Money and smiles

Yesterday The Boss and I discussed my pay. Half my wages this month has been taken from me as deposit for the apartment, which I expected as it is in the contract. So money will a bit tight for me this month. I am pleasantly suprised to find that he did not diddle me. He actually engaged in a civilized conversation with me. I will be getting the money today, I wonder if he is actually going to smile as he hands over the money (Hagwon/language school is his own business).

Learned some new moves at Gomdo today. Actually getting a combination of moves going, and it feels 'real cool' (something James would say). Its a bit of a struggle still as everything is right handed, so I tend to wobble sometimes, but at my least my stance and technique over all is good so far (apparently).

Posted my letter to Fran; went all the way into the town centre. It cost me W750 including the envelope, about 35p. Shame it cost me 3 quid to get there and back. Afterwards James told me of the other post office that is round the corner from my school. I could have thumped him.
