I realize I haven't been very good at updating this very much. Sorry.
This past weekend was great. We visited two museums and ate really good Italian food. I also saw my first accident here. Well, I didn't actually see the accident, just the damaged cars. It's surprising there aren't more accidents here given that their driving is crazy. I don't think stop signs exist, red lights seem to be optional and u-turns are a completely normal part of driving on almost any road here. They use their horns a lot and I really think South Korea must be one of the biggest consumers of brake pads.
That night we went to a few bars to watch the South Korea and Greece world cup game. It was a lot of fun to watch with the Koreans. They really get into their soccer here.
Oh, I forgot about Friday. Friday after school I went to eat with some of the other teachers. And to the batting cages. That was great. I haven't hit a baseball in a while but it is definitely a good way to release stress. And dinner was great. The food here is so good, but so much spicier than I expected. I usually need tons of water for one meal and my mouth is usually still on fire.
Sunday I hung out in my apartment for most of the morning. I did get my TV moved with the help of Jacob(and by help, I mean I watched him do it). But it's so much better now because I can use my desk! Great. Then we went to the baseball game. I love sports here because they are the same in any language. We ran into a couple from the other campus and sat with them along the 1st base line. Here, you buy food and bring it into the stadium to eat. I got a box of fried chicken, and some of the parts weren't ones that I could exactly name. Oh well, it tasted good. The game was great, I love baseball games! And there was a lot of good energy. It rained though, I could've done without that part.
I just realized what time it is. I need to get ready for work!!
