School Time

My boy is getting all grown up and going to school! Classes have started and my main man will be learning.....{drum roll please}.... KOREAN! He has been doing independent study before classes went into full swing. History, pop culture, celebrities, geography.
.
At church they gave him a Korean Book of Mormon. He took a cell phone picture of the writing and sent it to me, to which I responded "You have to learn how to read like THAT?".

He is very excited to get going with things, being in limbo in between training and schooling isn't very fun and the time goes by really slowly. He is living off base with a really nice family who the husband is also at the DLI and they had an extra room to spare. So now his schedule will look something like this.
.
sleep.
wake up.
study.
eat breakfast.
study.
ride the bus.

repeat.

The classes are intense and fast paced. Falling behind is not an option, fall behind at all and you flunk out. TALK ABOUT PRESSURE! They try to fit educational-fun in here and there. Marcus sent me the link for this YouTube clip. I guess some students in a past session made this video as a class project.

Happy Studying Your Brains Out Marcus!!
