It is getting time for seniors in Korea to take their college entrance exams. As a result, it is also college recruitment time. Just like in the U.S. we are talking about a lot of money, so the recruiters are out in force. The recruiters are at school several times during the week. And best of all... they bring the teachers presents.
Already I've gotten a nice metal travel mug from Pyeongtaek University with their logo on it. Very nice. Today Kyungmoon College came by. They brought a giant glass brandy-type glass that could easily hold 2 gallons of liquid. It was filled with different kinds of candy. It had a nice cork and lacey frilly cover. It is sitting infront of the vice-principal's desk. Very delicious. Another school came by and gave us each a drink. It's a medicinal Chinese tea. I did not drink it. They said it's very bitter. I say life is bitter enough without adding to it.
Victoria got the mug, and a folding leather pencil cup with a built in clock (some of our teachers got those too, but not me...) and some other leather thing (I forget) that all matches. Her school gets the better freebees.
I hope this doesn't stop soon.
