Folk Village

This wnesday the 15th of november we cramed our asses (9 adoptees one malaysian, two teachers and one bus driver) in a buss with 50 seats... Wate of resources you say, spacey I say..

Anyway the folk village was located 40 minutes from Seoul, if this doesn't say you anything, GImhae is about 5 hours from Seoul. So I seized this opportunity and went to Seoul..

Anyway the folk village was kind of boring. not fun at all, boring boring boring... I't like a gigantic pleace kill me now I'm so bored place... Well the highlights were two girls jumping up and down on wood board (in Swedish it's called gungbrada).

we was there for about 6 hours 1 would have been enough....

Peppero day 빼빼로

So the 11 november is a holiday invented by LOTTE (a company that practically owns everything in Korea), Peppero day.... Peppero is a long bredstick dipped in choclate, for thos of you who knows what Pocky is, peppero is the same thing but Korean name...

I've been dreading for this holiday for about a week, since I have a relationship and no idea what to do on this special holiday, I began to ask people. However everyone had a diff rent opinion on what to give, and not to give. In the end I was left alone...

So in the end I gave and made her some things it took me forever to make it but I think she was happy... I really hope she is...

Anyway we went on a date to the Jimjiriban, and we stayed there for two nights. It really changed my opinion of the jimjiriban, it might have been because I was with her this time and not alone ^^

peace out!

It's a beatiful day/days

Well yesterday was amazing and today was amazing. Why? 미혜 anyway It was great we went to pusan yesterday and I got to see some really intresting stuff near Hyundae (think the spelling is wrong). Hyundae is a big big beach in Pusan.

We strolled around there for a while, just in time to see the moon rise over the water... If you ever go to the same place I was at don't go alone on the bridges, all the couples walking around there might make you sick (if you are single).

It took around 1.30hour to get there and the same time to get back. Even though it fel like a eternity when you stand up in a bus, with a mad busdriver....

After that we went for dinner we ate some Noodle soup kind of amazing I have to say. The owner seemed to love me very much, or that's the impression I got out of it.. . or maybe she was just mocking my bad Korean (I know almost no Korean)..

Later we saw a movie in a DVD room ***** that was amazing she hadn't seen Big Fish so I forced here to see it.. .SHe liked it I think.. .

Today was a amazing day to, even though 미혜 left today... We had fun we watched a Korean movie, had lunch etc. all in all a good weekend so far...
My roomate just called me and said I should go out and drink but I think I will pass on that today.. .

It all depends on a series of things. however I have a few options now and I don't know what to do...

Haircut

So today I had a nice haircut again, I'm going to cry when I go back to Sweden (whenever that might be) 4 dollars for a haircut that's a bargain...

Yeah and I failed my test so much.... crappy korean language...

http://www.inje.ac.kr/

Well If you want to see my girlfriend in movment go into http://www.inje.ac.kr/ and on the upper left of the page, press English, after that you will be directed to a new page. Scroll down on that page untill you see a button: INJE Video. Push that one and wait my girlfriend is the tennis player, you will see the most of her around 7.50 minutes in to the movie...

By the way the movie is propaganda for our school but it is really well made, it doesn't really look like that ^^

Hmm Random once again...

So I can't belive this I never ever in my life had this many mosquito bites... I don't know what wrong with the climate here, they just don't die.. I usually get an average of 4 bites a day here... and each bite itches for maybe 4 days... at least... I hat that, my feets are full of scratch marks...

Another thing that's really starting to show is the fattigue of the students and there studying. I'm so happy that I don't really have a midterm, that's compareble to theirs...

Hmm what else this last week has been rather boring nothign special really happened.

Midterms, study rooms=many Koreans

So next week is midterms here at INJE, that basicly means that everyone is studying their asses of... instead of studying 12 hours a day (most Koreans do that), they study 16-18 hours a day now instead. One can really wonder how good that is for the body...

It's kind of funny seeing people falling asleep in funny places, cafe,s study rooms, benches, etc. If you read about hte Jimjiriban part, you know that they can sleep on stone, so they can sleep anywhere...

Hmm other intresting things that have happened is that we visited a army base yesterday (monday). It was kin of intresting... We talked about North Koreas nuclear tests and how that affected the millitary... The anwser was no we already knew that something like this might happen. It also seems that the media blows the whole thing up. The average Korean doesn't seem to giva a shit about it actually..

