One Snowy Evening

You wouldn't imagine how unlucky I am in posting this blog... I was almost finished and about to click post when my computer just suddenly restarted... Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!

Anyways.....

Hello guys! How have you been lately and how's life goin'?
I have plenty of stories to tell but actually was..(I mean, I still am ) very busy for the last few weeks.

I gave up my bowling lessons and got a new job in Metro City.

There was another call last week offering me another office work but I declined the offer... I got the job that I needed.

Tommy and I moved into a new house and spent the Lunar holidays with my in-laws. We had a very busy holiday because my in-laws just remodelled their whole apartment and as "the one and only dutiful son and daughter-in-law," we had to help them moving the furniture in and out of the house. Remodelling an old apartment house is twice as difficult as moving into a new house... For Goodness sake~~~

I'm still working on the dissertation~ shit.

I'm stressed up and can't find some relevant materials and local dissertations that I needed... It's been almost a year!!!

And this morning, I was very hopeful that classes would be suspended because of the heavy snow... BUT.. it was only a wishful thinking... got the 9:30 subway to Kyeongsung University and arrived to my class 10 minutes late... ã… .ã… Poor me~

I was somehow broadcast in HCN channel... it was terrible. I was interviewed in Korean (life in Korea as a foreigner)... of course I should answer in Korean too, right? but then it turned out to be funny~ Tommy still makes fun of me after that.

I lost some weight they say, but I'm not yet so sure about that. But I am thinking of taking Yoga again this month or a combination of aquatic sports for a morning sport. I gave up bowling because I hear my bones cracking... do I somehow need glucosamine supplements???

Called back Philippines and had a word with my sis. Heard Cheryle will get married here in May. Tet is working for Doosol. Oh... how I miss them...

I wish I could spend some more time home and kill time with Tommy...just doing anything... just like before.

Hope all of you are well and in great shape. Be healthy and Be happy~

Keeping Right

Have you ever experienced walking on the right side of a sidewalk when suddenly a rushing Korean run into your direction, literally? If you won't give way, you'll just hear that someone muttering something under his breath. Or have you ever had these cases like you were doing " patintero "(pah-tin-teh-roh) with the other person when you are walking? I find this behavior very bothering (sometimes odd and funny) especially when I use the stairways in the subway. Some subway stations have escalors going up installed at the left (e.g. Deokcheon Station). What is surprising is that they even have this sign: I told this to Tommy a few days ago and I just found out from him that they learn walking at the left side of the road in their elementary days. They even have this song that goes lilke this: "People keep to the left and cars to the right. Let's cross the street after looking right and left." So, it must be because of an old convention of walking on the le...

Samsung's AMOLED

Yup. I have a new phone and this is because of Chloe. She knocked out my phone so hard on the bathroom floor that made the monitor useless for two whole days! I went to a near Anycall service center and actually planned to repair it but they said that I had to pay for around 25,000won for a part replacement, I just thought of buying a new one since there are a lot of free phones nowadays and I had used my phone for more than two years. To pay 25k for an old, really full of scratches phone (because of Chloe) is too much for me since sooner or later I also need to replace it. In the end, it turned out not to be a free phone(850,000 won / $690). Tommy bought this phone for me saying that I need a "much, much better phone" because of his daughter...hahaha! and because I've been always using free phones since I came here in Korea (which are NOT really FREE PHONES because of the additional services included in the phone bill for the first few months). So, I resulted picking thi...
