To all of you curious cat’s, I’m now in Daegu, Korea. It’s day 5, since I arrived here. I’m currently living in the motel nearest to the school, where I’m working. I’ll be staying here until my predecessor leaves. He’s the most senior foreign teacher for the school and receives the most respect from the staff. His last day is Tuesday, the 29th. Once he leaves, I’ll be moving into his apartment. He said he’d sell me his home furnishing which I’ll gladly accept. It will save me the effort of shopping for cooking utensils and appliances. He says he also has a broadband connection, though I’ll still need to buy a new PC. I should have taken care of this before I came to Korea.
I went peeking into the other motel rooms to see how they compare to mine, and I discovered that this room has a computer with internet access. (Mine has a water cooler.) So, I’m blogging from across the hall. It’s also a good thing that I know most of the messages that pop-up through Microsoft Windows. All the text and messages are in Korean. “Do I want click this button or that one?” “Where’s notepad? (Or a live Linux CD would have been good to bring.) I just hope no one looks in the room and shouts Korean at me. I might get caned.
I’m going to now be migrate to my Korean blog, Drifting thru Daegu. I wanted to write about my full experiences here from beginning to end, and maybe I’ll get a different audience of readers. Who knows? Maybe a reader will find my blog and decide to do this too? Update your RSS feeds or I’ll keep this reminder with link on the front page.
