Rain.

Today for the first time since I came to Korea it rained. Now being from Humboldt I would barely even call this rain, it was more of a sprinkle, but by looking at the Koreans running around you would think it was the beginnings of Noah's flood.

Another picture of my neighborhood.

Today was my second day attempting to teach class on my own. It went a lot better that I thought it would, and oddly enough the kids actually listen to me. The best part it is that the kids assume that I don't speak any Korean. They completely freak out when I call them out on what they are saying.

Since I must make some mention of food in all of my posts I must add my first experience with Korean pizza. Before that I must add, just because I have talked about "American" food in my last two posts doesn't mean I don't eat Korean food. Actually, thanks to my Aunt, my fridge is overflowing with Korean food from Kimchi and other traditional Korean side fishes to bulgogi (marinated beef) and fish. Anyhow a couple of co-workers and I all had break at the same time so we went down to the lobby of our building for some pizza. The pizza was dirt cheap about five bucks for a medium pizza. I ordered a combination pizza for myself and before one of my co-workers grabbed a slice I mentioned that my pizza had corn on it. Yes, my combination pizza, along with green peppers, sausage, onions, cheese, sauce and pepperoni, had corn as a topping. To which my co-worker quickly replied "yes, so does mine, welcome to the land of corn on your pizza." Word?

I thought it would be a good idea to miss the bus home so I got stuck walking in the rain. I took some pictures on the way.


The park I walk through on the way home.

Cherry blossoms in the park.
