Morning Glory

Well its Saturday and the closure of the week. I had to work in the Morning today. Each Saturday I either work in the evening or in the mornings. No matter what I say about Yale being a nut house~its a job and that's all that I can say about it. My job brings the bacon home.

I love the mornings for a few reasons. The kids are so subdued that it takes a lot of courage to be a showoff and cause problems. I had 3.5 good classes out of 4. These 4 are all mine~I give them the report cards, monthly tests, and plan thier direction. For 7 months now its going so fast.

Working in the mornings also means Christina is with me. I hate Saturdays at work but even more so I hate Saturdays without her. Saturday Mornings~We enjoy the Baguette and coffee before kids come.



After work I went with Christina to a restaurant and had lunch. It was a Rainy Gray day in Gumi. I feel bad sometimes and maybe its because of the weather.~ Unfortunately I couldn't control myself today and felt really bad. Part of me still feels a little ashamed at myself.

I enjoyed the good meal with Christina and as always it was filled with laughter and merry.
I waited for her while she swam. I really need to get a hobby and think that I will try to take up swimming. I want to swim with her and even get over my fear of swimming. I am going to swim and excercise more in February if not as soon as possible.

After Swimming and idle time we went home. Its the weekend the one day I get off and I may go to Daegu, Chungju or just stay in Gumi. I really want Christina to meet my friends. I know that she'll like them a lot.

My purpose in Korea has constantly changed since getting here. At first it was just to try Korea and learn about myself away from home. I needed a year to reflect and make sense of the happenings in Missoula. I left not entirely feeling good about that. I wasn't doing the things that I wanted to do and was wanting to find new possibility.

I have evolved into someone I know respect more than I did prior to my departure. I found a lot of truths about me and some of them are quite surprising. I can say that the best pleasure I have ever experienced has been because of Christina. I have many good friends and have a lot of fond memories back in the States but I have never felt like I belong anywhere other than with her.

Today, I officially have less than 5 months before I return to America~that is unless I decide to take a different course of action...London?
I am determined to make my relationship work~ I dont like making mistakes and I don't plan on failing. I want to seek continual self-improvement and become better in EVERYTHING.

So, here I am its 9 pm its a fast day always too fast.. who is to say what I will do tomorrow or next week.

I dont know what else to say~ Time to do some push-ups and think about later...
