Tuesday of Break Week

Today was much like yesterday. I woke up and skipped breakfast, got a short nap in and then got up for real. I watched my buddy Alex stream for a little while before it was time for lunch. I went over to Heavy G's room around 11am to see what he was up to. After a brief visit I decided it was time for a quick shower before lunch.

I went to lunch with the other girl who is going to Maple Brook school in September. I'm sure that both of these girls are nervous about speaking English to native speakers, and I'm blessed to be able to help them feel more comfortable. We actually ended up spending close to 4 hours together just talking and walking around. We grabbed some coffee after a walk touring the campus at a place called Jogun's cafe near both of our dorms. I got a cookies and cream frappuccino, life is good.

After saying goodbye, I headed back to the dorm for a quick rest before dinner. I wanted to visit with the boys a little bit before we headed out for our nightly duties. I wasn't all that hungry for dinner so I decided to get 비빔냉면 (Bi Bim Neng Myeon) which is cold noodles with vegetables in it. A merge of Bibimbap and Neng Myeon, good stuffs.

After dinner I went back to the dorm with An Hyo Sang. Heavy G and YJS went to badminton class today, so I went to An's room and hung out with him for awhile. I'm trying to still learn some vocab even though I'm not in class this week. I've set a goal of 3 words per day as a minimum. That's pretty easy and something you could do without even really trying honestly.

I basically ended up going back and forth between An's room and my own for a majority of the night. I did a load of laundry so I guess that was exciting. I had a chance to Skype with my parents for awhile, and that's always encouraging. Our internet connection was bad for awhile though so things were a bit rough and I was distracted. All in all, things were good though.

That's about it really, I'm feeling this is kind of a calm before the storm type deal. A chance to rest and restore my battery before things get out of control again. In a good way of course. One thing I do need to do is get back in the gym, it's been a few weeks and I'm being lazy about it. You can't get strong just thinking about working out. Anyways, it's bed time for tonight. See you guys tomorrow!

Bonus pic of "grilled pizza" that I saw at Jogun's today and had to share with you guys. Classic Korea hahaha

Korean Word/Phrase of the Day: 농담 (Nong Dam) Joke! I've been making jokes with people but unfortunately have to explain them as "미국 농담" or an American joke haha.

TL:DR I am Blessed.