As my roomate said, Nobody cares...

Ah well my language class starts soon, followed by an amazing lunch (hopefully), then it's the most boring class of the week Korean culture...

Up the mountain, up the mountain....

So this saturday we went up a mountain, Koreans really love to go hikeing in the mountain... It was amazing in many ways, amazingly hard, amazing view, amzingly boring, amazing all in all.

It was very steep, for you who actully now the hill in Ljungskile called hallebacken (steep hill in Ljungskile). think of walking a steeper hill for 2 hours... your legs don't feel to good after that... However the Koreans I talked to said this is nothing... You should see the mountain at that place, bla bla bla... I don't know if that's nothing I don't want to be apart of it.

I had very expensive cat fish for lunch, it was awful... Never having that again...

Weekly summary...

So hmm some highlights of this week, my f***ing cold is actually gone, today was the first day of my cold free life.. How fair is that a cold that actually sits in for almost two weeks...

Hmm Eric the american fratboy (adoptee acts like he's 16 but he is really 23) had his birthday. He's been talking since day one how he,s going to black out on his birthday... When the day finally arrived this wensday, he wasn't even tipsy. I don't know if I talked about the subject before in my psots, but if you are in korea, you add one year to your age (usually can be more) so if you are born in 1984 you are in fact 23. I don't know why you just do it... As my roomate said: Why do you want to learn? Just eat it!! (it's his answeres to my endless questions about the korean language).

Anemaes boyfriend magnus went back home to Sweden after one week or maybe it was some more days, anyway why pay so much money to come here, and not stay longer... I have no idea why, it's stupid to me.

Sven if you read this, I want you to know, Korea is the best place if you want to have a black belt quick, it takes about a year to get a black belt ^^

I counted my mosquitoe bites yesterday (thursday) I have 16 on my right foot for some reason... It's annoying, I think all in all I have about 40 mosquitoe bites. I'm really thinking if it was good not to take the shot for Japanese Encefalit (it's kind of hard to get, but not good if you get it and yes you get it from mosquitoes)...

The girl I'm intrested in seperated from her boyfriend, that's good for me...

Hmm this thursday we actually went to a concert a classical concert here in Gimhae. It was amazing for me because I really like that kind of music, some of the adoptees were complaining (like always). It was nice to be in a concert hall for a change, good seats and good music. Something diffrent from our regular nights at ET either in the lounge (watching a movie). Or me laying in my bed curseing to anyone who wants to hear about unfair love etc...

So this summary would take us untill about today or rather thursday night maybe 01.00 (something) . I really tried my best to study to a Korean language test that we were supposed to have on friday (by the way I failed, so much... It's not my fault that they made a language no one can understand... )... Yeah I tried to study it didn't go to well because I was thinking on somone else every 3-5 minutes (yeah you guys no who I'm talking about). Since my body doesn't work as it should when I'm in love, it shuts down, becomming a useless lump of crap...


Anyway I fell asleep around 02.00 (something). I got a phone call (around 03.00 I was sleeping) from the girl and she says bla bla bla, hmm we can't see eachother tomorrow, my friend can't join us. (You guys don't know what I'm talking about, we were supposed to meet on friday, me the girl I like, plus her friend, long story short.)..

Some of you might think, you go man, you can be alone with her, the whole day of tomorrow. I don't work that way, in my fucked up state of newly awoken, I say hmm that's to bad, bla bla bla... luckily for yours truly, her phone gets fucked up and the call gets interrupted. So I can actually process what she said to me... My friend couldn't come with us...... after repeating that in my head 10 times... I see the potential of what she was actually saying...
Even more lucky for me she callse me back after 3 minutes. I ask her if she still wants to meet, and she says: Yes ofcourse I want to meet you (I'm not surprised really, I mean who wouldn't want to meet me? (^0^)V). awhile later I fall asleep high on dopamins... I wake up around 07.00 (calling her again), after a steady breakfast consisting on nothing I go to write my test..... As I mentioned before I failed it... So I have a homework big as a house untill monday.

Anyway I was supposed to meet the girl (Mye Hye) at 구보 station (Guppo) 11.45 I was thiking I had all the time in the world around 10.45 I realized two things, I don't know where Guppo station is and I don't know how long time it takes to get there... I ran to the bus stop after that. I started to talk with a girl Juncha her English was amazing, she told me she never been abroad (i'm not sur I belive her though...).. Anyway she helped me get on the right bus and the right station (she was takeing the same bus as me). We talk about random things, she's a funny girl.

