Pepero, the gym and hamsters
I now have a hamster. He's small, grey and white, fat and his name is Beucephalus. Got him from 2 teachers who were leaving Korea. Don't worry mum, he won't be coming back to N.Z with me. Prmise.
Yesterday was Pepero Day here in Korea. You have to love a country who makes a holiday out of the fact that the date 11/11 looks like 4 sticks of candy. pepero is the same thing as those Japanese Pocky sticks Mika and all our other Japanese students used to bring us. Hard chocolate covered sticks. Anyway, people give boxes of them to friends, family etc so thanks to my students I now have about 30 or so boxes of the things. Won't need to buy snacks for a while.
Had the joy of going to the dentist again today. Supposedly to get a wisdom tooth out but all he did was have a look, tell me (yet again, like he has for the last 3 or so visits) that I need it out or it'll be a pain later and that was it. So, am now getting it out in 2 weeks. Maybe, unless he does the same thing, in which case I'm giving up.
As shocking as this will sound to everyone but I am being good and finally joining the gym! How often I actually go is another matter entirely... but the point is I at least have the intention of going and getting fit. Since there's about 5 of us joining the same gym I figure we can go together (provided it's not in the morning that is. I don't do mornings, never have, never will) and since I've paid I'll be more likely to go. Maybe. Will let you know how this theory works out
