Things are going quite splendidly since my last life update. I had a really good week with a day off on Wednesday where I went to Jagalchi market and saw some really gross stuff and some really awesome stuff. Stuff being numerous products of the sea. I went up to Seoul to see my guest of honour onto her shuttle bus to the airport back home. We stayed at a lovely Hilton Hotel on her dime and it was the best sober sleep I've had since I've been here. Sadly, we had to leave at 5am. I took a bus to Pohang (and the city's AMAZING field) where I played 3 intense games of ultimate. We lost two in universe point (overtime) but I felt I left it all on the field despite getting overly intense due to some opponents squabbling over bullshit things. We let the games get away from us but hopefully we'll redeem ourselves in the playoffs which are 3 weeks away, where hopefully we don't beat ourselves. I'm currently downloading the free trial of Microsoft Office so I can lesson plan at home and not have to deal with the nuisance that is selecting effects and transitions in Korean.
I've received my renewal contract and will compare and contrast it (in typical middle school fashion) with my old one. I doubt there will be any changes but a long time ago I applied to a camp job in the States and their contract had a bullet that went something like this: "If by any chance camp is cancelled be it under-funding, weather catastrophe, or acts of God staff will [blah blah blah]" I doubt that could happen but maybe "in the case of anticipated events" will but plugged in somewhere.
Either way, I'm really excited about the month of May. Summer is fast approaching and I CAN'T WAIT! I have these snap-button shirts that you can karate-chop open; a favourite thing for... guys... but maybe that'll switch over this year. Especially if I keep working out. I'm getting nice and nestled in these routines despite the little bump in the road. The FSL course I've enrolled in starts tomorrow which is another thing to keep me busy and out of trouble. After going to university I'm used to having that voice in my head saying "there's always something to do for school" and I'm trying to keep that up with this course and continue my lifelong learning. Fingers crossed this isn't a path to burning out. Busan's great and it's only going to get better in these next couple months.
