When you Say Nothing At All...

Well Its Sunday and its almost over. I have work tomorrow at 1. I am sure it willbe a busy day. Probably too busy.

I just got back from yet another wonderful time with Christina in Daegu. I met her friends and they were really nice. One of them didnt really speak English but my communication is just knowing the mean. "Complaining Girl" which is Christina's name for her said I was really kind and that I take Care of Christina. Both are true.

I was reminded of past times with Peter, Sam and Steve. I remember going out with them and I wouldn't say much and sometimes I wouldn't say anything at all. They always thought something was wrong with me because I never said anything but the truth was that I just felt more comfortable not saying much. I was more happier enjoying the moment and just understanding the situation that was unfolding.

Today I began reading a book called Chicken Soup for the Soul...its the only english book in the house that's worth reading. I also bought a Korean book that I want to start as soon as I catch up with work. The book I am reading is perhaps for a younger age group but the stories i have read in it are still important values. The books purpose is mainly to discuss relationships (Romantic, friendship, family, etc.)


Currently I am undergoing another transformation.

I am reading an old friend of mines old blog from her travel experiences.


I am sitting here in my room. And I feel slightly strange. My boss is watching TV outside and even though he is a chingu (friend) I still feel that he is more boss than friend. I just had a sip....just a sip of Soju (Korean Alcohol) and dont feel like having more.


I miss Christina right now... She is the only person I truly can talk to and be myself with here.

I Love Korea, I love culture and I am enjoying learning about myself but currently my mind is in a twisted knot of confusion. I am riding a roller coaster and I dont know where the stop is. I truly want to explore Language and learn Korean as fast as possible. As soon as Korean is learned maybe Japanese or Chinese. I want to seek self improvement and also find the answers to the questions I had before I came.

Sometimes I dont feel myself when I am alone or when I am out and around other people. I am really confused by a lot lately. I dont think I am experience culture shock because truthfully when I was in America I felt just as much shock as now. I am not sleeping very well or much. I am averaging 6 hours or less a night.


Today was Marvelous, I truly think it was one of the best days I have had here in Korea. The weather was perfect and our time in Daegu couldn't have gone better. It was one of those days that makes me want to cry because it was over. Being on the bus with Christina was the closest thing to perfect today. We headed towards Gumi just sitting there holding each other and enjoying the quiet and sunshine. We didn't need to say Anything at all. I am so happy that I was able to spend such a great Afternoon together. I was sad when we got out at Gumi.

They say home is where the heart is but tomorrow is work:(

I bought some food so I can cook Christina some special meals this week! I enjoy cooking now and think I will be doing more of it in the future.

I could write all day about things but I think I have said too much right now.

I am sure I will be back sometime again to write maybe I will not do it everyday though...

I should try to get some rest and shut off my mind. So Have a good day or Sweet Dreams depending on who you are that reads this.....
