So I made it to Korea.  I'm gonna be cheesy and call this my own Y2K -- Year 2 Korea.  So far it's much better than the first.  Let's examine why:

1.) My plane was delayed by 3 hours in Detroit.  Because of this delay, I missed my connecting flight from Japan to Korea.  This sounds like a bad thing at first glance, but not so.  It was a "mechanical ( Read more... )

So as you guys know, I've been in the U.S. for the past month, and I've been waffling on my decision to return to Korea at the end of August.  Well, I'm going to drop the bomb (why am i even using that expression when talking about Korea??)  on live journal before I take it to myspace:  I'm going back.

I found a job that has nearly everything I want ( Read more... )

Yep, so haven't updated in awhile.  I've kind of made the move over to MySpace.  I know.  But anyway, I've been posting more over there if anyone who hasn't found it wants to go look at it, i have the same name as my livejournal name ( Read more... )

Yep, this weekend pretty much sucked.  Korea lost their game and is out of the World Cup (but I'm still keeping the pride alive, see user pic), spent Saturday at the bar feeling like the hugest loser this side of high school, and Sunday was filled with a bad dinner and a bad movie.  Allow me to elaborate.

So Amanda, Jenn, and I are fucking starving ( Read more... )

So things are just chugging along as usual.  Last weekend was pretty laid-back, absolutely NO 4 am partying, which is unheard of.  But it was nice to take a little break.  Went to the beach on Sunday and finally got a tiny bit of a tan.  I don't care that much about tanning, but my legs were nearly glowing in the sun, they were so white.  It hurt ( Read more... )

So last weekend/week was shit.  It sucked and I don't even want to write about it.  It was just boring and unsatisfying, and then we had a holiday on Tuesday and that was shit too.  At least there was no work though.  Work was also very stressful this week....very not so good.  So that was last week.

I REALLY hate it when my weekends suck, so I'm ( Read more... )

Well, it was a crazy, jam-packed weekend.  Tons of people were out, and I was having fun, so I stayed out until 4:30 am on both Friday and Saturday.  That is too much partying, lol.  Not much to really say about that, but today was awesome.  Amanda called around 1 and we got some lunch, and then we chilled at her place all day long, just watching ( Read more... )

Sorry everybody, I wasn't exactly clear in my previous post about what my plans actually were.  As you can see, my decision about whether to stay in Korea or go home turned into a decision about whether to stay at my school or not.  And I decided not to stay at my school, as you read in the letter to my boss.

However.....I have decided to stay in ( Read more... )

So I am thinking about extending my contract in South Korea until mid-December. Here are the reasons why it would be a good idea ( Read more... )
