Every day is a fresh start.

I'm getting more "accustomed" to the
Korean atmosphere. I was at Starbucks tonight
and met a really cool girl then went drinking with
her and a group of friends! I'm starting to meet
really quality and open minded people! Even the
guy and I had almost exact same taste in bars,haha.
If you've been to Korea or know anything about
beer then you know that CASS is horrific, not
even deserving to be called beer. So we went to
one bar and found that they only had Cass pitchers,
totally "dame dame" (since we "strongly dislike" Cass)
We then went to a diff. bar named Hobok which was
awesome (for a Mon. night haha). Korea has nightlife,
the US doesn't DUH!! The US needs to learn from Asian
countries and wake UP at night, other than NY and SF
which have a semblance of nightlife. Yes I need to
put pics of friends and actual ppl instead of boring
scenery shots, and I will I promise, I've just been
studying (not enough but working on it) and waiting
for opportunities to find real friends. WOW
I just had to write about this tonight since through
the cultural ups and downs its experiences like this
that I live for. じゃまた。

Wow...

A lot has happened in the last week.
Classes are all the same...I'm glad it's getting colder
so I won't fall asleep. Living in Asia is definitely my
thing. I'm so done with the lack of overall atmosphere
in the US. No tolerance anymore. I graduate. I leave.
That's how I feel and think due to the culmination of
experiences and evolution of my thinking from experiences
abroad. Everyone should live where they feel comfortable,
and though I don't feel "at home" in Korea, I enjoy the
atmospheric vibe and nightlife. I've told most Koreans,
and the enlightened ones agree, Korean guys NEED FASHION,
as in they're TOTALLY lacking it in general, AHHHH
GET RID of the Lego mori!!! My god..... The guys I hang
out with are

I haven't gotten a part-time job yet. I need one. It's
expensive here, especially if you want to have a nightlife.
'Nuff said. Let's see...it's the "time to cut back and chill
without blowing $$ time ;)" It's not my style to have $$
flowing out with nothing replacing it. Being abroad is the
best learning experience. I've told people countless times it's
more valuable to go abroad than to sit in a classroom for 100 hours
that is in my case, real-life experience is far more valuable
since how much of your college courses will you really remember?

Wholesome time spent with friends where everyone has an awesome
experience is worth a million hours of multiple mediocre
experiences. I think my English ability to cohesively construct
complex sentences is disentegrating. O yea..I need to put up
more pics!! With PEOPLE that is. And I will, I'm in the
acquiring mode still. Put some comments of what you wanna see
picture wise or hear about regarding my experiences here!!!

Leaps and Bounds

A lot has happened since the last post.
I'm pretty connected into my school now,
still looking for the AIESEC club though.

I have connections for tutoring now and
can easily make $35/hr and up, WAY better
than in the US, forget working in the US...
Korea is what I call a "ripe market" for
teaching. I wanna pay off credit cards and
make $$ for traveling to Taiwan in winter ;)

I want to maximize my opportunities here,
which are much greater than in the US. The
funny thing about korea, rather torturous thing
actually is what I call kabo kami, or lego head
hairstlye, EVERY time I see it a brain cell dies,
extremely painful to watch. It was started by a
singer, anyways hope it passes SOON.

Meanwhile in Hasuk Jip and love hotel land it's
pretty quiet where I live, now I know the shortcuts
to school, cutting through quiet back alleys, yay!

My first interview is at 6PM, 1.5 hrs from now.
I say it's about time I bankroll it. Time to become
an Abgujung yuppie haha!
