We took the kindergarten kids to a germ awareness thinger. One of the displays, pictured here, is of a man. You crawl in his mouth, through his body, then slide out his ass into a pile of poo (not pictured). F'ed up.

Endings and Beginnings

This school year comes to an end tomorrow so I took some pictures of my class and a few other things. I'll keep most my students so it isn't all that tragic. Not only that but my worst kid (by far) is leaving... bonus! Click the picture below to check out the pictures.

Wax Museum

I went to a wax museum. Kinda lame but I took pictures anyway. Click the awful alien below. How much worse could it get?

More touristy goodness.

I visited Seoul Tower and took some pics of the city. Click the image below to see them.

Korean Killer

Many Koreans believe that sleeping with a fan blowing in your face will kill you. Read about it!

More pics in Seoul

I've added a couple new pics of things in Seoul. I think I'm going to make just one set for those from now on. Click the pic below to see them.

The up and up.

I got paid for my first week of teaching so I'm no longer broke. Yay! I won't get paid again for a month so I need to make it last. I suppose I could head down to Itaewon, the touristy area of town, and find a bank machine that'll let me make a withdrawl from my canadian bank account... it's only a 40 minute subway ride from me. The subway here is really nice. It's clean, just like 99% of Koreans on the subway. I never feel unsafe, so that's cool.

Yesterday was really nice, the sky was actually blue rather than the usual murky grey. I wish I had some pictures. Yesterday I finally got a rack to dry my clothes on, which is starting to make my apt feel complete. I took some pictures of my apt now that it has that trademark lived in/messy look.


Today it actually snowed, in fact it is still snowing. I took some pictures of that as well. People were walking around with umbrellas and I thought that was pretty funny until a big clump of snow fell from something above me and landed squarely on my head. I thought someone had thrown a snowball at me. Anyway, lesson learned: don't have internal dialogues about silly korean culture. Heh. People were still driving their motorcycles on the sidewalks, even though the sidewalks were super icy.



Today I also started my first private lesson. I'm teaching business men english. They manufacture some sort of medical equipment. They're all perverted. We mostly talked about underwear and women.

I'm walking over and hour a day now, to class, from class, anywhere I go. My body was not used to this when I first got here. The first couple days, I thought my feet would fall off. Now I can walk all day. I think I'm losing weight as a result as well. Coooool. I'm curious to know what happened to my feet that they don't hurt anymore. Is it scar tissue or calices?

Anyway, enough ramblings for now. Check out my new pictures.
