If a Picture is Worth a Thousand Words Here's 4,000 Words


















I just got a couple pics - thought I might share them with you.
The first is from a Korean barbecue restaurant I went to with all the teachers after the speech competition at our school. We are sitting on the floor - not as comfortable as you may think. The green bottles are Soju. I'm not sure exactly what Soju means in Korean, but if I had guess I would guess it means, "shitty vodka." It's the liquor of Korea and when drunk in copius amounts it will make you go crazy and give you an insane hangover the next day. Go Korea!
The second picture is of me and two of the other foreign teachers, Dee from Vermont and Deidre from South Africa.
The third is a picture of me on my first night here. I had been awake for well over 24 hours. Some of the teachers took me out to dinner and drinks then we went a commons area at the university that is right by our apartments and continued drinking there. I was pretty dis"orient"ed. I was totally out of it and getting my first exposure to the Korean people. What was he talking about? Your guess is as good as mine.
The fourth is me with two of the Korean teachers from my school, Neo and Joy. Good people.
Hopefully there will be more to come as soon as I get a camera of my own.
It's been six days since the North has tested nuclear bombs - things are looking up.

Love from Seoul