FF (fast forward) awhile.
We go to a place called Miryang and watch some amazing buildings and relics, I really enjoyed, or to be honest I proabably enjoyed the company and I don't really care were we are, but I did enjoy the scenery... If you're ever near Miryang do me a favour and go to the temples around there, it's well worth it.

All in all I had a great day with Mye Hye, I actually think we have a relationship now.... life is good.

FF again to this evening actually.
I come into my dorm with Mye Hye around 10.00 1 hour later people come into my room and start calling me on the internal phone... Do you have a girlfriend now??? For some reason somone saw us holding hands in Korea that means = couple. People have to much time on their hands at my dorm that's for sure...

Jimjiriban (I don't think the spelling is right)

So this weekend I went to Pusan (I was still sick) to celebrate Rob's birthday, and to see Anemaes boyfriend form Sweden. Well it was kind of okay, I guess it would have been so much better if I didn't have a certain someone on my mind all the time.

I hate hate being intoxicated (is that right spelling) by girls, because the way I work is that my whole system decides to go bye bye. Sleeping doesn't work, studying doesn't work, eating doesn't work either. Nothing works besides thinking on that girl... So that's what I did 95% of the time (the other 5% was thinking oh god I want to get rid of this cold)..

The club we went to it's name was Foxy something. The club was great or it would have been great but to me it sucked, I really didn't want to be there... anyway after the club the others 9 people went home I decided to stay in Pusan (Busan), I didn't want to go to a hotel, I heard about this public bathhouse called Jimjiriban, where you can actually sleep (many drunk people do that it's cheaper than a motel).

At the jimjiriban you cna take a bath and shower and take a sauna. it's really popular amongst older women, because they belive it's good to sleep in warm temperature. Anyway after I've taken a Shower I really wanted to sleep it was 05.00 in the morning. My friends had told me that you can get a blanket and something to sleep on.. In my case the blanket is more like a towel, and what you sleep on is actual a towel to... the pillow is rock hard, and the floor well that's heated stones... The thing about stone is that it's fucking hard... not like wood hard, it just hard. I couldn't sleep after one minute on one side, it hurt like hell, so u had to switch every minute. well it was actually mixed man and women, people lying everywhere in this huge room an amazing sight for someone who has never have seen it, however if you are tired and drunk, you don't want to see other people sleeping like babies. While u can't get a minute's sleep because of the constant pain, in all your bones, joints and everything else for that matter.

Sunday I spent alone I was supposed to spend it with my friend, but she had to take care of her grandfather. I spent many hours in this big department store called Lotte (really big....)

the time after that is for me to know and for you guys to find out... ^^

I'm sick

Well ofcourse it had to happen but sitll, I really have more important stuff than to be sick... I have a fever and a cold, I really hope that it will pass.

Now it's Chosuk here in Korea the biggest holiday of the year.. So every student from the University is going home to their parents. This week is probably going to be amazingly boring.. well I will survive...

Time Stop

This would be so awesome if I had this between 20.00-10.30 yesterday....

Sunday, October 01, 2006

WTFFCMFBCSW

Well when I first started this post it was about 03.30 or something I was so confused and brainhacked, and god knows what. For you people who actully read my posts, you know that I according to myself have major girl problems... I had to drop the post in the middle of writing and start over again... Why? read please...

Hmm to start of this post I will tell you abut my day. the day after MT me and my roomate decided to go to Pusan. Pusan is so big that's it's very frightening. I would get lost in an instant and never find my way back to my dorm. Maybe it's the lack of experiencing big cities... Either way I feel so insignificant...

Anyway it turned out that Sun didn't have anything to do so she called me and my roomate to see what we were up to. Naturally we offered her to tag along and so she did. we took bus number 8 from INJE to Pusan. The busdrivers in Korea seem to not fear instant death because they drive insanely, not giving a shit about people falling down, and speedlimits signs, no they don't see them.

The reason for going to Pusan was simple I needed T-shirts. It took me about 6 hours to find two that actually looked like shit. The reason for that is that Koreans think it's cold now. I can't see how 26-28 degrees celcius can be cold, but hey I didn't grow up here... Anyway so cloth stores actually only sell lon sleeved T-shirts and not short sleeved... I wanted short sleeved, but at last we actually found some...

