October has come and is almost gone, I don't know what it is about living here but everything seems like its in fast forward. I guess partly because I am a day ahead of everyone at home so it gives me the illusion of it being faster or maybe its just the fact that since I'm in a new place it has that same feeling you get when you travel...that wow it's going by so fast that "I feel like I'm not going to get to do or see everything I want" kind of feeling. Regardless I guess this feeling is good compared to it being a slow dragging process that I felt like I had to claw my way through.
With October comes the amazing weather. The weather here is great in the fall and it also offers some of the clearest skies and most beautiful days of the year. Hopefully this weather will continue into mid to late November before a cold winter sets in. I am afraid that winter will eventually give me a lot less desire to want to be out and about so I need to soak it all in over this next month before I go into hibernation.
I have also started taking Korean classes on Saturdays. I have been learning through friends and co-workers for the first couple of months but for me to really conquer the language I sought out some real professional help. The classes are offered for free and are small in size to guaranty the one on one time that you need. Also the classes are held at Korea University which surprisingly enough looks like a typical American University with all of its beautiful Gothic architecture done in stone. Just being on the campus makes me happy and gives me that itch just wishing I was back in school.
In closing I'd have to say it's been another good week and I look forward to the next but all in all it's just another day in the Gu.
