C'mon, that's like 2 weeks after the premiere in Slovakia and Cambodia and everywhere else in the bloody world. FFS This does not make me happy. I was going to see it for my birthday, which was the original world release date. Now I'm sad.This is the first I've heard of this. I just looked and you are right.What. The. FUUCK. I had assumed it was this Thursday/Friday like the rest of the developed world... I had planned out my whole day Friday around this i didn't even check, becuase why would I? Force Awakens came out the same time here as everywhere else. Why the hell are they pushing this one back two weeks?! Why are they doing this to me?

I don't understand why they need to talk so loudly when they're sat next to each other. I even have headphones in and music on and I can STILL HEAR THEM. It's Monday morning, quiet please!Maybe they are talking about the impeachment. That's a pretty major deal.Nah this is definitely gossip. I think because the VP isn't here they're running wild. They haven't clicked a mouse or tapped a keyboard yet and it's almost 10am. Anything political usually gets given 5 minutes attention and then back to gossip.

Tried having a fun music lesson comparing different styles from the U.S, Korea, and Mexico (I'm Mexican so i try to incorporate it as a way to teach them a little extra besides just American culture). Anyway, I got a section where I compared different traditional styles and tried to explain how European influences shaped some Mexican music. They weren't getting it so I tried to compare it to how Japan took over Korea and my Co-Teacher just lost it. I mean I get the nationalism and all that but I was just making an example. NEVER reference anything from Korea. It will get lost in translation and they will lose their shit.
4D is basically poison.

Every other big american movie comes to Korea very close to the release date in the states. This is ridiculous! I also had planned my weekend around this. I need to write a strongly worded letter to someone. After I cry

Force Awakens came out the same time here as everywhere else. Why the hell are they pushing this one back two weeks?! Why are they doing this to me?yeah this is ridiculous. most major western movies actually release here 1 or 2 days BEFORE the international premieres. but then you get some that will come out here like 1 or 2 months after it's been released internationally.it probably has something to do with the korean movie release schedule. i think korean movies get 1st priority and there are probably some big korean movies coming out in the next few weeks. that would be my guess anyway. recently Hollywood movies have been absolutely crushing korean movies here at the box office so they are probably scared to release Rogue One at the same time lest it crush these poor korean films.
Yeah, I think it is time to get out of this teaching thing. Right now I have kids climbing all over me, grabbing me and my hair and it is 20 minutes before class and I want to scream at them to shut the f*%k up and get the hell out. I just don't think I can deal with this anymore. I don't quite think I have felt like this before, not this level annoyance at a bunch of 1st graders (elementary).
