7-11, but not, because we have 7-11's). here in ansan, practically anywhere you can buy alcohol, there is a set of picnic tables outside to sit at and enjoy aforementioned drinks.

i couldn't really decide if this looked like a teddy bear suicide. . . or a teddy bear ticket.

diana class made magnifying glasses out of drops of water in their science class this week.
mercury.sings.1
arts and crafts in mercury class this week involved making fake microphones. loud singing commenced.
mercury.sings.2
kind of like kiddie noraebong. . .only each kid was singing their own song. . . and there was certainly not enough alcohol going around.
folk.village.1
june's field trip was to suwon's folk village. i hope to go again, without a bunch of students to watch over. there seemed to be some great artifacts and things to check out. . . aside from it being real pretty.
folk.village.2
these are sort of akin to totem poles. the marked the entrance of towns and hopefully warded away anything dangerous.
