Gumdo wahey

The weekend was pretty uneventful. Saturday night and sunday night was spent at Paula's with videos (again). Saturday lunchtime saw me trapsing round the shops desperately looking for some sturdy shoes so I could do some hill walking. None of the shoes here fit me, I sit uncomfortably between sizes, so I came away empty handed. Saturday afternoon was spent cleaning the disgusting fridge. I am proud declare that it is now sparkling and fully functional. Saturday night was the first time I have ever been on top of a 14 storey apartment building; I stood on the roof and gazed at the stars. Sunday was spent at E-Mart, looking for basic food that I can recognise and thus able to cook without poisoning myself. The apples were ridiculously expensive, around 3.50 for 4 apples. I think I will shop at the market stalls for fruit from now on.

Today was my third day at Gumdo. I am getting there slowly, the language barrier a bit of a problem. James and I are doing it together, but he already knows Kemdo (Japanese version), so I have a feeling he will accelerate through the belts leaving me behind, jealous and pathetic. Also I am being made to do it right handed.

Yesterday the Boss sprung 150 reports for me to write; I do not know the students names yet as I have only had them twice each, and they are Korean. Anyway, I used the Korean teachers comments as a guide and managed to get them done last night and this morning. (The deadline was yesterday, how retarded).

Oh well, back to work and my minions.
