So What's Been Going On?

Well it's been over two weeks since I last wrote a blog entry. And that was a rushed one about our holiday time. We're not really any busier than usual, but it seems so sometimes. Saying that, work is as busy as usual, with a Speech Contest coming up on Thursday.

We have had to reign ourselves in socially, as we have paid off some debts and bought our return tickets back from Japan for September. Can't wait for that, so looking forward to the Japan trip. Another lifetime dream about to be fulfilled.

So then, what have we done since we got back from holiday? We finally went to the Leeum Museum of Art in Seoul, (pictures below) owned by Samsung. It was one of the best museums we've seen so far, just goes to show what money can buy. There is pieces by some of the leading contemporary artists in the world. It was so great to see such art all in one place. Not seen such things since the Tate Modern in London.

Since holidays, we've been to a derby football match. Suwon versus Seoul, the stadium was packed to the rafters. Fortunately Suwon won, which is good seeing as the are the home team.

Apart from that we've not done too much. We did have a Mexican Night last Friday at home. Kristin is heading home soon, so she brought round what food she had from the last Mexican Night we had. Ben and Jorge came round as usual. Also though we had new friends round. Jason an American we'd met a few weeks before came round, he brought his work mates, Warren and Nicole, and his pug dog Sujo.

Sunday we went to the races again. Samantha and I met up with Amy, and we jumped a train over to Seoul. There we met Jorge, Ben and Ben's work mate Gary. They'd gone earlier. We'd supposed to have gone the same time as them, but got up late. Fun day was had by all, and no-one won or lost too much. Then again when you are making average bets of 1000 won (50p), then you aren't going to break the bank, or make yourself a millionaire. Then again, we go for a cheap fun day out, and that's exactly what we had.

Well that's it. Oh, almost! I'm supposed to be running in a half marathon. Dorothy bullied Jorge and I into it before she buggered off to Thailand on Holiday. We started training with good intentions. Even met up at 7.30 in the morning on the first day. Then it slowly went down hill from there. I did a couple more days, until I was so stiff I couldn't hardly move. Since then neither of us has done much, if anything. Got to get back into it, otherwise the half marathon will kill us. That is, if Dorothy doesn't kill us first for not doing any training.
