2 months, and a bit

It's been a long while since I posted here, mainly because I haven't had much to post about. Things are going okay here. The job is okay, Ulsan is okay. Things are just okay. I've been thinking a lot about my future and what I want to do with it, and I'm pretty sure this will be my last ESL job in Korea. I'm pretty much over teaching English. I like being in Korea, but if the only way I can stay is being an ESL teacher, then yeah, I'm not really interested.

Will just wait and see how the remaining 10-ish months of my contract pans out.

My tumblr is now my photography blog, so check it out here: http://andyisnothere.tumblr.com/ I'm uploading two photos a day. You can also subscribe to the RSS feed: http://andyisnothere.tumblr.com/rss

Here are some photos that I've taken in Ulsan that I uploaded recently.

Just like that...

My 3 days of vacation are over.

I've only been here for a month, and have had my "summer vacation", if you wanna call a weekend and three days off a vacation (well, they do in Korea). That's just part of the deal with working in a hagwon - you get short vacations, but you get every mornings off. One thing that I hated the most was asking permission from the principal of my old school in Korea to leave work "early" (after all my classes had finished, but before 5pm) to go to the bank to sort some shit out.
On Sunday, I had a friend visit so we checked out an Amethst Cave nearby. It wasn't too bad, I guess. Too many people there, which isn't my thing. Yesterday, I walked along Taewha River and checked out Taehwa River Grand Park (Photos in this post). Today, I got my Alein Registeration Card from the immigration office and went to visit a friend in Changwon.

Today was insanely hot! Can't wait for autumn so I can do some more travelling (comfortably ^^)

One month down

Yeah, we all know that time goes fast. But, the older you get, the faster it seems to go.

It's been a month here in Ulsan already, and things aren't too bad. I like my job and I like the place I'm living. I don't have too many things to complain about, which is a good feeling to have.

I don't have much to say, but just wanted to write something. It's pretty warm today, and have already been out in the "heat" once. It's more humid than hot, but is enough to make you sweat a lot.

I've got a few days holiday next week, but don't have much cash, so am just thinking about checking out some places in Ulsan.
