Week 3

Another week down! It definitely does seem to be getting easier.  This week we got our Alien Registration Cards....I'm officially an Alien mwahahahahahaahahah.  Anywho, it's Friday night and we went out to dinner again with our coworkers, it's definitely nice to have that free meal Friday nights, I hope we're not supposed to be treating everyone or something.  Tonight we had a seafood thing that was octopus or something in that family, I wasn't overly crazy about it but it came with some really yummy noodles on top that I ate up. Mike liked the octopus more than me but thought the noodles were too spicy.  Oh yea, we got a cell phone today but it didn't work for some reason, so our manager took it back and hopefully it will work on Monday when he gives it back to us.  AND we got a bank account.  No money in it yet but it's all set up and we got ATM cards and everything.  There is a fee if you use your card after 4pm and I'm assuming other banks as well but who knows.  They also have this thing called a bank book that you need if you loose your ATM card or need to do a transaction with a teller.  Tomorrow morning we are meeting up with the Canadian guy we met at the bar last weekend.  We are going to Busan and going to see a baseball game.  I hear they are just as crazy here as in NY about baseball.  It might rain and we might get a yellow dust storm (hence the yellowish colored writing, hehe) I sure hope not though.   Either way it will be good to get out and see Busan.  Oh yea, tonight we bowled I'm just as bad in South Korea as I am at home. I thought changing countries would help but bowling but for anyone that is wondering about that....it doesn't work, at least not for me! Ok, well then folks it off to bed for me.....ttfn!

You get free meals every Friday? Who does pay for it? Hope the weather stays nice for the baseball game - how far is Busan? Have fun:) MAW Caroline

i would just like to say for those who are willing to date ourselves, this "thing called a bank book" was what we all had when we had a bank account. i don't know what it will be used for when you use it, but for the old foggies, it was so the bank could "stamp" the book with the transaction amount (plus or minus) and the new balance. you'll have to use it just to let us all know

I guess I'm older than I think. I remember those bank books! Teaching is pretty frustrating no matter where you are. At least you are somewhere cool!
