ho hum

The past few days have been quite quiet. My schizo boss has changed from being almost normal with a sense humour, to a rude, indifferent bastard. But hey, the silence is much better than the sexual harrassment. I guess he realised that he was not going to get anywhere when I started laughing at them. Every time I approach him its 'Louise, me very busy'. When he is in a slightly better mood I intend to get my degree certificate back from him.

Stomach seems to have settled, but famous last words and all that. I antipicate yet another bout of constipation. The flu is slowly drifting away, now that my voice is coming back, along with my eneregy levels. The increase in my energy levels was celebrated by cleaning the bathroom. I can now see the floor and the surfaces, but I cannot shift the mildew. At least the bleech has killed it. I then attacked the kitchen surfaces, only to find that the stains will not shift, no matter how hard i scrub. At least I know now that they are clean, even if they don't look it. I have the fridge, dusting, sweeping and mopping the entire apartment left to do. I will leave the two balconies to a later date.

Next week is Korean thanks giving, where I get 4 days off. Unfortunately it was only today that I hit upon the idea of taking a boat to China, only costs 20 quid for a return. But then I realised that I would need to get a special visa that will allow me back into the country, which I really do not have time to do. I will keep a look out for any other long national holidays and plan it better next time (if there is a next time!). So saturday will be spent in shinae (town centre) and monday a Korean colleague is going to take me to a Buddhist temple situated in the mountains, so it will not all be that bad....

Tonight I will be meeting up with Westerners in the Wa-Bar, the local hangout for all those who do not speak Korean. It will be interesting to see who else is here in Gunsan.

I have completely forgotten where I found the local post office. oh well, back to square one.
