I have taken the plunge and come to Asia to teach English, take a break from Photography and test my boundaries in many aspects. I have been here since October 2003, and my contract ends in 19 weeks. Here are my experiences for my last weeks in Korea

Thank God for Air Conditioning

I am currently ina much dishevelled apartment with two Korean workmen installing my air conditioner. OH THANK GOD! Though honestly, a month ago would have been so much better. Alas here it is and Chris and I will not have to resort to booking ourselves into a "love Motel" just for the cool air. Out of the blue, my boss informed me that they were coming to install this thing and I was speechless. He himself was here until a few moments ago and was "supervising". I showed him some of my prints and was reminded of my past life as a photographer. I told him I had to have a show soon to remind myself I was a photographer, so he asked me for a profile which I will start working on after I blog here, and he will try to get me something soon. He also knows a professional photographer who has a darkroom and will ask if I can print there, so the B&W I have done of Ecuador and Korea will slowly get printed. Thank God I brought my negs.

My friends Lori and Jason just had a baby girl. I got a photo and I must say this baby is the most beautiful thing I have seen in a long time. I want one of my own and I do think both Chris and I have good genes, so we will make beautiful kids, and hopefully they will be intelligent and dilligent like him and sharp and adorable like me (hey someones got to stroke my ego). I await the day, though it seems getting divorced might be a bit of a pain since neither of us are in the country. DAMN! Six months or so.

OK, gotta go make some lunch. I am starving. When it is hot like this I dont want to clean, cook, or do much but watch tv. All that will change now with AIR CON!
