Monday night/Tues am early!!!

Wow...I just discovered something. I just saw Orion in the sky!!!!! I didnt think it would be here too! I thought it might be flipped over or something..but it's the same way! (Orion the constellation that is!)
How incredible the creator is! The planets seem a bit brighter here though... I'm looking for the big dipper next! Who knows. Man...how huge the universe is and how small we really are.

So today John, the other teacher came in. He seems to be a nice enough guy from Great Birtain with a great accent! Heh. He's from Liverpool I believe. A young chap.. sorry...had to say it. ('chap'). So we went out with some of his mates which was a good time. Went to a fabulous restaraunt downtown that was impressive! Designers...I've got pictures coming. Wowzers. A thought occurred to me here as well...the slate floors that come from China that I ordered before.....are from RIGHT HERE! And no waiting for major shipping here! Cool.

I've got a cold, and I've lost my voice tonight. I wonder how that's going to go tomorrow. Hmmm..

So I leave for Japan finally on Wed night I believe. Go for Thursday, and return on Friday. I stay at a hotel in Fukuoaka, Japan, and come back Friday am. Woohooo! Then I might go to Seoul on Friday from Busan hopefully. Not sure. I'd really like to go hook up with Candice, but that is money providing.
Shim (the school director) offered to give me an advance, so I think I'll be taking him up on it. But just to survive. The point of me being here is to SAVE some money!! I think I might be able to do that from the shopping point of view for clothes...cuz none of them really fit me. So that's a good thing..I think. Now electronics can be another issue!

I went to look at the LG store to see the prices. A laptop sells for starting at 800,000 won which is about $800 to $2000. A desktop is around the same. Ya that sounds ok to me. A digital camera that is 7.1 pixels and 256 MB card and a 2.5 LCD screen is about $500. Yep. MP3 player is around $100 for a good quality one. So If you want some electronic thing, and you don't mind a bit of Korean jibberish on the side on it...then let me know! I'll try to get it labeled in English before I send it out! Teehee!

K...I gotta get my zzzzz's. Gotta keep on top of my health! Gnite all...it's good to be from Canada ;) I do wish I brought more Canadiana souveniers or at least lots of stuff with Canadian flags on it. And I KNEW I should have brought maple syrup! They dont have it here..and it was the first thing that Shim mentioned about Canda! They all seem so impressed about it. Dammit.....oh welll. When I come back for a holiday or something:)

It's a good feeling to know that we all sleep under the same stars ;)

Comment Hey Wendy, I think that it is sooo cool that you are keeping this electronic diary. It makes me want to go on an adventure of my own. I was curious about your bathroom.... LOL. I was trying to imagine from your description and it sounds very interesting. Could you post a pic of it? LOL My my, asking about bathrooms. LOL Well it sounds like Korea would be the place for me, considering my short stature. *smile* I look forward to reading more of your adventures. With lots of love, Steina
