Weekends are great no matter where you are... catching up on sleep, talking to family and friends on Skype, exploring... maybe some cleaning.
Saturday I went to Itaewon, which is the city largely known for its expat community. I went with my roommate from training, and it was my first time navigating the subway lines solo. Didn't get lost once. YAY ME!
My main purpose was to get the much desired third book of the Hunger Games series, Mockingjay. If you have not read this series, I highly highly highly suggest it. You will not be disappointed!!!! After I found it, we just walked and down the streets browsing alleyway stores. I know where I'll go should I crave McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, etc. It was nice hearing some English again as well.
Oh, so apparently a typhoon hit us on Thursday morning. I had heard whisperings that it'd strike, but didn't know when or where. Well, it struck while I was sleeping, probably around 6 am. Surprisingly, or perhaps not so surprisingly, I slept through it for the most part. When the wind was at its strongest I did wake up because I was concerned something was going to either fly through my window and hit me (but I figured the bars would protect me haha) or large amounts of debris would shatter the building's glass doors. Neither occurred. I was too tired to be completely worried so I fell back asleep for another few hours. I spent the afternoon-evening at school and enjoyed the conversations about what was broken, what the kids saw, etc. Either they embellished a bit or their area was hit worse. The biggest concern was that one kid's computer broke. haha
Happy Weekend!
