My (New) Apartment

So, long story short, I had to move apartments to accommodate a couple that my school hired. The couple is not getting here until later December, but once I knew I had to move...I wanted to move ASAP. Also, they told me that I had to move on my birthday. Thanks, school.

One and a half months later, I finally moved. I tried to find my own apartment, in some misguided sense of spite towards the school, but in the end, I moved to their last open apartment.

Overall, I really do like this apartment. I am spoiled with my appliances and the setup is pretty fantastic. The space is used perfectly for me, and this brings me joy like you would not believe. Check out the video below, it is long--I warn you. PLEASE PLEASE comment if you watch the video. Thanks.

Andong Folk Village and Banpo Bridge

Hey everyone,

Last week, a few co-workers and I headed towards the Banpo Bridge at night to drink some wine and watch the bridge's light and waterworks show. It was entertaining and it was good company. We have to enjoy some of the outdoors while we still can, before it gets too cold. Brrrrrrr.


This weekend, I went on a meet-up trip to a little man-made lake, a mountain with a decent hike and walk, a Korean folk village with some cool mask dances, a cave, and a place where you can choose your own meat and cook it in a restaurant above the ordering area.

The folk village was very cool. Here are two videos from the mask dance at the folk village.


A farmer is killing a cow/bull in this first video.


An Ajoma (wrong spelling) character is joined by an audience member. They dance together for a while before they try to get her off stage. It is quite hilarious.

Overall, it was a fantastic weekend. I met more nice people and I had a good time. I hope to meet-up with them again.

Adios for now.
