To wits end, I ask…

I rented a DVD from across the street after the gym today. It was a bit intimidating because I am always worried about looking like an idiot when I use my Korean skills. But this time proved not to be as disastrous as I had anticipated. The only noteworthy thing that happened was that the guy took my picture after he issued me my membership number. On the cash register there is some sort of camera that when a button is pushed, takes your picture and stores it along with your membership number. This is a wonderful safeguard against others renting DVDs under your name.

This morning, I was able to have a hot shower in my apartment. As normal as that sentences implies, it hasn’t been a normal occurrence since I moved in. I am starting to feel a little more settled in this damn place now. Moving takes a lot of energy out of a person. As simple as it is, there are too many adjustments to be made. And having hot water to wash my dishes and to wash myself was not an adjustment I wanted to make. This building is a lot newer than that cockroach infested building I was living so I didn’t think I would have as many annoyances. But I have been here for a week now and I finally have heat and hot water.

I think I have been driving Mr.Jo nuts. Everyday I would come into work annoyed and I would freak out about everything. Finally today everything was settled, including Interneinstallationon and payment for my essay book.
