Wow haven't written here for awhile. So here is the update.
I left Korea at the start of March and met up with my boyfriend in Bali.
He asked me to come back to Korea with him.
I said Yes.
We spent two months in Australia together.
We got jobs working at a very small school together in Busan.
At first I hated my new job but its okay now.
I got my red belt in Taekwondo, and I'm going to start training again to get my black belt (only three belts to go!)
I QUIT SMOKING!!! WOO HOO! It was easy.
We are going to work here for a year, save lotsa money and then I'm going back to New Zealand with him, where I'm going to get my primary education teaching degree (hopefully!)
Ahhh I feel so safe and secure now... weird feeling. Life in Korea is still crazy though and I'm going to try and update more often.

Weird things that happened to me lately...
- I got asked twice in one day if I was Russian prostitute (many of them in Busan)
- I witnessed two car accidents today (minor ones though)
- Today a man on the subway asked Bruce if we were married.
- I couldn't find 50 cents in my purse to buy tissues, the sales assistant said Bruce should give me the money. Bruce said he didn't have any money on him (Bruce lost his wallet). The man replied "You cheeky mouse" Bizaare.
- I had bronchitis for a week. It sucks in one of the most polluted cities of the world. The doctor gave me three days worth of medication that cost $3. There's something about medication being that cheap that tells you it ain't gonna work.
