hi.. richard~~!!!
this is nayeon...
it's been like ages....
how are you??
i've been worried about you.. because you haven't emailed me.. for long
time...
are you okay? is everything all right with you?
so many things happened to me since the year 2006 started...
that's why i couldn't write you... i'm sorry...
as i told you before.. i took a year off from school..
and studied to pass the exam.. which is for getting a job and becoming
a
government official...
to tell the truth... it was a total failure..
the exam was in february...
on the day that i have the exam... i had bad luck...
on my going to the place where the exam is held.. i felt sick...
so i had to get off from the subway.. and went to the washroom to throw
up...
and when i got there.. i was late.. so the people who are in charge of
the
exam didn't let me in...
they told me that the test papers are already given to the people who
were
taking the exam..
and once the test papers are given.. no one is allowed to get in..
i was desperate at that time.. so i begged them... but.. it was the
rule..
and i couldn't do anything..
for weeks.. i was depressed.. and felt like it was the end of the
world...
i've been prepared for it quite long time..
and.. last year.. i've always been under a lot of pressure because of
the
exam...
but.. the result was just like that...
for days.. i blamed myself.. i thought that all the bad luck came
along..
because i didn't work hard enough.. but.. what can i do?
i just decided to go back to school.. and finish my degree..
so.. here i am.. and right now.. i'm working on my thesis..
and this april.. i'm doing my practicom.. as a student teacher...
did i tell you that i'm attending graduate school of education... and
my
major is english education?
yeah... that is my major.. so the practicom is a part of the
coursework..
and i haven't finished it...
right now.. i've been working in a junior high school.. teaching
english...
and next week is my last week in school..
i could have done my practicom in seoul.. but i missed my mom and dad
so
much..
and i wanted to spend time with them.. so.. i'm doing the practicom
here in
sunchon..
you kow.. it's a small city.. so the students are nice and sweet..
i'm planning to take some photos with them next week.. if i take some...
i'll send them to you..
and after the practicom.. i'll be back in seoul.. and work on my thesis
again.. to finish the degree..
still.. long way to go...
i don't know what i'm going to do after finishing my degree..
probably.. i'll try to get a job at school...
but recently.. it's not easy to get a job as a teacher..
i feel.. nervous.. and worried.. because nothing's sure... and
settled...
but.. i'm trying to be positive.. ^________^
i'd love to visit vancouver to see you.. but.. you know.. thing's not
going well.. around me..
maybe next year...? i don't know.....
and.. did i tell you that my friend who i've known from vancouver is
getting
married?
actually.. she is a friend of my cousin.. she's chinese indonesian..
and an
immigrant..
she's getting married to a korean guy.. and the wedding is in korea...
the wedding's in may...
so.. in the end of last year.. she came to korea to prepare something
for
wedding..
when i met her.. talking with our memories in vancouver.. i thought of
you...
hope that i can see you soon..
how's everything in vancouver?
here.. in korea.. all the flowers are blooming...
the other night.. i went out walking.. and when the wind blows.. the
petals
of cherryblossoms fell down from skies.. it was just like snow falling
now.. the cherryblossoms are all gone.. but beautiful flowers are
blooming
all over.. pink, yellow and red..
i hope.. everything's okay with you...
please email me back..
take care... richard...
