The Wikipedia page for "Natural Disasters: South Korea" Only shows 2 earthquakes, 1 in '07, 1 in '10. As for this one in Japan, not even aftershocks. Neither of the Koreas ended up on the advisory list for earthquakes or tsunamis. Heard from my mom that some people were worried, so no worries here. I've also confirmed that all 7 of my friends in Japan are ok, as are their families.
Classes switched at the beginning of March, the only major change for me is that I have the new baby third graders! There English is almost non-existent, making teaching them a real challenge, as my Korean is also almost non-existent. There are two groups of them, one marginally better than the others. It's hard to teach them, the first day of class they didn't understand when I dismissed them!, but it allows for fun. A lot of picture drawing, charades... and they seem to be responding well to me, even if they don't always know what's going on. The other classes I have, 5th, 6th, and 7th graders, are all par for course.
Not much left report, slowly but surely counting down the days. It'll be about 4 months or less until I'm back in the states!
Stay safe everyone,
Hannah
