You can't go out, it's a school night. You're grounded!

Korean liquor laws here are very easy to follow, being that they seem to have none. There is no last call, there is no over-serving, and there is definetly no such thing as just having one.

I didn't write much about my past weekend, and its not that I can't remember it, really its not, it is just that it is starting to sound more like a university student's lifestyle than a teacher's.

So you may remember a post from a few weeks ago when I was proclaiming that "I met people! Real live people!", it went on like that and I was very excited about the prospect of being able to expand my social circle. So far those people seem pretty cool but hanging out with them is definetly cutting into my sleeping time.

Friday night we went to a bar that had 2 for 1 drinks from 8-10...so at 9:50 you just go and buy enough drinks to last you for the rest of the night. After that we went to a different part of downtown because the bar we were at closed at 3...finally got home around 5 am on Friday morning.

Saturday night we started out at a place called Wa bar where you sit around a big table that has a deep cooler in it, filled with ice and beers and coolers from around the world..serve yourself...they just write down the things you take. After that we headed to J-Rock for all you could drink night. I was still recovering from 2 for 1 night so I can honestly say that I was pretty low key, though that didn't stop me from staying out until 6 in the morning.

Tuesday nights at the bar around the corner from my place is a bar called the Beer Hunter which has half priced drinks until midnight, which means that instead of paying 2 dollars for a pint of beer you are only paying 1. This is also the meet up night of the foreign teachers and a pretty good time. AND I found five dollars on the floor so I actually made 2 dollars by going out last night...really how can I afford not to drink? After the Beer Hunter a few of us went back to my friends place for some rounds of Jenga. Yes, Jenga. Don't ask, I dunno. Anyhow I suck at Jenga, but that didn't stop me from staying out until 5:30 this morning playing.

Four hours of sleep later I am ready for work and dreading dealing with those little monsters and today is the last day of normal schedule, starting tomorrow is intensives where i will be teaching 11 classes a day. Five hours of that day is going to be phonics classes and kindergartens...I may need to start drinking at work instead of after.
