Itchy heads … oh junk!

Last week, 3 students got sent home with head lice.  Kindergarten was canceled Thursday and Friday to get rid of those suckers.  Like always, everyone has itchy heads … thankfully, not all these itches come from lice.  I have been nervous about it, even though I am not really around those kids that got it a whole lot.  Today, the same 2 girls that had it were sent home AGAIN! Ugh … AND I got to take the Kindergartners to recess, the ones who are around those that have it again.  The whole time I was like, um, please don’t touch me … and trying not to touch my face and hair.  Gross, that is definitely something I do not ever want to experience.  The Kindergartners were crazy on the way to and from the playground.  Wow, I don’t think I could handle them all day.  I was trying so hard to be in control and get them in a stinking line to cross the street … I was so out of patience by the time I got back.  My poor 1^st graders, they were probably wondering why Miss Kidd had ZERO patience today and was upset that they weren’t listening.  WE had a very serious talk about this! Lol … hopefully tomorrow my LAST DAY OF TEACHING will go better!  Yes, tomorrow Is my last day of teaching … from here on out (which is only till May 5^th) I will be observing and lending a hand here and there.  It is quite exciting to see the end approaching!  I cannot wait to be done w/ all this crazy paperwork – it’s masses and masses.  L.U. should find a way to reduce that if at all possible.  

On a happier note, spring has finally come to Korea.  The cherry blossoms, green trees and flowers are so pretty.  I miss seeing nature here in the “city” … I love spring time – beautiful colors and warmer weather.  I can’t wait to see more green when I get back to the States … it will be so nice!  AND I will have FRESH air and not highly polluted and infested with yellow dust.  People were masks here in order to not breathe in the gross air … fresh air will be so refreshing! : )
