Co-teacher…kind of hmmmm
Ok so I knew this co-teacher was a bit off since the first day. After the first few days I was wondering how long she would last in general. She has some unique quirks about her.
- She can never make a fully correct sentence in English. Seriously, there’s always something wrong with them.
- She’s just kind of weird. I mean I know I’m weird. But not like this. Like I just sit there and look like O.o are you all upstairs? Taking some meds or something?
- To go along with number 2, she is always thinking someone might say something about her. HOW?! Hardly anyone knows her. Like seriously, she doesn’t talk with them or anything. So totally distanced herself from them. Yet follows me around. Which brings me to…
- She follows me around. I go to office she goes, lunch we have to go at the same time, after lunch she follows. WHY?! I can barely go to the bathroom without her right behind.
- Asks personal questions really randomly. It’s like the most oddest timing.
- She doesn’t really want to work…or be at school
- She doesn’t like Yangpyeong. Like come on you knew it was the country side before you took the job. IF you can’t adapt to it don’t come. What makes it even worse she’s from Seoul and goes back every weekend. I wish I could visit home that often.
- She’s really quiet like me, so she doesn’t like noises. Though you know working in an elementary school you are basically going to hear it all 8 hours. Pick your job wisely…
- Likes to tell me when sesame isn’t in something…when the freaking oil is in it. Like look, I can sniff this mess out. I am highly sensitive to it (if you didn’t know look at a past post I made about it). I will know it’s in there before most people. Half don’t even realize sesame oil is in something because it’s in almost everything here. Me on the other hand, can tell first sip/bite. Don’t test me. My poor skin and lips have went through enough. If I avoid it long enough it allows me to eat something with it in it but I still have to limit it. It’s a pain.
- Obviously not understanding I’m allergic to nuts too. STOP giving me things with peanut butter in them. I will NEVER EVER eat them~ I don’t wanna die, ok?
- Bonus: Today she said that she’s sick in the head and doesn’t want to come to work after next week. Thanks for letting me know something I kind of figured out~ They posted an ad for a new co-teacher today to start next month through February. Let’s see how this goes…
Until next time~
