gambay!
so last night we went out for bens birthday again. for some reason he is special and gets three days of celebrations. last night we went to a friend of his bar. we walk up to the door and see the sign, 'business club'. for those of you who don't live in korea and don't know what a business club is, it's a place where businessmen come to, um, enjoy the company of beautiful korean women. there are seperate little rooms, with big tvs too that you can use to sing karaoke. so a big group of us went, and the owner had some free drinks for us there (bottles actually). we sang, rocked out for a few hours when she brings in her best customer. he makes a big speech in broken english about how he wants us to go back to our foreign countries and say that korea is number one. he then offers to pay for everything for us that night. at least hundreds of dollars of stuff. we're a big fan of his.
after that we head downtown to do some dancing. i don't know what it is with koreans and smoke machines but i can't escape them in this country. it's really becomming annoying.
tomorrow is my first day at the other branch. i'm gonna miss the one i was just at, but change is always a good thing. well, not always.. but sometimes. i work monday and tuesday, then have wednesday to sunday off for chuseok. last year for chuseok i went to pusan and had a great time. this year i'm going to beijing, and am sure i'll have an even better time. i mean, it's china!

wooo smoke machines! The had about three hundred setup in U of T on the weekend and you couldn't see more than a foot in front of you. There was so much fog it made a little localized rain cloud.
Unfortunately it was dark enough that my flash would go off and you know what happens with high beams and snow, well I have some completely white pictures I can show you.
i was just checking out parkenglish.com and couldn't get over how crazy dvd rooms sounded on one of their pages about entertainment in sk. i hit up google to learn more, and your blog came up as one of the results.
i'm sort of vaguely looking into teaching english overseas in a very marginal hemming and hawing sort of cowardly way- sounds like you're having a great experience with it! this makes me think i should perhaps stop being such a wuss and start actually applying and see what comes of it.
any advice to pass along a la which companies to look to to get myself set up? there are just so many of them out there, and I don't know anyone who's doing this already who I could go ask :/
i *heart* the internet and the ways in which it helps me talk to strangers :)
