Dear Diary

"Do a what you love and you will not work a day in your life."

This week has rolled in pretty well for me as I started two new classes, as a teacher. I've just finished the second new class today and it just felt good. I've noticed that even though I'm not feeling good before a class, I tend to feel lighter after. I'm usually in good spirits after a class. Not because it's over but because I enjoyed doing it. Although it's not always smooth, there is the sense of fulfillment whenever I hear my students get to practice and speak their minds in the target language. The line above resonates with me as I've found myself in the teaching world.

Today has been pretty upbeat in a sense starting from my language exchange in the morning. I feel more free to speak in Korean than before. I can be pretty talkative once I find my voice and confidence. It helps that I have a language partner whom I can practice without a lot of inhibitions. She helps me practice in a healthier environment unlike if I do it with my husband who has no patience and have the tendency to try to teach me very hard and be frustrated if I don't get something right. Not very helpful at all.

There are still more things that happened today, along with P's swimming lesson. But that will be in another entry somewhere. I'm just thankful for the people I've met and the good things that happened today.
