tid bit on SK

South Korea, eh? I'm here, guys. I got here on Wednesday evening, the 26th. Mr. Kang met me at the airport and loaded me onto the bus to Ori Station. The ride took about an hour, hour and a half. It was a nice ride; SK is pretty.

When I got to Ori Station, I was to wait for the Director to pick me up. Forty five minutes later two women pull up in a car and ask if I was Sophia. "Yes." "How long have you been waiting?" "Not long, maybe 10 minutes." Haha. Anyways, these ladies were not the director. The director had personal things to attend to and they were from another school. They took me to my hotel and checked me in and got me settled. They were super nice. I asked if the hotel had internet, turns out Love Hotels do not have internet, but they do have Korean porn on channel one. ...Sweet? So, I decided to set off in search of an internet cafe (pee ssee bahng). It took me about forty fiveminutes to find this cafe that was located around the corner from the hotel. Ha, sweet. After that, I went to bed because the director was to pick me up at 10 the next morning to take me to school.

So, the next day (Thursday) I spent the day at the school. It's super cute. Five stories high and tiny. When walking towards it, you are also walking towards apartment buildings and compared to the apartments, the school looks teeny and sort of out of place. My main class is on the fourth floor and then I will be switching rooms, as well as classes as the day continues. I followed my predecessor around all day. His name is Lachlan and he's been here for 15 months. He's from Australia and will be doing a bike trip from Korea to China, down through China and into Vietnam. Pretty sweet. Anyways. So, I wrote that like a week ago. Fast forward in time to June 9th. That's today. :)

This is, so far, my third week of being in the country. It's pretty sweet. I've been crazy busy. I've experienced Korean bbq, which is DELICIOUS. Korean beer, which ain't too bad, and Soju. I've experienced a bit of Seoul, which I absolutely love. It's gorgeous! I've been at school every weekday til 530, super busy with this schedule, but I love it! The kids are too cute. I will try to upload pictures as soon as I take some! It's been a whirlwind so far and I honestly can't believe it's been this long. The time has flown. People are so nice here! I've met a bunch of foreigners. It's crazy how big the foreigner community is, I really didn't expect it! One night, there was a big group of 20 or so white people walking through the streets to go to the bar. It was pretty entertaining. But yea. This was just a post to let you know I'm still alive. I've decided that I'm going to need to set a time every week or so to set down and write. So yea. Hopefully I can do that. I want to tell you all about my time spent in Seoul! It's gorgeous and I can't wait to go back up. I might go Saturday by myself! :) I love it, seriously. It's great. I feel so lucky.

Oh! I've got an appointment at the hospital on Saturday for my blood tests! Sweet. And I got a new phone. It's super fancy! I've never had a phone like this before! Touch screen and everything! WOWZAS. I feel SUPER DUPER lucky!!!
