Rain, rain, and changing schools

I'm quitting my position at Avalon. My last day of teaching is May 29th.

No, I don't have a new job yet.
Yes, i'm getting in touch with recruiters/schools.
Yes, there are several positions available.
Yes, I plan on staying in Seoul (or at least in the surrounding area).
Yes, this means I will likely be in Korea longer.
No, this does not mean I am staying forever.

On the plus side, I can shop around for something that pays higher and also somewhere with an apartment bigger than a janitors closet! YES!

Kiwon's parents have offered to help me figure out any problems with changing my visa or moving or anything, they are very kind.

More updates as they come, i feel like it is already happening very fast.

Grocery List 2

Pull up bar
xbox 360
controller
Street Fighter 4
Fallout 3
Alarm Clock (phone alarm was getting to easy to ingore, now i've got one across the room)
Power strip for my multiple chargers (phone, headphones, camera, laptop) and electronics (tv + xbox)
5-pack of stainless steel sporks. That's right, SPORKS.

I'm considering looking into an HD tv for the facts of my current tv: mono sound and i can't read the font on either of my games without approaching cancerous proximity. I will more than likely make do, but if it turns out shipping a TV home does NOT cost me an arm and a leg, then it would definitely be cheaper to grab one here.

I'm entirely sick of work after tolerating it for a while. There are no Middle School classes this week, which means that my number of classes has dropped to 2 a day on Tues/Thurs. This leaves me 3 hours to do.....nothing. But of course they are paying me for the day and must give me busy work to do. The phone conversations were ridiculous enough, but now that i've filled out counseling report cards for each one of them, they tell me that i need to "write more". One of the other teachers here simple wrote what the phone conversation was about (baseball, animals) another teacher wrote about the student's progress in class. I wrote breif comments on the student's conversation skills as observed via phone call. This is unacceptable to my school and i have to "write more."

Really sick of it.

Adventure, ju say yo

Last weekend, Bobby and I went hiking in the foothills North of the city. It was the most activity I have done in far too long a time (this is indicated by the amount of sweat accumulated on my entire body while hiking). I'm sure that there is more I can do around the city, but unfortunately, that would need to be done during the daylight hours. This is a problem because i've graded my sleep schedule to waking up at 12 or 1 and going to bed at 3-4 am. This may be considered unhealthy by many, but it's only really troubling because i don't get to do most of the stuff i want to do because i'm not AWAKE when things are available, and the subway closes 2 hours after we get off of work.

Hiking was incredibly fun, i could do it every weekend.
