tomorrow i go pick up my health check. i hope they don't try and tell me i have pneumonia. once i have the documentation, it and my passport will be sent to headquarters where they will apply for my alien registration card. it should take 3 weeks to get, then i'll go apply for a china visa because i've already made plans at the end of january to go to shanghai for chinese new year.
here's the living room/kitchen/laundry room/closet and in the back is the bathroom. your shoes aren't actually supposed to be on the floor, but the space just inside the door is not large enough for my shoes, but i do take them off as soon as i come in, as is custom, i just put them along the wall.
and here's the bedroom. the blanket and comfortor they provided look like something you would find in a 7 year old girls sleeping beauty themed bedroom. as nate said earlier as we got in a cab to come home to gockbanjung-dong, "what's with the gock blockin'?"

I'd say if you didn't have sooooo many shoes you could probably fit them in the closet! Do you also take off your shoes at school or is it just a custom in someone's home? It sounds like you have your work cut out for you in the teaching department. Do you really have to teach Korean history?
i only have seven pair here. the closet is basically an armoire with just enough room for my clothes. shoes are removed in many restaurants, in particular the more traditional ones where you sit on the floor, and in homes, not school. i'm teaching world history, but it's not so much about history as it is the students' ability to use their english comprehension and skills outside of an english class.
