The past week so far

So I finished probably my last time teaching in Daegu this past Wednesday. I don't think I have any future reasons to return to teach at the hakwon anymore. Hmm, I didn't notice really think much of it but wow. I have such good memories from just being there. The past two summers and this past winter break holds some good memories. I would say the students, the co-workers, and especially my boss had a part in making my time there enjoyable.


So on Thursday, my boss and I went to go skiing. This would be my second time going this winter break so the times I have been skiing in my life has tripled. Haha. Yeah, it was awesome. The drive there had some amazing sceneries. And even once I got there at Muju, it was amazing. The ski slope we went to has the longest course of all in Korea (more than 6 km!). Here's a picture from my phone when we were at the top of the mountain.



So on Friday, made the trip up to my grandparent's home where I'll be staying. On Saturday, went to eat McDonald's with the little cousins. They really wanted to eat the bulgogi burger. I just stuck with the big mac.

On Sunday, after church, I went to go see a professional basketball game. There were more similarities in watching American basketball and Korean basketball games than there are with baseball. But unfortunately, we were watching the game between the two worst teams in the league. Overall, the game wasn't all amazing except for a few good plays. But mannnn, it is freaking loud in there. Not from the crowd (cause that's bearable), but from the music and the announcers blasting through the speakers... I think the volume could have been turned down a lot. But it snowed a bunch in Seoul on Sunday so after the game, we went to the park next door and stepped on the new snow. Hahaha

Today was a big fun day. We went ice fishing at Inje (인제). I think we got very good spots cause every time we pulled up our fishing line, there would be at least 1 fish that would come up. We didn't have to really sit and wait for the fish to bite. Just drop and pull. It was fun fun fun. Haha. And the view was amazing too. My first time standing on top of water like that. Crazy. I think the final count was 46 fishes. The people that walked up to us were surprised at how much we caught. I guess we were lucky.
Afterwards, we went on over to 속초 and just saw the beach area and ate dinner...
So.. that is my post work thus far~
