Rant

Well I thought I should update but instead of talking about my semi crazy experiences in Seoul this weekend Im more in the mood to rant about what is annoying me in Korea. Also these are in no particular order
1. Korean drivers worst in the world
2. People not speaking in my class
3. Australians as my mate so eloquently put it, "they are like the cockroaches of the world" (I really dont hate aussies I just find most of them annoying they are so fucking sarcastic)
4. Self hating westerners, I know the west has done some fucked up shit (america) but its not evil so shut the fuck up im tired of hearing it
5. Brown nosers, I work with the biggest fucking brown noser in the world and it really annoyes me, this guy kissers up to everyone my boss, studetsn other teachers I hate it. He also constantly talks about how superior korea is to the west.
Well there are many more but I got to go time to go to a Doosan Bears game

drinking north korean soju

Well last night (friday night) I got my first taste of something north korean and that came in the form of Soju. So for you who dont know Soju is a horrible liquor that Koreans drink like water, its cheap, 1 doller per bottle and dangerous, drink two and your fucked up. Well last night me and my buddy rob met some other foreigners a kiwi, a aussie, and two strange russians one I know was named Boris. Anyways one of the dudes i think the guy from Australia bought some north korean soju that he had bought from some marine. A little FYI if you ever come to Korea you can get anything from a marine. So we met these dudes in front of a convience store that is conviently located in the red light district so me drank soju and beers and watched these prostitutes come and go if was pretty sweet. So after drinking tons we went to a western bar and drank more and I got more drunk then I wanted becasue for whatever reason people always give me free drinks and as everyone knows you cant turn down a free drink. Anways we ended up drunkly getting a cab at around 4 in the mourning. So in all it was a pretty sweet average night in the Changwon.

Payday

So I got paid a couple days ago and it feels great. I have now reached one of my goals with 5 million won saved up, thats around 5,000 dollars. And with six more months to go plus my 2 million won bonus I am on way to my ultimate goal of saving 12 million won. But the strange thing about paypay in Korea in that I get paid in cash and becasue their highest bill is 10,000 won you get a fucking huge stack of money. Let me tell you its pretty badass to go to the bank with a huge wad of money. Also yesterday was teachers day in Korea which means that most students brought me and all the other teachers gifts. I ended up getting bottles of cheap wine, lots of food including rice cakes, flowers, and other misc. cheap gifts it was preety sweet.

nightout in Korea

As I write this I am in a PC bang as i wait for my computer to get fixed. I got to tell you the PC Bangs (internet cafe) are shitty sure the computers are nice you have cool leather chairs, its cheap, but there are children everywhere and everyone smokes. But anyways I got paid yesterday 2.3 million won which is around two thousand three hundred dollars. I got paid three hundred extra because I had to teach an extra class all last month. But because this is saturday I would tell anyone is interested about my night last night. So last night me and my buddy rob were sort of forced to go out with students. So we went out with Jack, a huge business man who owns a few factories and he fucking drinks a ton, melissa a cool housewife, two male students and two cute korean english teachers. So our night started out at some upscale bar where we drank tons of beers, which jack paid for of course. Now if you dont know Koreans drink fast and and they love "bomb" drinks where you add liquor to your beers and then you have to bottom ups. Man keeping up with jack is tough but I think I impressed the korean teachers i guess Koreans repect people who are strong. Well anyways after drinking we went to a huge Nora Bang think Karaoke. While there all the koreans sang some sort of ballad each and they all sing very well which makes sence becasue they all lovre nori bangs. But eventually I was forced to think and I choose the coolest song I could find which was Nirvana rape me and I think I did fairly well and dugg it. So after being at the Nora Bang for like two hours and drinking a ton more, (thanks jack) me, rob and the two korean studesn who were 24 years old went to the best western club in the city. There of course we drank more and I got shitfaced. I ended up drinking with some scottish dude who kept buying me whisky shots for a while the I talked to some cute hippie chick who went to Reed college then I attempted to hit on the hot Russian bartender from Kazakstan. Now I know she diggs me but when I hit on her Im always shitfaced but she gives me free drinks and fucking touches me so tonight she said to some to the bar at seven and we could some drinks so I will try that. Anyways I ended up drinking until 7AM then I got a taxi and slept. But I got to say it was a normal night but fucking wierd and fun.

ok

ok well i havent written at all about my wierd life that i am living in korea. But I thought that if anyone was curious this "blog" would allow me to share my experience with family and friends. So to start as some of you know i live in Changwon Korea which is 45 minutes from Pusan. So basically I live in the fucking suberbs., So anyways this is my life in general i 'teach" 7 classes everyday 630 AM 730, 930, 600 700, 800, 900. It sucks but I get paid a ton. So becasue this is my first entry what do I do , well during the week I east sleep and work. But the weekend is when my life gets a little more interesting I usually drink at this western bar o'brian's on saturdays which is kinda shitty, the owner Austin is cool and I have fucked a few of the bartenders but in general its full of fat old men. So what the what the fuck can I do to keep myself entertained well on saturday i always go to pusan which is genuinely cool fucking city.l Now right now i dont want to talk about experience(maybe in the future) but last night I had an interesting night. So just to give a quick recap last night was cinco de mayo and I wanted to celebrate bu tmy friends were either in Seoul or with girlfriends so i went alone. So ive been to pusan times and i knew where I had to go my favorite western pub which is called the underground near Pusan national university, (turn left from the subway stop and go four blocks). Anyways the night was sweet I drank tons of tequilla, coronas, and margaritas. I do though have a huge problem with my night as I dont remember from like 200 till 800. The last thing I remeber is im drinking with some dude from south afraica and next thing i remember im in a fucking and i dont even know what city im in. Also i think I laid as i had a used condom wrapper inb my pocket. Anyways I plan to write on here once a week to ramble and talk aboput my strange fucking life in korea.
