Desk warming...

Camp is officially over and I am confined to 3 days of desk warming. I suppose the term is more appropriate now than it was in the winter as it's still really really really really warm outside. Did I mention it was warm out?

After having 3 straight weeks of camp I don't particularly mind getting the chance to just relax for a couple of days. Only problem is dragging myself out of bed in the morning...and that it's so warm outside. But, as much as it's unfortunate that I have to leave my air conditioned apartment, getting up on time at least makes me more productive...even if I still haven't cleaned my apartment like I've been meaning to for the last week or so.

Being the only non Korean speaker definitely makes things interesting though. One slightly scary teacher came up to me yesterday and said, "Lebecca, let's go." I didn't have the guts to say no. We all got in his car and we drove....and drove and drove and drove. We ended up in the middle or no where...in fact I'm pretty sure it was North Korea. After lunch of cold noodles and 만두 we drove and drove and drove back again. fun times.

Today I braved the only bathroom available...drinking three cups of coffee really isn't a good idea when the one women's bathroom is under construction and the only one open is on the third floor, where it's a million degrees, and there are still students running about. I managed it...and returned once more to my desk only a little traumatized.

And that is my VERY interesting life. Happily it will become more interesting next week as Maryam and will head to Jeju next Friday. Now THAT will be an epic trip.
