Long, long distance

I can't believe it's almost 3 months since I've been here in Korea. I'm adjusting pretty well. The cold weather was killing me in the beginning but so far I'm getting by. You can't really complain if you're paying 100 dollars on the monthly heater bill. It's just one of the things I had to live with. I really really want to learn how to speak Korean. But my brain doesn't cooperate at all! I can't even memorize peoples names! So much for learning the vowels and consonants!

I miss everyone back home. Good thing there's YM, Friendster etc. I won't miss the gossip even while I'm here. What would life be without the Internet? Even my Korean boyfriend is in the Philippines. It's funny how we're learning each other's culture by ourselves. While he's learning about Jose Rizal and the carabaos, I'm in his country too learning about the Chosun dynasty and the subway system! Oh well, immersion is the key. But we just really miss each other. Sometimes phone calls and emails are never enough. I just can't wait for us to be together again.
