In fact i'm insanely happy. My life in England was nice, but over here everything is fitting into place. Any newbie's reading these forums, don't listen to the boo-boys.


Not happy, but insanely happy.......


at that i bid you all good night...and .....good luck.

I'm happy too, minus when I've got my head in the toilet exploding with morning sickness.

I feel pretty happy too. It feels like the right place to be for the time being. Not forever though, that's for sure. One year at a time I guess.

Life is pretty easy: I only work from 2:30-8:30 so plenty of free time. Free rent, cheap utilities, good salary. Not so stressful work environment. Fun kids. Some good friends. Lots of hobbies: tennis, running, finishing grad school. Found a good Church. Mountains to hike. Cheap eating out. Good public transportation.

I think the key is having a decent job with short (er) hours and not a lot of stress. Makes the whole experience in Korea a lot happier I think.

Well I'm happy, too. I had a pretty good day yesterday and I think I'm going to have a pretty good day today, too, and a good day-after-tomorrow and a good weekend.

Last night I had yet another conversation with my co-workers about why I like Korea better than Canada, the absolute absurdity that abounds in this country notwithstanding.

Great post LL Moonmanhead - fellow compatriot and MANCHESTER UNITED! supporter.

Wrong forum, sadly, but you can't have everything.

I've long proposed getting rid of the boo-boys from the genepool. It takes a certain type of psychopathic loser to live in a country that is the object of his or her almost-religious scorn.

I'm happy as a pig in muck generally! Nice bird, nice apartment with toasty and efficient heating, inflated salary, cushy job, great colleagues, I'm learning a foreign language.....nothing to hate from my end.

Losers, whiners, Korea-bashers.....may they all have a pineapple inserted into their respective rectums!

They don't need that. They're inserting a pineapple into the rectum of their mind.

I forgot to add, I'm generally pretty happy here.

I'm loving it here as well too.

Alright uni gig. Done early. Go to Hapkido. Great vacation.

Notice how the 'I love Korea' thread is 10 pages.
If you started 'this country suxs cuz" thread..it'd be 10 pages by now.
