you tube sunday

i've just spent about an hour watching this guy called zipster08 on youtube. i cant figure out why i'm so amused by him but i've watched a ton of his little videos. he's nuts. if you go to www.youtube.com and search for zipster08 you should be able to find him.

soooo. yeah. just wasted all day light hours on you tube. however i dont feel the least bit guilty b/c i have a bad cold and don't want to get out of bed. VERY happy to have wireless internet.

new roommate has arrived. keith, 38, montreal, bilingual. he got here at 2am friday morning. showed him the apt--he didnt realize korea is so frickin cold. yesterday was a big day--lotte mart, xmas party, and waegook cook. all super duper. probably shouldnt have gone out last night but i havent been to waegook yet and we wanted to show keith around so he could meet his fellow waegooks.

lately ive been downloading like crazy. got the new ipod so need to FILL IT UP. its a tough job. as a result, i havent posted here or uploaded more pictures. i DID get the laos pictures out though.

let me talk a bit more about my job. i love it. i only have one or two classes that are a bit difficult to control but NOTHING that compares to last year. (speaking of, I met the new teacher at my old school. Jenny, 24?, Southern Illinois, vegetarian.) we seriously play games all day. and even though im getting a bit bored of sticky ball and basket ball, the kids aren't. mind you i use the games as lessons. and at the end play ball game if they've been good. ball game--all the kids get together and i kick the ball at them while they run around screaming. great fun. and the school feeds all the little kids every day which means we get fed too. love it.
our korean teachers are nice too. although i don't think i'll get to be as good of friends with them as at my old school. we'll see though, theyre nice women.
i really need to learn more korean. it's sad that i've been here for over a year and i hardly know anything. i started making new flashcards for food. that's something. AND i started making flashcards for the GRE. but it seems like id rather read dumb stuff on the internet or watch videos than study. im blaming the weather--and my cold. i hope its not a season long cold...
