Toiling Away in Relative Obscurity
I am now one month into my 2nd year contract. I went to Jeju (a subtropical island off SK’s south coast). It was just what the doctor ordered. My September was pretty miserable up to that point. I hadn’t been terribly happy at work. I’ve no intentions of airing the particulars of my grievances in this format at this time. Besides bitching about work is supposed to be done over beer.
That’s enough negativity for now. It’s always better to dwell on good things. Chuseok was absolutely great! I got to hike to the top of Hallasan (a frikkn volcano!). The mountain itselft was beautiful Here is a pano of the crater at the top:
We also got to go parasailing! This is my first attempt with Blogger Video, Hopefully it’ll go well.
After the Parasailing we had an excellent steak dinner and went home to relax. We did a lot of other things like visiting some waterfalls, a lava tube and a ground level volcanic crater. Anyways Hagwon nonsense aside, I am still very excited about the coming year. I have a nice pay raise and that will allow me to do a lot more good stuff over the coming year.
