One Step Closer.

Friday was our final day in Jochiwon and after plenty of hugs were given, we were all loaded onto our coach heading for Jeonju in Jeonbuk/Jeollabuk-do province, the location for the final leg of orientation. Since arriving, we've had a 99 second sports competition, waterballoon fight, arts and crafts day after our trip to Sunchang was cancelled due to the typhoon (THINGS BE FLYIN') and snacks. Lots of snacks. Being in a bigger city is good although the Norebang (karaoke rooms for those who don't remember) here is slightly less glamorous than in Jochiwon.

So on my first day here, I had an accident that looked like another type of accident. After borrowing some loo roll from a fellow co-scholar, I went to the toilet down the hall and found 4-5 buttons next to the loo. Being stupid, I pressed the closest one without thinking, just to see what it did, you know? I couldn't have pressed a worse button. After pressing it, a little tube popped out of the toilet and this is when I realised... I've pressed the bum washer button. Bearing in mind I was still in a state of full dress stood over the toilet, I thought to myself: 'This measly little tube can't POSSIBLY get me while I'm stood over here'.

How wrong I was.

And then it happened, a REALLY BIG jet of water came flying at me and hit me right where it looked like I'd wet myself. Diving to the side, I waited for it to end while it sprayed against the cubicle door until I'd successfully created a mini-flood. At this point I grabbed the bin in the cubicle and tried to catch the water coming out of the toilet. It didn't stop. I eventually noticed a little X button which I pressed and finally put an end to Evil Toilet Tube's reign over the cubicle. After putting down some towels that were conveniently in the loo I wondered how frequently people end up doing this.

Tomorrow I'll be meeting my mentor teacher for the second time, and she'll be taking me to visit my school and show me my apartment. I found out that my Grade 3 class has one student in it. ONE!
