Yeah, I'm here.
Some friends are at home. Probably hungover. I'm furious at EPIK, and will continue to be until every single perk other NETs get is also given to me. Yeah, okay - they're still paying me. But I'm just sitting here. I should be able to go home too. Ridiculous.

So you are that mythical person that calls the MOE and complains about other foreigners getting more than their contractual vacation? |

but in all fairness, the only reason he knows about the extra perks other NETs are getting is because they're busy bragging. |

| Yeah, Christmas Eve isn't really a holiday. I've always had to work it. When I was a kid, it seemed like a big whoopdeedoo holiday, but now... meh. I'm at school, doing MA work and checking the ESL boards, and also learning Korean obsceneties... |

All the teachers and students have left except for me and the other second-class contract teachers. 
So far I've paid 2 bills online, made 3 orders at Gmarket and paid off some Ebay purchases. I foresee a couple more online orders today to fill up my time.

My bad. Obviously I didn't make my post histrionic enough.
I was being sarcastic. |

| I'm one of maybe a dozen people at my school today. I made an audio recording for our school's website (parents and teachers study with my audio and text files), laminated a bunch of stuff for camp, and am now watching downloaded stuff. |

That stuff took all of an hour. I'm bored out of my MIND. I'm going to have to download some more stuff. |

Should've brought a book. I'm currently getting stuck into Vladimir Nabokov. Terribly depressing fellow. |

| It is a bit frustrating when public school teachers at the same school get it off and you don't. Not that I would turn anyone in. But that warrents water cooler obsentities. |
