Picture update and whatnot.

Update time.

I haven't blogged in a long time for various reasons. I've been sick. Well, thats not really an excuse because I've been sick since I got to Korea. It just gets worse and then subsides to a dull pain and then gets progressively worse. Off and on. Never truly going away. Fun.

Not a lot of new stuff ever happens around here. I have taken a couple random small trips to places around Seoul which I am posting pictures of here shortly.

I continue with my day to day work. I love my students because they are adorable, but they give me a headache everyday. I was never meant to listen to screaming children on a daily basis... But they are certainly cute.

Here are some updated photos:

First off: Michelle and I went to Seoul North Tower one day and also visited the Teddy Bear Museum. I expected it to be more like... teddy bears throughout Korean history. Instead it was Korean history with teddy bears as the people. Really odd.

Some photos:

Couples bring locks up to the north tower and write messages on them and then lock them to the fence

Seoul. And this was one of the clearer days. Smog everywhere. Totally disgusting.

"HEYYY there traditionally dressed Korean bears!"

Photobucket
Yea... I thought it was going to be different too... its just korean history with a bunch of bears instead of people.
