It's Been A While

I know that the blog has been in somewhat of a hiatus over the past few weeks, but c’mon, life gets busy you know. We have finished our first semester and things got a little hectic towards the end there with all the marking and report writing. It’s a very strange feeling this year, finishing one semester on Friday, and then beginning the new semester on Monday. I’m glad it’s only for this year; I don’t know how most people function only having 4 weeks holiday each year. I have been very busy over the past 3 days as I have been training for my Lifeguard qualification. Before any of you go there, there is absolutely no chance of me in a speedo (thankfully) – a thong maybe – but a speedo? No way! The experience has meant 3 days off school, and another 3 next week as well. It has also allowed me to go to one of the oldest, and most reputable, international schools in South Korea – Seoul Foreign School. Yesterday while we were standing beside the pool (indoor) I looked out the windows and noticed that it was snowing. This is the first time in my life that I have been swimming inside while it was snowing outside. Anyway, we are off to Beijing tomorrow, so keep an eye on the blog for an update of the Coopers’ Chinese Cavalcade.
