Its November, so Vancouver is finally living up to its name as monsoon capital of Canada. Thank goodness, it would have been such a disappointment otherwise.
I'm developing a love/hate relationship with school. Sometimes its fun and interesting, and sometimes I just can't keep my eyes open, and can't wait to get a job and earn a bit of money, and be free from the constant tyranny of after-school obligation. I'm so interested in Korea these days, in a way that I never was while I was there. Now I suddenly want to enroll in Korean history classes and learn to write properly. I have so much more respect for all thing Korean now that I'm separated from them. I can't believe how much I've followed the cultural alienation seven steps thing... From interest and overwhelmement on arrival, to frustration and anger, to acceptance and then back to interest. Its hard to know if I miss my life there, with its easy money, easy life, easy travel, crazy neighbours, adventures and so on, or if I actually miss the Korean culture itself.
