After planning for about a year, I finally made it to Korea! I'm living in a small city called Hwajeong, which is supposed to be about 40 minutes from Seoul on the subway. I haven't tested that yet, but probably will tonight! This city must be very small, because there is no traffic noise on my side of town. There are lots of trees, too. I'll post lots of pictures when I find a better internet connection. (I won't have internet in my apartment until I get my alien registration card.)
My apartment is alright. I think it's actually smaller than the living room of my small Montrose apartment, but I don't plan on spending much time there, anyway. Now, if I can just figure out how to turn the hot water on...
I met my co-teacher yesterday, and she seems very nice. She was concerned about leaving me alone for the weekend, but I told her I'd be fine. My friend is meeting me tonight. We're going to dinner and then into Seoul if I'm still awake. (Jet lag is rough, and I can't drink coffee because of my health check on Tuesday!)

so, what type of alien will you be registering as?
ReplyDeleteThe Adventure begins!
ReplyDeleteI would like to know three things:!
ReplyDelete1. When do you start teaching?
2. How many hours a day do you teach?
3. Mathew wants to know if you can see mountains...
Missed you at softball today. We lost our last game.
Look at my new pillow!

Dad, as a well-behaved alien, of course.
ReplyDeleteLindsay,
1. I start tomorrow, Tuesday.
2. I don't know, but it looks like I'll be in the classroom 22 hours a week.
3. I saw lots on the way to my apartment, but haven't seen any from my city yet. I haven't explored much other than buying stuff for my apartment yet, though.
That is a crazy pillow. I could not sleep on that. I'd be up all night craving cupcakes.
I miss y'all!
Darn you two! Now I am craving cupcakes! But we just moved the last box into the new house and haven't gone grocery shopping.
ReplyDeleteKatherine, as soon as you figure out your address send it to me so I can start writing letters.
AH! Real monsters!
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it safe!
I missed your call twice! I was on the phone! Oh no!
