JIm Jae Bong.. library exams.. boxing and shoes.
April 21, 2008
Yesterday was interesting day. The day was long.. and I got my first paycheck from teaching English. It was 360 dollars..and I didnt even teach much yet. I met with my prospective students and introduced my material. I must have really impressed the parents because sooner than i knew it they were dishing out money.. the classic arrangement to make sure i would not go elsewhere. I met with Jung Yoon.. and bought her a cake to show some appreciation. Riding the bus here to Doo .. whatever is kinda difficult.. but something I have to figure out if I want to teach. Afterwards.. I studied.. and sooner than not I met up with this guy named Jason.
We went to a Jim Jae Bong.. basically a hot room for a lot of Korean people.. who were naked. And staring at me.. But I was already used to that.. It was really refreshing to sit in the hot baths and soak up the soothing aromas. Afterwards we went downstairs and sat in the jim jae bongs.. pretty much huts that are heated by fires.. there we got in and out soaking up the heat and sweatign like pigs. The girls Tiff and Elise were also there..and we sat together and ate and talked. It was interesting seeing the interaction amongst the people.. I felt like an observer time and time again. Yup.. we spent the night there..and all night long I could see Korean people staring at me.. it was no shock again.. but again I am sure because I am a handsome guy.. because they usually smiled @ me and girls were looking a lot more than guys.
I left around12pm.. headed back to my dorm and was knocked out. Afterwards I ate lunch @KLI met up w/ a few friends and went to Korean class for which i was totally unprepared for. I have my first KLI test tomorrow.. so I must get ready for that. I pray God will always bring me peace and help me in my endeavors. He is my peace. Love to all. . love to all.
