September Goes Out With A Bang!!

Here I go, behind on the blogging again...wait, I never caught up. Anyways, I will continue with the happenings of life in Korea. September was quite a busy month, but a very exciting and fun one. I managed to get in some baseball games, which if you know me at all, I live breath and die baseball. I especially love the K-league because it is cheap, you can sit where ever you want, they have a cheer-leading squad, you can bring in your own food and drinks and my team, the SK Wyverns (the only Incheon team) have won the championship the past 2 years in a row. Basically, they kick ass even when the games are on a weeknight. Here was the first game I'd been to in about 3 months:
Incheon has the best baseball field in all of the K-league. I love watching games here. I dragged May out to her first ever baseball game and she loved it! The SK Wyverns WIN!! But, that's nothing new :) May, Erika and I couldn't resist a picture with the SK Wyverns cheer-leader master. He Rocks!!
Then a few days later I went to another SK Wyverns game:
The SK Wyverns stadium, B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!! A view of the outfield from the amazing seats we had for the game, which was the second last game of the season. Nicole came out to enjoy the game with me and some other friends.
Well, it was that time of year again, time for the English Golden Bell Competition with the grade 5 and grade 6 students. They were the only two grades that participated and the students were separated by their grade. I was in charge of asking all the questions to the students and I had the help of my co-teacher for their respective grade. Unfortunately, I can't find the pictures on our school website, so when I do I will be sure to post them.
The last weekend of September pretty much went out with a bang. I spent the weekend in Seoul with Rudy and friends to attend the Mass Freeze at Co-Ex mall and then the Mass Freeze after party. Basically, if you don't know what a mass freeze is, it's when a large amount of people all freeze in place at the exact same second for 5 minutes in a largely populated and busy place. What better place than the massive Co-Ex mall?!?! I wasn't able to get any pictures because I was involved in freezing, so unfortunately I have none of the actual freeze, but I do have after party photos :)
On the way to Co-Ex for the freeze we saw this delivery driver lying on the ground after he crashed it. The cops kept trying to talk to him and get him to move, but he was still (I thought for a moment he was dead). The worst part was, cars were rude enough to honk because of the back up of traffic due to the accident. How ignorant can you be, I mean seriously?!?! Mass Freeze After Party pictures:
Caroline was in charge of the Mass Freeze and she did a great job. We became really good friends that day. LA, Rudy and I are 3 very fun and fabulous females. I met Kristina for the first time at the Mass Freeze after party. I loved the Kool-Aid shots she was selling! This is Park Seong Woo, he was a model, who was shorter than me, how does that work?!?! Anyways, he was kind of cute, but I mostly loved his glasses.
I spent most of the day Sunday hungover and recovering in Seoul before I headed back to Incheon.
