Wow. I am amazed about my own discipline...but I guess its about time.... ㅋㅋㅋ...as my mom would say.

I work basically from 9-6 PM, then take an about 2 to 3 hours-break and then work on my thesis until 2 AM. Its pretty crazy. But I dont mean to complain by writing this, because I am totally aware that its my own fault. I just hope I will manage to finish somehow. Only 9 days left. Wow, thats scary. But then...it would mean I AM FREE when I hand this in!!! At least for a while, PAG!!!

A comment someone made today, made me think. There is this huge gap between internal and external view on yourself. I remember the perception my friends in Canada have, and the perception people here seem to have. Pretty different I believe. Wonder if thats due to the circumstances, due to myself or due to the people here. Wont figure it out RIGHT NOW (way to tired anyways).

Things I will remember:

• Talks on the roof.
• Discussions around lunch. Western vs. Korean food, this store vs. that store, "not again Schön", "not this place, not that place".
• Too many cigarette breaks.
• Intern mtg on the roof at work. Intern mtg in the kitchen: Its all about the COOOOFFFEEEE!!!! (My daily coffee routine, not before 11 AM, unless its an emergency :P
• Dog food cookies (Hundefutterkekse), and pretty chocolate-covered sunflower seeds.
• PAG givin me this funny look about "Schatz" in the office. Oh, and my divorce ;)
• Mel on the phone with her "Macker" ;)
• K. and PAG hitting me. OUCH!!!
• "The victim"
• "I wont say anything anymore."
• Clogged toilets and sinks.
• The supermarket man and the Kimbab woman. Almost daily routines.
• Looking at the clock, waiting for 2 AM to come, so I can sleep.
  

Cultural bits:

• A few years ago, people were sharing taxis here in Seoul. I asked a cab driver today, he says its not common anymore.

• Did I ever mention buses in Korea suck? No wait: Bus drivers suck!!!

• Ju-sok, Thanksgiving, is coming up. Very exited. Everyone is leaving to see family. Wonder how it will be. I want to sleep all weekend, but I doubt that I will be able to. Glad to see Jang-yook Obba again. I miss the good old times when we could talk for hours and hours. Wow, that was about 12 years ago I think...
