And the time has simply flown. Well, when I joined the army I was expecting a lot more possibilities than the average recruit, lots of people in my MOS believe that they were deceived on one aspect of their job or another, I have no such illusions. However, when I joined I never expected that the Army would want me teaching english to Korean citizens! They carted me and a couple other soldiers off to meet the mayor of this korean city and then teach Koreans english as best we could. Now this wasn’t in the job description at all when I signed up but you do all kinds of odd things in the Army. It turned out okay, me and this other guy just talked with our group (fortunately they were advanced enough to mostly understand us)
Yeah! Check it out! I’m putting a break up there! Pretty sophisticated, I know. Anyways, I’ve moved on to another term in college, I’m taking a history class that starts at the reconstruction plus whatever weekend classes I pick up. I’m really hoping for the days in which we get online textbooks because prices for books these days are RIDICULOUS! They’re just paper for goodness sakes! You don’t need to charge 100,000 Won for a book! So during the 4 day we got for armistice day (excuse me, veteran’s day) I worked on my 2,000 word essay and neglected my studying for my quiz even though the former is due in december and the latter is due yesterday! But even without doing any of the assigned reading I breezed through it so cool! I would have studied except I lost my study guide, with all my notes, yeah I’m probably going to need those, oh well.
So yeah, I’m feeling pretty confident in PT now, I’ll never be good at it but now I can have fun with it! I doubt I’ll have said ten complete sentences to a female my entire year in Korea, that’s how little contact I have with females. Well, we have a Full Dress Uniform inspection tomorrow so I get to dress up all fancy and stuff, I also get 2 new ribbons to add onto my 2 from AIT so yeah, eventually I’ll be one of those soldiers with hundreds… nah, I just want the Antarctica Service one! Hopefully I’ll get some photos of that to y’all
Peace Out!
