What to say... Lunar New Year was a little bit calmer than I expected, probably due to the whole worldwide economic downturn, but there were far fewer revelers out on the beach as we strolled into the Year of the Ox, not to say that things were quiet everywhere as Angela and I brought in the Chinese New Year with a glass of champagne to celebrate better times and the changes that are coming along with them. Along with the holiday, coiniciding with the end of the winter intensive term, *whew* I can breath again..., brought a much needed reprieve from working all night and all day. They are rough, that's all that need be said, but it was worth the effort and time flew by.
Valentine's Day, in contrast, was a much bigger holiday than I expected, prompted largely by the beautiful warm weather that accompanied it. As temperatures were holding steady in the 60's, the beach came back to life renewed by the sun's warmth and the international celebration of love. Couples swarmed the streets and U2 as we celebrated a much happier time. I have been busy lately, spending more and more time at the bar helping in a variety of facets, now to include the title of DJ. My passion for music, along with my friendship of the DJ, has brought me the chance to play music while expanding the listening repertoire of my little corner in Asia. I hope everyone is surviving their winter and beginning to feel the hope that the touches of spring bring to everyone. And with that, I'll close my little note, I really will begin taking more photos and updating on a pictorial level the happenings in and around Korea. Until then... ciao!
