So yesterday I was having a class with my student and all we did the whole time was talk about our struggles in life. He's a 45 year old man (an engineer) and he was sharing his problem about his marriage. I was very glad he did, that made me feel like he trust me. Right after he asked me about my personal struggles and I couldn't help but to tell him about the problems Im facing now. You see my laptop broke last month and It's giving me tons of stress! I couldn't do my job well and Im kind of short on the budget. I've saved half of the money I needed to buy a new laptop and I told my student that probably it would take me another month or two to have the amount I need. What he did was amazing!!! He insisted to buy the computer for me on his own Birthday!! I refused at first but he was like "Come on just let me do this just for my birthday!". I should be the one to give give him a present but this guy... Oh man.. I'm just really very thankful and blessed to have known such person. Anyways, for his birthday I've printed a shirt for him. He's a very good christian and I've been teaching him for 6 months now..

Hi Alice it's a kind of a language exchange program they have in Korea. I teach him a little English. It's not mainly teaching but all I have to do is just to talk with them about random things and I get paid doing that.
