Bordem sets into the boring mind?

It was yesterday that the boredom began to set in. The fact is that Gunsan has nothing to its name, not even a cimema. It has a park, and a few shops, and that is it. I can't really go shopping, unless I can justify the cost of posting whatever I have bought back to England. People speak of a 3 month wall; could it be that I have hit it in half the time? While I was at the PC Baum (internet cafe) yesterday, I was so bored that I took an IQ test designed by a Phd specialist. I got 135, and I am a creative linguist apparently. Last time I took one the score was similar, but I was a scientist. Does my brain adapt its way of thinking to my working environment? Who knows. I'm just weird.

The past two days I have felt physically drained at Gomdo, having to stop and end the lesson early, while before I was able to keep going. Perhaps I am not eating properly. Hopefully tomorrow will go more successfully.

After Gomdo I was hounded by a group of 8 year olds whom I didn't recognise, as I don't teach them. As it turns out they go to the same Elementary School, but to different Hagwons, that of Jeremy and Joseph, and Paula. This was a nice suprise.

Tonight Jeremy is coming round to fix my mop (of all things) and discuss my contact. It looks like that I will be unable to replace him at his school, which will be a huge disappointment for both of us, as he is home-sick, and I detest my current school.

I have heard that the leaves on the trees out in the mountains have started to turn. Perhaps I can persuade Eun-Joung to come with me this weekend, or perhaps I should wait for my boots. Maybe I should visit some fortresses instead, given lack of walking boots. Its just finding out where they are and how to get there...
