Long Over Due

Its been away too long since I wrote.  I guess I forgot about it for awhile since I've adapted to the life here in Korea.  I've picked up some extra classes to teach for some more cash.  With the korean Won being so weak right now, anything will help.  I went to Japan last weekend and that trip was amazing.  The food, the people, and the lifestyle is superior to that of Korea.  With that said, I am happy in Korea.  Weekdays here are starting to get less exciting since I've done most of the entertainment at least twice now.  Playing pool, going out to eat, and drinking are pretty much the options on the weekdays.  The weekends consists of going to eat and then out to a foreigners bar such as Benchwarmers, Tombstone, Beer Mart, and Purple Haze.  All of which are fun bars from time to time but can get repetitive much like the bars back home.  Regardless, there are many more places around Ulsan that I can visit on the weekends.  I figured I will take my time and spread those trips out over the year span.  I've found a place to play basketball but I am finding a hard time getting too excited about it.  The hoops and the style of play is boring.  I also found a gym right outside my apartment for $35/month.  That would give me something to do for an hour after work.  

For now, everything is starting to settle in.  I am slowly learning the language but I feel like I am behind schedule on what I wanted to achieve.  The language is hard and with all the extra classes I am getting, it is taking time away from my learning.  Seoul this weekend to visit my father.
