Day 28/29

3 years ago

by JR

No photos. My portable harddrive and card reader are being dried out as we speak. I woke up and poured a whole damn cup of coffee on top of my desk.

I am enjoying the short week, but it feels like I have been away for a month at least. I am in the process of hiring a new teacher(again) .

We have to go into Seoul this weekend for Seollal II with JJ’s oldest sister. I will again be forced to eat more than I can physically handle. At least, we will be coming back home, so I will get to sleep in my own bed.

We are still trying to procure everything for JJ’s visa. I hope to get to the embassy next week. We have all the forms handwritten, so Saturday will be spent typing them out and getting the package ready.

I am also trying to get as much skype video time in with my brother, his wife and their new baby.

Day 27 Hanbok

JJ got her hanbok that she will to our reception. She wanted my mom to see pictures before we arrive in Mississippi, so here you go. We still have like 9 months before we return, but it feels like it will be tomorrow.

I know that I am going to enjoy this short work week. I do have report cards due on Friday, so that will take a little extra work, but still only 3 days of work will be great. We are also traveling this weekend again to see JJ’s oldest sister in Seoul. Her mom will be joining us again and I was told to bring extra bags to carry home all the food that they will give us!

Day 26 Sewan

JJ holding Sewan. We survived our trip to Daejeon. I have never eaten as much as I did this trip. We started off with Jeju fruit and from there moved on to fish, meat, soup, noodle, kimchie, Korean pancakes, more rice, more fruit, more soup, a different fish. I read a lot while the girls caught up. I finished a James Patterson book that was decent. I played a little Go Stop and lost a few dollars. I did get in good gracious with JJ’s mom with my present to her ,Namdaemun spending money. We entertained JJ’s niece most of the trip. She had more energy than me!

The bus trip back was only about 30min. more than normal due to traffic. We were lucky. I know that some people will spend all day in the car. It is good to get back. I have a lot of projects that I need to start on, especially getting ready to visit the embassy next week and I have to put in a little bit more time on my Korean studies.

I am also debating on what lens to get for my camera next. I decided agaisnt getting a large zoom, but may end up with the 24-70L or the 17-40L. I just can’t decide. I have read all of the reviews numerous times and really keep going in circles.

Day 25 Snow Day

We went to Coex today to grab a gift for Jaeyoun’s niece. It was nice without all the crowds. It was surprisingly easy to move in and out of Seoul and through the mall.
