SO, 18 WEEKS INTO MY TEACHING GIG IN SOUTH KOREA, I'M FINALLY MAKING AN ATTEMPT TO BLOG.
KEYWORD #ATTEMPT
THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS THAT I CAN TALK ABOUT THAT I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN. I AM PLANNING TO JUST BACK TRACK AND POST THINGS ACCORDING TO THE WEEKS SINCE I HAVE VISUALLY DOCUMENTED EVERYTHING SINCE DAY ONE OF MY ARRIVAL.
RIGHT NOW, I'M IN THE CAFFE BENE COFFEE SHOP AND DROWNING OUT MY SURROUNDING BY LISTENING TO:Medtner Sonata Op.25 No.2 ''Night Wind'' I'VE FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW I WILL BE MANAGING MY FREE TIME IN KOREA. AND YES, IT TOOK AT LEAST 16 WEEKS FOR ME TO FIGURE THIS OUT. INITIALLY, I WAS TRYING TO FIT AS MANY WEEKENDS HEADING OVER TO SEOUL AND TRYING TO COVER A CERTAIN AREA ON MY SATURDAYS. BUT THAT ITSELF WAS TIRING AND AT TIMES STRESSFUL.
EVER SINCE I'VE GOTTEN HERE, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CRAM WHAT I CAN ON THE WEEKENDS. THEN IT WAS TRYING TO EXPLORE ON SATURDAYS WITH GROCERY SHOPPING AT THE END OF MY SATURDAY AND DO HOUSEHOLD WORK SUCH AS CLEANING MY APARTMENT ON SUNDAYS.THESE DAYS, I'VE DECIDED THAT I JUST NEED TO SPREAD OUT MY EXPLORATIONS AND ACTUALLY ENJOY DAYLIGHT WHILE I CAN. I START WORK AT 3PM, WHICH MEANS THAT I NEED TO GET READY AROUND 1PM.
AND UP UNTIL LAST WEEK OR SO, I'VE BEEN SLEEPING IN UNTIL I HAD TO GET UP. THAT DEFINITELY NEEDS TO CHANGE. I'M HOPING TO MAKE MY MORNINGS PRODUCTIVE WITH LEARNING KOREAN VIA MY TABLET WHILE I'M GETTING READY. OR PERHAPS STARING AT SOMETHING RELATED TO LEARNING KOREAN WHILE I'M STILL IN BED, REFUSING TO GET UP. WHY WOULD I WANT TO STAY IN BED? IT IS THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE BED I'VE EVER SLEPT ON. I STILL HAVE TO SLEEP ON THIS THING UNTIL MID OCTOBER!
I DID BUY THE MOST COMFORTABLE BLANKET THOUGH!
