The time is now Midnight on the 30th of Decmeber. I have 3 days off of work!!!
I havent written about my sleepy little town yet so let me inform you of my extact location in this mundo.
I am centered in Gumi, an industrial city in the Southern prefecture of Korea. Nearby is Daegu a shopping area and is much bigger than Gumi... I think next year I have to go there more often.
Busan is the biggest city in the South where I am located. I have only been there once and will be revisiting there again tomorrow. Good ole Port city...a place for pirates seriously.
Aye matey I will be watching my back scoundrels just a head argggg.
Anyways, back to Gumi....
There's a downtown district which is actually pretty small to me nowadays even though there are 450000 people here.
Gumi is unfortunately a conservative place (backwater?) in Korea. I have become more conservative since getting here and in many ways this is good but people are conservative in the wrong ways.
I live near a bakery, half a dozen restaurants of which I rarely go to any of them except for ones previously mentioned
Lunchbox, Ra Cha Cha Kim Bob, Mcdonalds mainly.
I am trying to broaden my horizons and try some new places. I have been here long enough to start seeing the expansion of this town, an itsy bitsy village if you will
Today, I stayed in Gumi trying to get a little things done here and there~ It was a great day nice and relaxing.
Tomorrow my baby and I will go to Busan and watch the Sun go down if we are ever so lucky. If not we will just Rock it all night!
And so comes 2008! Wow has it really been 6 months and counting almost 7 now (2 more weeks)

The Euphoria of Paradise
I had the most amazing Christmas! It couldn't have gone any better.
My life here in Korea at times can mirror the image I tried to build myself while being in College. I feel it is important to just make someone's day. I would always try to do whatever I could in order to improve anyone's situation.
I was telling Christina today about my college days and how I was friends with everyone. In the morning, I wanted to make my friend who works at Mcdonalds happy since she had to work on Christmas. When I go to Mcdonalds which is way too much she often gives me extra food and she also gave me an accessory for my phone, which is not nearly as nice as the one I already have. The heart I stole from Christina. (She gave me a heart and I like it so much)
I gave her some candy, a souvenir and a card and she was so happy and she didnt care so much that she had to work.
My day only got better!
I spent the entire day with my significant other. We cooked Bulgogi and spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying our company without the chaotic mess below (Academy things). We also enjoyed some wine for dinner. It was a special occassion and one of the few times I will get to drink haha..
thats ok though.
Being with my girlfriend is complete and utter harmony. I feel more alive than I do when I am anywhere else.
I just finished a book called Life Lessons to me it was all about trying to find ways to enjoy life more and to get the most out of it. You only get out of Life what you put in. Life is an enigma and I am all wrapped in its splendor. I dont know what will happen and frankly when I think about it, it scares me. All I know is that I am a combustion of Love just ready to explode.
This week is nice I have potentially Saturday Sunday Monday and Tuesday off! I am happy! I need it so much. I hope tomorrow when I go to work I hear the good news!
the Joyous momentous occassion called Christmas has come to a closure in the East, tomorrow the rising sun will tell me that it is now Christmas in America and my friends and family are divulging in some sort of wild festivities where the can encounter the grandure of everything.
Working the Christmas Miracles if there are such a thing is what i want to focus my life on. Its my hope that each day should see a dazzling display of affection and an array of friendships that will hopefully give birth and pave a way to a glory filled future that can truly unite mankind together!

A Chocolate -Sushi Surprise
Its the best day of the week Sunday. There is no work. Its just one of those lazy days where anything that happens is fine by me.
Everyday in Korea is a mystery and magical at the same time. I spent the day with my wonderful Honey. When I am with her as always the whole world seems to stop moving and I become lost in her and all thats good.
Today we had a Sushi lunch which was really wonderful. I love Sushi a lot and havent had it since coming to Asia. Can you believe that? I have had Kim Bob which is similar but doesnt quite cut it. I also had Sushi in Japan but that was a holiday. Special treat.
So spending a lot of time on my back I felt like celebrating the near begining of what will be a good year. This is my first time that I drank with my girlfriend and honestly I love drinking with her there isnt anything I do that I wouldn't want to share with my baby. I dont plan on drinking anything except healthy drinks and wine on Christmas!
Christmas is going to be amazing. I have one more day now to plan for it but I can't wait.
~HERE'S A TOAST Part 1~
To all the Happiness in the World. ... I know I have it right now because I know I have the most amazing person in all of Korea and through thick and thin I love her so much. My aim is to make 2008 the best year I have had to date. The best time is now and to continue working towards self improvement is my ambition.
In 2008 or right now actually I am going to invest more and therefore live each day to full measure.
Drifting in Idleness is not becoming and I want to open up any windows in the world and let all the sunshine caress my Shuske and I with never ending dreams!
