Let’s Play Golf
Our last two posts have been about the very competitive educational climate in Korea and in particular the rigourous study habits of Korean students. However, we are very happy to announce that while our girls, who are from Korea, are excellent students who know how to study hard they are also learning how to play.
My mom use to say to me, “All work and no play makes Jay a very dull boy.” As a result, while I didn’t study too hard, I did learn how to play hard. So its seems only fitting that one of our “missions” as host parents is to teach our girls how to relax and have fun in the context of studying hard.
In that spirit we took all the girls for a day of playing minature golf. By the expression on Hae Jin’s and Won’s faces you can tell they too have learned how to play hard.
