hopefully 2 more weeks
so, nothing has been planned yet.. but that's the way of korea it seems..
on a side note, some kid set off fireworks in our hallway.. the foreign teachers are the only ones to have any kind of reaction.. but again, that's the way of korea..
this weekend everyone i know and their mother is going to something called mudfest.. it's basically a huge party, on a beach, with mud.. it actually sounds pretty fun, but i want something slower paced.. at least something a little more relaxed that sleeping muddy on a muddy floor with 28 of my muddy friends.. the peer pressure to go is enormous though, and though i love the feeling of being wanted, i want to hike a frickin mountain! plus there's always next year.. i only have 2 weekends left until my holiday so i should do something somewhat cultural.. at least that's how i'm justifying it.. plus it's good to save money.. and then the next weekend i'm gonna try to head to seoul
anyways, off to eat some pizza with the co-workers!
peeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaccccccccccccccccccceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
oh and by the way.. i've decided not to bring any souveniers home.. i'm staying for another year, and i started thinking about what to buy for some people, but then didn't want to exclude anyone.. so i'm your present.. deal with it! if you complain i'm going back to korea, crying, with my tail between my legs.

But you've got to bring me kimchi!
Just stick it in some tupperware, I'm sure you can get it through customs.
what? with my luck the would spill and i'd have clothes that smelt of kimchi for weeks to come.. i'm coming back to canada to ESCAPE that smell..
Fine fine, but you should probably try and bring a small bottle of soujo for some pre-drinking.
if you're bringing soju - i want some!!! you can't get any at the lcbo over here. you can buy it at korean eateries for 3x the price - i'm too poor :(
by the way, i'm in toronto beginning july 27th. i'll email you the details (number, address, etc.). hope to see you there!
i will do my best to bring back soju.. i wonder how much i can bring without having to declare it?
i went to a tourist area in seoul named insadong - i found some soju in decorative bottles and called them gifts. i didn't get any questions bringing a few of those over. the bottles never really advertized the fact they were filled with soju - who knows.
no worries though little lady, if you can't, that's not a problem either. it'll be nice to see you - with soju or without soju! i'll just pass out if i drink too much of that stuff anyway...
if you do end up going to seoul - email my friend myung ohk. she'll show you a good time. her and i have kept in good touch. she's pretty funny - really kind of crazy and wild! her email address is (kwarib at naver.com). i seperated her email address to advoid spam.
thanks babe, i don't know if i'll make it to seoul before i get back here, but i'll definitely smuggle a couple bottles of soju in for us.. it might not be fancy but it will do the trick!
