Herald NIE

Well I received my first pay-check last Friday and also had a staff night out. Another foray into the dark side of Korean drinking culture. Was good night but unfortunately my director wasn't allowed into the club because he was wearing a suit. So we nipped round the corner and he took of his tie and swapped his jacket with mine. Unfortunately it was about 3 sizes to small so i looked like someone out of a 1980s pop video. We tried again but unfortunately it was his age that was the problem so we had to ditch him and I met up with some friends inside.

The relationship at work is going well actually.We are starting to understand each other more and they even printed my name on their new books. They have not altogether stopped but the enquiry into my religion no longer feels like an issue. However they still keep asking me to get married and live in Korea. I don't want to say outright no to them. However, as much as I enjoy living and learning in Korea staying isn't an option. My director even offered a salary of $80,000 a year if I worked with him for the next 5 to 10 years. That would be great but my ambitions lie elsewhere.


I'll up load some more photos tonight.
