tuesday on my mind

today was really a lot of fun. Lots of class, I was supposed to meet my buddy, and to cap it all off: Table Tennis! I'm going to go ahead and apologize ahead of time for the brevity of this note. I'm really tired ha ha.

So class was ok today. I was really tired still but luckily I am able to grasp what we're doing easily. I know it's sticking with me because I'm able to speak Korean a little and use what we're learning in class. 

Doing the homework is a little more difficult though. Not on a skill basis but on a time basis. Haha I got in at 11;30 because of table tennis, so I will do homework before class. Lucky thing is that it's easy. My literature class assigned its first paper today, too, so that was pretty exciting. I like writing papers, especially about characters. 

Today I stayed under my budget again! I'm so happy! I spent a total of 6000 won today (but no dinner ha ha) so lets hope I can extend the streak to two days. I bet I can. Now that I have found out how, it's going to be easy I think.

I was supposed to meet my buddy today, but he didn't show up. It's ok if he doesn't, because I have met many Korean friends here now (all through sports, basically) and I can talk to them for practice. If I need something, I will just ask Mr. Kang. I'm assuming my buddy won't contact the office, but if he does, having a buddy will be nice too. 

Table tennis went really well tonight. My coach went through with more drills today, and even showed me some good exercises I can do to strengthen my legs. They are great. I'm pretty sure I will have legs of steel when it's all said and done.

I checked my comments from a couple notes ago and saw how everyone was worried about how I was doing and everything. I want to thank everyone for their kind words, thoughts, and prayers, as I had struggle #1. I really do appreciate it. 
As much as I appreciate it, though, I don't want anyone to spend the kind of money it takes to send something over here. I was just made aware of the fact that it's really expensive, and for some home comforts, I'm not sure that's worth it. 
If you still feel compelled, be my guest, they are still home comforts and they would still be ok. It's always nice to know someone thinks about you that much. It's very expensive though, and I would rather not be a burden like that.
