Now at least I joined a gym and got into shape in my free time. I was referring to my work ethic...it's gone from 0 to -10.

Haha....it'll come back. I've been amazed by what pushups can do alone. And a couple of curl bars.

The idea of working 40 hours a week terrifies me in a general sort of way, but the idea of working 40 hours a week doing something that I'm really into doesn't. I'd only go back to that kind of schedule under those circumstances. I think I like it that way, too many people do it just because they think they have to.

Unfortunatly NO!

Everybody says English is going out of style, that nobody is going to need it in three years, that everybody is going to switch to Chinese....I can't begin to describe the pixal space that has been dedicated to talking about the demise of English.

How I wish that was true (...sob). I've been working morea nad more EVERY YEAR!

I have become lazy. I am scared to think what real work is like. My on average 3 hours has distorted my mind quite a lot.... but as of late, I am beginning to see differently about this little gig going on here and changes are a must and mostly likely to happen very, very soon.

What I've noticed is that it is a lot harder to get out of bed in the morning.

In australia(pre-Korea days) I had no problem getting out of bed at 9 in the morning(and I worked until 10 at night).

Here I know i don't have to start work until 4:30 some days so when the alarm goes off I just find it so much harder to shake myself into gear. i don't know why that is but thats the biggest difference i find in my laziness.
