...Vincent!!!! Vincent!!!!
Vincent: Yeah, Teacher Rose, what is it??
Rose: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
Vincent: For what???
Rose: You are the TEACHER of the month for February! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Now, how do we celebrate? AHHH!! I know! Let's have Samgyupsal buffet!! Sounds good???
Vincent: Well. that's not a big deal but, thanks anyway... Don't forget to call Abi tonight then and please tell her to not be LATE!..... AGAIN!
Rose: Hahaha you know that girl! She's always late...
Vincent: Yeah, I know right... Tell her to meet us at 6pm then we meet her at 7pm. Hahahaha. Sounds good?
Rose: Good idea!
Vincent: Ahhhhhh... Finally, end of another semester. So it means, new students and I have enough time to sleep in the morning. I have 4 students left and I wont be having a student during the first period which, means I could sleep till 8am and come to work at 9am. I really hate waking up at 5 in the morning just to enter the first period at 7am. Terrible traffic and lack of transportation coming here.
Rose: Yeah, I feel you.
Vincent: Good for the students because they have a dormitory here. You know, if they have free time after each of their two-hour class, they could just go back to their room and lie on their bed for a bit. Enough to restore energy to study again. I envy them.... I want to be a student again. I hate being an adult...
Rose: Hahaha you have a long way to go Vincent. You haven't experience 1/4 of my life.
Vincent: I wonder how you stay positive and stay in this company for like three years with this kind of salary. It's really low and not to mention that you are raising two teenagers now!
Rose: Well, you just need to keep on moving forward.. Come on! Cheer up! We can work abroad someday! And then, we could earn tenfold of our salary. Just gather more experience then we could enjoy our future in no time.
Vincent: Yeaaahhhh.. I'm pulling myself together.. Let's finish this day and let's have Samgyupsal Parteeeey!!
