The job market blows in America, so I am traveling to Korea to teacha the English to young hogwan students. I depart tomorrow for a bastard of a flight (6 hour layover in Chicago and 13 hour time difference from EST puts the estimated time of arrival at the ass crack of dawn on Friday) I just thought I would say hello to all you misanthropes. Hello!

Good luck, and have a safe flight! Try and sleep on the plane since your first 24 hours in Korea will be sleepless Shocked

Hope you already got your visa because if you didn't, you'll have to make a visa run back to the States. Or just teach privates.

Yup, the Visa is squared away. I had to drive to New York do the formal interview thing since I'm from Pennsylvania, which was a principal joke.

"So, you've driven hundreds of miles to be here; do you like teaching? Okay, present this receipt which we gave you prior to the interview to pick up your Visa at around 3 tomorrow."

Oh well, it will be worth it to get out and see another country/culture. Also looking forward to experiencing the accolades with regards to the women and food as well as trying to pick up a second language (High school Espanol hardly counts).
