today is pepero day, south korea's equivalent of valentine's day. the only difference is it completely revolves around one kind of candy founded by lotte, a korean conglomerate. the day was made up becausae 11.11 looks like 4 pepero sticks. so you hand out these cookie sticks covered in chocolate (and sometimes almonds) to people you like. i recieved a few packages from my students. one is a cute little box with pepero inside. the outside has a pretty pink ribbon and a note from my student which reads, "thank you for teach <3 -David-" i also received a bag of two long pastries shaped like pepero.
getting chocolate is fun, but getting cute notes filled with grammatical errors is even better.

I am all in favor of chocolate holidays--and sweet notes from students!
