5th week in korea.



A job found in korea, i am an english teacher now!
Giving a 1 to 1 lesson with a staff working in the university i am studying at, i am happy with the pay :) However, with good pay, it comes with stress, its my first time being an english teacher and i have got a tough challenge here - I have a 55year old student who holds the position of secretary at hannam university. There is gonna a balance between respect and correcting. Bu Rong Yi!

This week, i have been having a marathon with topher, which means a beer marathon too. At least 2 bottles per day and had 5 yesterday. God. Mon - Sat. I can feel my belly bouncing around. I hope i can find some motivation to run tml. Getting lazy when i am enjoying my time here.

Dream, Episode 1.

Words as honourable as it is sometimes may not be the actual truth of what we think subconciously, but dream does reflect the honest feeling of how we are feeling about ourselves and life. Last night, I had a dream on elevator. I was in it with my sister, we were taking it back to our storey.. However the elevator did not get us on to the indicated floor which we wanted and even got us over the limit of the building of 25th floor. The block was having construction on lift as it is increasing the level of storeys hence the elevator eventually reach on to the wrong floor at 40+ floor. After then, we were stuck there for awhile, panicing if we have to get out of the elevator and slowly climb the ladder down. But after then was pushed down by one of the contractor all the way to ground floor. This is the 10% of the dream that I could remember. Went to do an analysis on the web, and it truly reflects what I am thinking spiritually: http://www.auntyflo.com/dream-dictionary/elevator-or-lift-d...

Once upon a time in Korea

Once upon a time, A teenager, 18 year old boy made a dream, a really long dream. He entered the dreamland in the early september of 2010. His mission was to experience a student life without friends by his side supporting him because he thought he will be left alone without all his friends who has been supporting him for the 3 years in poly. Instead, he met 2 comrades in the first month, these 2 have been a pillar of strength for him. Phrasing it again, these 2 are the best mates he ever had in his life. One is an american, another an african. and of cos with the boy, an asian. The widest spread of combination one ever can have. Among anywhere else in the world, these 3 indifferent people with different ethnicity, culture, values and belief met in a country call korea. They hang out together at miller time, a bar that they would visit there at least once each week. They too hangout at another bar call garten bier without fail, almost every friday with other friends from singapore and t...

2 days to London - Cambridge

Image
2 more days to my summer journey in UK. The news came in March from SMU that I am chosen to go to Cambridge University for a term summer exchange in the month of July. I was on clouds nine upon receiving the email. It felt surreal and exciting. This would be my first time in England. The thought of studying in one of the best universities in the world, visiting Manchester and reliving those exchange moments once again. As I collect my heart and emotions for this trip, I just feel that I couldnt set it on the right note. Not sure if the trip is too short, uncertainty over the trip, financial concerns, relationships, dog or simply aging reasons - I was not as excited as I was when I travelled to Korea for a 4 months exchange 6 years ago. Nonetheless, I am looking forward to the 50 day UK trip. First 20 days with my long old buddy touring England and Scotland. Thereafter, 30 days on my own at Cambridge. Never expected myself to go on exchange again during SMU times because o...
