Only in Korea…

would I get a million compliments throughout the day when my hair looks like this:

IMG_5853Clearly I’m settling in when I start rolling out of bed and coming straight to work, nasty pony tail and all. So much for my “I’m going to get ready and look nice for work EVERY day” commitment. Yet, all day the little girls keep saying “oh chrissy teacher your hair look so beeeeautiful today!” I think I’ll have to live here forever.

This cold is still looming so I haven’t been venturing out too much. The highlights of my week have consisted of 2 hour naps after work, a weird dinner concoction I made out of what was in my cupboards  (can of corn + bowl of rice + can of tuna.. DELISH), and getting really good at Guitar Hero at Jono and Freddy’s.  However, my settlement money and airfare refund is supposed to come through today, so the tides are about to turn and I’m going nutso. I’ve been scraping by won by won, but now I’m going to be a millionaire before the day is over. So bye bye Ramen, bring on the chicken gambi and mandarins by the bucketful!! Mwahahaha. And how about a ticket to Thailand too?
