The Concept of Time

A Special Report from the Land of the Morning Calm....
Its now 10 in the morning on a Tuesday and I have a few hours before work to rest/relax and basically do whatever I would like to do.

I am trying to learn everything I can about Korea and that's including the language. Its a slow process and will take a lot of TIME.

Time is something that is critical to Korean culture. Everything is literally planned around the clock.
Work starts at 1 not 12:50 not 1:10 but 1. The bus runs as close to every 10 minutes as possible.

Time is of the essence and its not just because its a business transaction or whatever but also because its the time of our lives.

In Korea the morning is a slow time and reminds me of Missoula all the time. People are doing things at their own leisure. The Concept of time is a lot different though for me than it is for most people here.

Regardless of how my feelings are for my job and for how things are going in Korea the truth is that I don't have a lot of time left here. I have 10 weeks, I have less than 90 days left.
What do I want to do in 90 days? There is still a lot to be done and many things that I would like to learn.
Its really important to start doing more with the time that I am given than wasting it away like I did on Sunday. Maybe it was because I was sick and just didn't feel like moving around but Time in Idleness is a problem.

This week is already feeling like its going by fast and it just started.

Its Time to move on to my next endeavor of the day and I will be back here later tonight or in your case early morning....