After that we were on our way home, here I started to sms with Mye Hye... In my mind I had almost given up on her, because she said she had a boyfriend. Anyway we talked about random stuff untill I kind of got the feeling something was kind of wrong with her... or rather untill I said she was random in a sms (implying that she has a random behaviour) Around here all hell broke lose... She called me all kinds of diffrent things, I hope she was kidding, most of the curses were in Korean, my roomate asked me while translating WTF did you say?

Then she said blablablabla can't talk to you now I'm going to study (in reality she was drinking I think, I don't know all the details...)... FF (fast forward a couple of hours) she seds me this random sms: What are u thinking on. I anwsered: At the moment I'm thinking on you. I asked her what are you thinking on? She replied: I'm thikning about you.

Here I acutally began to wonder maybe we can have a good conversation so I asked her: Can I ask why did you think of me... She went in the opposite direction by saying NO.... Now I was kind of confused, thinking hmm okay I burned my bridges and killed my own men....

Then I went in a new direction saying, if you could be anywhere in the world right now, were would you be now? She replied, I don't understand... Language barriers suck... Anyway after some explaining she sent the sms I was waiting for, but never thought would come: If u decide I would be there (I know u guys might not have been exposed to bad English but I have for the last month I understand what she meant). Then I got a fast reply saying: I don't kow u recive my msg. if u do plz tell me ur beanyplace. My anwser was: Well I don't really care about the place as long as it is with you I'm happy.

She sent me this sms back: 장온다 Everyone was sleeping at this time so I couldn't ask anyone, but I think it is goodnight but I'm not sure.... so I just sent, you can't leave me like this. I'm in the computer room if you are awake you should come... 10 minutes later she came..

She asked me all kinds of questions.. why I was mean to her, etc, etc, etc. People who know me, know that I'm not mean by nature, I don't want to be mean. So I explained myself that I'm so sorry if I ever hurt your feelings bla, bla bla, bla.... But I knew you had a boyfriend, so I thought it was dead race anyway.. . (actually I didn't say this last part but, I was thinking it in my head)...
She said something that she was waiting for me to take action (here again I was thinking you had a boyfriend)... bla bla bla. then she seemed kind of angry and said, don't message me again (in my head I went, okay I'm screwd, but what did I do wrong...?) Anyway she said goodbye and marched out from the PC room. I was so confused, that I began my very negative post... 10 minutes into my post she came back and sat next to me...

I closed the post and she began to talk to her friends on CYWORLD (kind of like Lunarstorm but so much bigger). She was writing so much to her friends, in Korean... I talked to my friends in Swedish.. telling them how fucked up my life was...

Anyway she began to talk with me at first the conversation was really icy, from my side..
We talked for maybe 2 hours, I actually got some of my questions answered so I was happy. Anyway it all turned out great for m that is, however there's still some questions. what am I going to do for a week, the biggest holiday in Korea are comming up Chosuk and Koreans spend Chosuk with their families... So I won't see her in a week.. I wonder how this will develop now, it took a really unexpected turn... Well I will keep you updated..

Sorry for the short ending, but I rather have some things to myself.

At the moment I;m writing this I'm high on Dopamins (I think it's called that) and I'm sitting on a Internet Cafe and I haven't sleept yet and my class is in 1.30 hour. I even tried to hack Kame_sennins wow account, but I couldnt, I had to patch and didn't have the patience to do it...

Well anyway peace out ya all!

MT, and my life gets more messed up etc....

So yesterday at 6.00 (18.00) we gathered at building A (building a is kind of like a bus terminal on campus). Why? for MT (Membership Training) also called drink as much as you can. It's a kind of like a thing for the students to get to know eachother (however I've been here a month it should have been done sooner in my opinion).

We went to a lodging place 1.30 hours from INJE University. when we unloaded our busses (there were two of them because we were around 100 students) we emidiatly began to play games. If it had been in Sweden the normal way of doing it would be to drink liqour during the games, here in Korea you do it after all the embaressing games. We were divided into 10 teams I actually managed to be on the same team as the girl I'm intrested in, random luck or really bad?

FF (fast forward) to around 00.00, here we actually began to drink alot of beer. The funny thing is most of the people at our MT got very drunk on very little, wich was very fun. we played alot of drinking games like Bunny, bunny, bunny, bunny, 31, 3,6,9 and some other games... I will teach you guys at home the rules.

