N.Z film festival

Actually did stuff this weekend as opposed to staying home and doing pretty much nothing.
Went with Vanessa and Bong-Suk to the N.Z film festival at Gwangju Cinema (which is like an icebox, evidently they have never heard of the concept of heating) yesterday and saw Once Were Warriors, Ngati and Perfect Strangers then went to another theatre with Bong Suk and saw Merchant of Venice. Somewhat depressing to realise that I saw more movies yesterday than I have in about 6 months. Also spent 60,000 won on books since was meeting Bong Suk at Starbucks and there was a bookstore next door that had English books so 1 hr and 60,000 won later I had 6 new books. Met the Kiwi ambassador yesterday too, he showed up for the opening film Stickmen which we didn't stay for but did see the fireworks show they did.
Went hiking again today, up some mountain that I don't know the name of with Lindsey, her friend Hillary, John, Bong Suk and Wong Chei. This climb was better than the last one because a) no stupid, evil mozzies and b) found a climbing stick which made things a lot easier.
Have been to the dentist every day last week and who is starting to annoy me by trying to make me have little or no injections. This is despite me telling him I don't do and never will do pain. Bring on the needles. Don't like them but like the drill even less. Also had the joy of finding out I need a wisdom tooth out. Great, can't wait for that. Really.
Anyway, am off to read my new books. Bye
