My Breath Smells Like Dirt & Ashes!

Thursday, July 24th, 2003

I started taking some traditional asian medicine after my acupuncture treatment. I’ve been taking it for about 5 days now and all I can say is that it is nasty as hell! Seriously, it smells like burnt dirt and it tastes a little bit worse. I just hope it helps to improve my health, I suppose my lack of sleep over the past 6 weeks doesn’t help much. :P

Que Paso?

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2003

I’m just hanging out at work doing level test interviews but there isn’t many people yet so its pretty easy cash.

There are only 6 more days until I officially go on vacation but I think my mind is already there. Working a split shift really sucks. I have to go the gym after I finish my morning shift and work out. Yesterday I ran 4.5km, a personal best for me. Then after I finish working out I go to the “JimJilBang” or the steam room as it is translated. I try to sleep in there for an hour if I can although its pretty hard to sleep when your are dripping with sweat. After that I get cleaned up and go back to work and prepare for my evening classes and try to catch some more Zs on the couch. My body can’t take much more of this shi(f)t and I am basically tired all the time. Since I’m not Korean it is difficult for me to work 10 hours, exercise, prepare for class, and spend almost 2 hours on public transportation. :P
Anyway, I guess I’ll go play bones until the next interview.
Later!

Live From Busan

Friday, July 18th, 2003

Well…

We have just spent the past 3 days in Busan and we are in a net cafe waiting for our train to arrive. It was a pretty nice vacation although the weather wasn’t too great yesterday. I took lots of pictures, about 40+ I think. I have no idea when I will get them up because the site isn’t finished yet. I am leaving for Canada on the 31st. So maybe when I’m on vacation I can get some functional updates done to nnCMS. I know I had said in the past that I planned on having 1.0 out before I left on vacation but that just isn’t going to happen, plus it’s not like anyone reads the site anyway.
Oh, I also got an eye infection which has made my eye swell up a little bit, I guess it’s back to 1-day contacts for me.

Peace!

Well I think I have my vacation all set up. I will be leaving Seoul/Incheon around 5PM on the 31st. And I will be arriving in Saskatoon at about 8PM on the same day. If you would like me to sign autographs you can look for during those times. We will be leaving S’toon on the 21st and spending 2 nights in Vancouver (aka Vansterdam aka Hongcouver). I’m really looking forward to this trip as it will be my first time home in 2 years.
At the moment I am working like a slave. I’m on a split shift everyday from 7AM-12PM and 7PM-9:40PM. It really sucks but it gives me time to take my lazy ass to the gym and sweat a little.
More to come! Stay tuned…
