update

sorry it's been almost a week since my last post. think i'm going to lose all my readers if i keep this up for much longer. just haven't been in a posting mood... sorry.

last weekend was spent with friends - friday was the wine and cheese night with a bunch of lady friends... only got in after 3am... it was good times.

saturday a bunch of gimhaens headed out to changwon - the next city over - to celebrate a couple of birthdays - kimbirdy's 25th and lois' 60th. again, good times were had by all.

the last couple of days have been particularly hot and muggy - which makes me lethargic, thus the non-posting all week... guess i've just been lazy about it. i keep thinking of things that i want to post about, but by the time i get home from school/the gym/meetings at the office of education/after school classes/banking...etc... i just don't feel like it.

some good news this week - my flight home will be paid for by the office of education on a "government travel request" - meaning i don't have to shell out the bucks and wait to be paid back! woohoo! we reserved my flight yesterday - i'll be leaving korea on september 2nd at around 7 am local time... which means i'll be in montreal in time for dinner (or breakfast in korea).

i'm flying busan - seoul - chicago - montreal. the last flight will be with air canada :( boo. i hate air canada... i'm expecting my luggage to get lost since i will have to pick up my luggage and re-check it in chicago... and i know from experience that AC has trouble with this concept... apparently you have to do this in the states now... the long haul will be with korean air... which should be nice. i had a great experience with them on the way over...

what else? ...hmmm.... oh ya, i think the laryngitis is back. haven't been feeling great for the last couple of days and now it hurts to swallow, i have no energy and was cold all day despite it being over 25 degrees and humid... no fever, but it felt like it... and of course, this in time for canada day on the weekend! i'm supposed to be going to busan to celebrate... we'll see how i'm feeling... in the meantime, i skipped the gym today - actually came home early and slept for most of the afternoon... i just have no energy.

i'm looking forward to thailand with ranya in just over a month!!! i've been doing research on all the places i want to go, things to see and do... before i know it i'll be lying on a beach in the gulf of thailand drinking a mojito and watching the clouds float by... i can't wait. the next two months are going to fly and before i know it i'll be home and job hunting!

update over.
