I am writing to explain the lack of content on this blog over the last week! But if you are expecting any more to come within the next couple of days you are going to be sorely disappointed! This week is far too busy for me to dedicate any time to myself, which means no time to sit and write the blog.
The reasons for this being:
1. Emily, Kat and I went to Insa-dong (link to Insa-dong post) at the weekend to get all our Christmas presents, and hence the beginning of (and soon to be rest of) this week has been spent gearing up for my first Christmas away from home. I’ve had to write all my cards and wrap my presents to get them in the post for Friday so they arrive in time!
It’s very strange to think that I won’t be at Nan’s on Christmas day opening presents, then drinking the Radway and Volly, making prawn cocktails and eating Nan’s Christmas lunch before heading to the Pike household for few rounds of ‘Tell Me’. Instead I will (hopefully) be hurtling down a snowy mountain strapped to a piece of wood and trying not to break myself! The things I do in the name of fun!!
2. This week we say good bye to Caroline. The one other female living in Kumdan and someone we will be sad to say good bye to. We have enjoyed many shopping experiences and drunken nights with her in the last two months.
So, when not wrapping Christmas presents I have been eating food or drinking beer with Caroline. Tonight is her last night and a few of us from the area are saying a final good bye over a few pitchers of Hite (the local larger) and some fried chicken!
Anyway gota go and write some Christmas cards and teach lessons. Will post early next week – promise! Bye for now.
