Day off?

Ok so I was suppose to have the day off today. Did it happen? Nope it’s after 3pm and I’m sitting at my desk. I was upset at first but it’s ok.

The thing is I never have classes besides after school on Wednesdays so it’s not much difference. But I was told last week Friday that today would be a holiday since the kids are doing final testing. Even Monday was told the same thing. Yesterday the vice principal was saying how I looked tired and today would give me time to rest. Then was told I would have to come in this morning to sign out. Made no sense. I was like why can’t I just sign out for the entire day and save myself the trouble of even coming here. Yeah no go, why? I have no clue. 

So I came in this morning early like always. Did a ton of work that I didn’t have to do before 9am. By like 11 was told by co-teacher that I can leave now she just got it from the vice-principal. Go down there less than 10 minutes later.

Run into principal. New guy looking all curious. And co-teacher, vice principal, and principal speaking in Korean. I’m like O.o “what?” I can’t leave because the principal didn’t want me to…until after lunch. Not like I asked for the day off in the first place. But I would have appreciated it if they didn’t tell me I’d have today off and it didn’t happen at all. Like what was the point in that besides making me upset? 

Yeah it’s after 3pm and still here. I have barely an hour and a half left of work. So day off=sitting here all day. Yay~

My co-teacher was confused to that they did this. I know the principal was showing the school and stuff. But that has nothing to do with me besides saying hello. Was that why she didn’t want me to leave? *sigh*

I was like, me and my co-teacher cannot be the only ones dying of boredom. So I was like screw it and sent a message to new guy on fb to ask if he had any classes. Guess what? Nope. Not one class.

WHY ARE WE HERE?! 

And I know “OOoooo you sent new guy a message.”

I was dying of boredom and decided to see. What’s the point in being fb friends if you can’t even message each other? I decided to take the plunge. He apologized for seeing the message like 5 minutes later, which is like dude you don’t understand I’ve had friends that waited MONTHS if not YEARS to respond back. Granted they have valid excuses but still, 5 minutes is nothing~

His speaking if better than his writing? Or maybe I should say he understands more when you speak compared to reading, because he corrects his spelling mistakes. Not like I care when we are chatting unless it’s something that makes me go O.o what?

Next thing you know it was lunch. You can tell the vice principal was not happy about me not being able to get today off at all. The librarian and cleaning lady decided to talk to me at lunch. I was fine with that. Cleaning lady was asking about kpop artists that I know and librarian was translating. Also we reviewed the words she taught me yesterday. So lunch was actually pretty good. New guy kept looking to see how I pronounced certain things. I am horrible in Korean. I told him that and now he sees I was NOT lying. My tongue felt like it was being tied. Probably doesn’t help that I was also eating. 

The librarian was asking if it was hard to pronounce compared to other languages I’ve taken. I’m like yeah…see I took Spanish, German, and Japanese officially in school. Doesn’t count the other languages I attempted or picked up bits and pieces randomly. I can pronounce those the way they look. Korean…not so much. They were all O.o I’m like O.o what? Thought I only spoke English? pssh. You don’t know me.

Anyways, after awhile I was like alright done with lunch and left.  Back to being bored to death. Decided to look at cartoons. Yep good old Charlie Brown had me laughing. I swear Lucy…hahaha 

Next thing I know my co-teacher is saying the vice principal saw her and was all “OMG Aisha…where is she?” Obviously they were busy today with whatever else and forgot all about me. Why does everyone forget about me? Is it because I’m so quiet? T_T My co-teacher said she told her I was fine staying the rest of the day. It was after 3pm for goodness sakes. But she wrote something down where it won’t count against me and my co-teacher came to get me. When I went down I was all O.o “what’s going on?” New guy gave a wave all confused and it’s like I just saw you a few hours ago and I’m confused too. They let me get off work like an hour earlier than normal. Oooooo~ a day off ended up being barely an hour. Which doesn’t count because I was still there 8 hours today! Man….

I’m like ok….how shall I get home? Walk? I swear today made NO sense. New guy is all O.o I just shrug like dude I don’t know~. Coming to find out vice principal decided to give me a ride to the subway station. I went to Guri and bought some books. Which ended up being for new guy to improve his English. I have to edit the book first though. I swear some things are wrong. 

Now back to editing one of these books.

Until next time~