Anyway it was a amazing all in all night people drinking and having fun.

On the other hand the girl who acts in a very odd way to me, acted in a even more odd way tonight... I don't understand her 1% .... Newsflash I know she has a boyfriend somewhere, I don't know where. So why does she act like this towards me, or is it just who misunderstands everything? Maybe she only wants to be friends, that's okay, if she were clear about her intentions. However I asked her about her boyfriend one time like a week ago and she didn't anwser... (that's not ver clear, I found out about her boyfriend from another source).

Either way, I was sitting on the pavement talking to a Chinese girl, who pulled me down, because she said that it was to hard to look up, so I should sit next to her (something going lost in translation, or maybe she was/is in to me?)
Anyway we talked alot, and then suddenly the girl I like came by, sits on the other side of me (so if I'm number 2, the chinese girl is number one, and the girl I like is number 3 it's something like this 3 2 1). Ah whatever I don't have the patience to call them by numbers, the girl I like her name is Mye Hye, and the Chinese girl's name is Zhong Jia.

Mye Hye was acting really, really really odd, not drunk odd, just odd. she was very kinostethic (means touching), and sitting really close, fidling with my hair etc..... This I really take as an IOI (Indicator of intrest), but if she has a boyfriend I'm to good of a person to do anything, or untill she explains herself.. after 2-3 hours of this. and diffrent people, talking to us. she still didn't leave me (the chinese girl left after 5 minutes... ( we didn't have kino)...

Anyway, she then has a 1-2 hour long cellphone call with someone, I don't know who. I'm really going to give up this girl I guess, but I don't really want to... However I know that it will probably only give me misery if continue down on this path.... One of my friends, had a really fucked up thing goiong for him for 3 years or how long was it? It wasn't really worth it... So it's better to cut your losses, girls fuck you up (your head)...

FF next day, we didn't do much we ate, played some couple soccer, and did some random games. then after that we had a few hours of free time, I could have actually have gone with Mye Hye and some other adoptees, but I took my stand and said I have better things to do. (me VS Mye Hye 1-0) I went to sleep in the outdoors it was amazing, untill the security guy came and woke me up, and I htink he said I couldn't sleep there. So I went to another place to sleep it was amazing to, a bench in a secluded area...

Then we went home and by time it is somewhere around 16.30 something. I got of the buss at INJE and stood there if there was any counting the students or whatever. and who comes by and stands next to me and talks to me... Yeah of course it was Mye Hye.... We walked to our dorm, talking about random things, and then again she touches my hair... So we say goodbye in the entrance and leaves. I'm not sure who won the point this, time, but I don't think it was me...

The hell that is my life......

Random ramblings II

The day before yesterday was really intresting We had a band playing outside in the open, from 6.00-7.00 it was really nice. then they showed this Japanese movie called Swing Girls ( a feel good comedy movie) It was nice but the subtitles were in Korean T_T. I will post some pictures of it later. It could however have been much better if it hadn't been for a misunderstanding (read the sms part bellow).

we had our English teaching class for the design students at INJE University. I was 15 minutes late due to really sucky ass bad planning. We had to throw a fake birthday surprise party for Rob, for the camera crew (yes they are still following us around everyday). It was okay though rob got cake in his face so it was worth it.

So anyway because I was late to class I offered the students to go 15 minutes early, because I was late. you think that everyone appily walks 15 minutes early? They didn't want that... They wanted to stay, untill the ordinary lesson ending time. I felt kind of bad then so I offered that I would stay 15 minutes later.. they really wanted that. in the end I stayed for 30 minutes longer than I had to but it was okey.

After that I went out to celebrate Rob's fake birthday. We went to Norebang (Karaoke), it really is so fun, I will probably never do it in Sweden but here it's really great!.
The thing about Korean culture really messes with your mind from time to time. The following messages is from a girl that I'm kind of intrested in or maybe not, my mind doesn't work to good at the moment. But before my messages here's the background of the story.

So I meet this girl on our fieldtrip day when we went to the movie set. If you read my previous posts you know when and where it was. She gave me a scroll that she did that day (Korean/Chinese something something written on a parchment). Nice for me because I didn't do one. In any other part of the world I would take her action as an IOI (indicator of interest).

