Okay, so maybe not triumphant. I have my affairs somewhat in order now, so I’ll write about the last few months (ha!).
Since the last post, I resigned one position and began another, and moved to the middle of nowhere. I like the job itself much more. I think I’m hitting it off with my coworkers better than I did at my last job, and everything seems to be going well. It’s a mom and pop hogwan, so things aren’t as organized as they could be. However, I’m getting nothing but positive feedback, and I am greeted every workday with a hearty “Did you lunchee?”
My apartment is nowhere near as awesome as the last one, but at least there is no mold in it. It’s brand new, and other apartments in the building are still under construction. This, combined with my 2 pm start time, leads to some strange wakeup times for me. Korean construction workers pick odd hours to start working, and even odder ones to have loud arguments while chainsmoking immediately outside my door.
I was without the internet in my home for about a month, which many of you know gave me visible tic.
I made one very boring trip to Fukuoka for my passport. Otherwise, I’m grumpy and don’t feel like writing much else. Welcome back to reading about my life, which is pretty mundane.
