Its official, I am now a card carrying alien... with a bank account!! I am so glad that the paper shuffle is coming to a close. I am getting my cell phone and internet tomorrow. Yes that's right folks I am finally getting a cell. I am going to make sure that it has a translator so that it won't be so hard to get things. I think that I should really start trying to master some of the language.
I have been reading a lot of books lately, its easier than trying to master the outside world, especially when you just don`t feel up for it. If anyone has a must read book, you can pass it my way;) I have not yet mastered the shopping here. Clothes all seem to be in centimeters I think (90,95,100,105) so I am not exactly sure what size I am. It is also not pay day for another couple of weeks, so I must ration. Moving is expensive no matter where a person goes.
We have been steadily meeting people, as there are so many foreigners in our building. Everyone says that the first few months are quite crappy and hard, but after that they are having a great time- especially once beach weather comes along. So I almost over the 2 month mark. It will be awesome I am sure. I am looking forward to traveling and hiking and seeing all the neat things Korea has to offer.
I am working 6 days this week so that a coworker can head to China. There have been quite a few people who are doing that, being Chinese New Year and all on the 26&27 it is going to be a blast. We are heading to Gumi on Sunday and then the country on Monday with Mike and Eun Sook. I can`t wait to see the country. We are coming back Monday night and I have Tuesday off, which we will probably spend at the beach.
Anway gotta go!
