Out, About and the Daily Grind
It has been far too long since I've last posted. This is most likely due to the fact that the weekends are full of random adventures and the weeks are full of long days and lazy, lazy nights. Not a bad life. The strange thing though, is that today when I went out to run errands (recharge my cell phone which is less than $10 a month, and pick up some things for special 'pepero day' dinner) I hardly even felt like I was in Korean (or any other foreign country for that matter). Things have become so routine here. And not routine in a bad way at all. I just knew exactly where I needed to go, in order to do exactly what I needed to do. No more guessing where I could find some brie cheese or fretting over the fact that I wouldn't be able to communicate what I needed to cell phone guy. I just simply went about my business.
School has become routine as well. I know exactly what Monday means and exactly what a Wednesday will bring (oh terrible Wednesday and the 'white' hairs that you give me). Each week more or less the same things happen and soon enough it is the glorious weekend again. Speaking of grey hairs, the other day Juliet found 12 on my head. Sam offered to pluck them out in exchange for 500 won (which is like .50). I refused his offer and he was fairly upset. He didn't speak the rest of class which actually wasn't a bad thing at all.
Anyways here are few of my favorite pictures from the last couple weeks. They include trips to Seoul Tower, a hike in the huge Bukhansan park right outside the city, and finally the zoo in Seoul Grand Park. Oh and of course pictures of the Halloween celebration at school. Far too cute even if I did get swarmed a couple times for being in charge of the candy. Each kid was only allowed one lollipop each....what kind of Halloween is that?