However this is Korea the land of mystery, where guys can be rejected 10 times before the girl finally accepts him as a boyfriend. there's alot of wacky stories around here I can tell you that. Anyway back to my story, the girl who gave me her parchment, asked me about my phone number... I take that to as an IOI.... regretably I didn't have my phone so I couldn't take her number. or give her mine, the next time I meet her I gave her my number and she called me so I got her.

So later I think it was the same night she sent me an sms saying: Hey what are you doing? I take that as an IOI...

After that we talked on the phone a few times, she's been calling me. I definatly take that as an IOI.
We talk on a daily basis over SMS yes I take this as IOI's as well. I try to set up plans with her, but she is very busy, so I haven't got the chance yet... The thing is I'm not sure that she is intrested at all... Because this is F**king Korea, I don't know.

here's some of my messages I recived from her:

I am so sad
I won't go to far in explaining this message.

U didnt want to see that with me.. so id rather study ㅠㅠ im sleepy. have a fun ^^
This I got when I was awatching a movie and she misunderstood me completly. I had to go and cancel my teaching class so I had to leave her. she came and sat besides me, and I had to leave to cancel one of my English tutoring class... She went of to the library to study instead.

I would be really sad if u dont like me how do u do that 2 me. ㅠㅠ
This was after I was teasing here about me not liking her.

미얀 that means sorry ㅠㅠ I hope to with you but you should understand me ^^ㅋㅋ
This message I got after I was asking here to see a movie with me and she told me she was busy.

Plus I got these weird pointless phone calls that has IOI's all written over them.. but I just can't figure them out, like one that went somewhat like this.

Her: Hey where are you?
Me: Hey, I'm at Homeplus, blablablablablabla...
Her: Oh I'm going to Pusan now, blablablablabla...
Me: Ah okey blablablablabla, have fun.... (What I really was thinking was, why are you calling me if you are going away now????

Hm I think this is enough random ramblings for today...

Random things

So this korean girl said to me that she only likes Korean men among korean, Japanese and Chinese. I asked here why and she replied. Well Chinese men are to fat in general. Japanese men are to thin and short. Koreans are perfect... I don't really know what to say because I can't seperate Chinese from Japanese or Koreans for that matter either. the thing is some people think I'm either Chinese or Korean. you people who know me, know I'm not that fat so... I think she got got some issues of some sort, but I don't know maybe she really can seperate all the asians, who knows?

Hmm today was a sucky ass day in general I can't belive it, the Korean cultural class was so boring, for some reason, I mena it's not a hard class to pass, you just have to sit there and listen to him, but it was so hard to stay awake... After that I went to Gimhae city, Gimhae city is very big, but for some reason no one of the 30 cloth stores we went to sold tshirts with short sleeves. My roomate tried to explian that it's the end of the summer season you can only buy long sleeves now... LONG SLEEVES? I mean in Sweden you would be lucky to see anyone wear longsleeves, but here, everyone wears it because it's begining to get cold... Cold today was aroun 30 Celsius... cold..

I actaully have one more complaint then I will end my ramblings for today.. I was so hungry today, but when I saw the food I lost all my appetite (is it right?). The reason? There is no reason the food was actually good but I wasn't hungry, so now I'm probably going to be very hungry tonight, when curfew sets in..

Well this is it over and out...

Taekwondo among other things

So we have finally tried Taekwondo here in Korea. I did a little of Taekwondo in Sweden with Sven. hmm I can't really say how diffrent it is here from Sweden, because the trainings have been just for show of their skills infront of the camera team (yes they still follow us). However I haven't seen one belt under black (except us adoptees) so that's kind of funny.

Today I actually spoke Swedish for more than one hour, it felt good, to talk swedish, however it felt kind of weird to, I think my accent has changed somewhat, however I'm not sure...

I actually recived a letter from my adoption agency SWS. They actually found my birth parents who live in Seoul. I think i'm kind of numb at the moment, I haven't really taken any of it in yet. However it's kind of cool and I will meet them in the future, the question is only when.

Well I'm waiting for my classes to begin now so Imust go see ya.
(I will try and update my picture journal today or tomorrow)

Three T's

Today I got to borrow a cellphone from my friend Sooyeon, So now I can start to spend money on calling people... A good thing or a bad thing?

A typhon is passing by near Kimhae were INJE University is, it's kind of cool to see winds this strong, although it's a little scary because the typhon isn't even near here and still the wind is kind of insane...

I'm really considering on listening to The calling Wherever you will go.
