so i got home from work about 6:30 and i started making some rice. and by the time i finished eating dinner it was already 7:45. then i had to wash my dishes and redd up the apartment. then after 8pm i start emailing which is quite the task. so ill email for one or two hours. ive been getting behind on it...and on my blogging. but as you can see there is not alot of time. and all weekend i really didn't do anything, and yet i still find myself not completing the work i wanted to do for classes. oh well. hahaha.
um this weekend. saturday was well, pretty present in pictures. sunday i finally decided to get my butt out of bed and go to the 10:30 service at the different church - Full Gospel Nowon Church. it was what i was hoping for. though the service only had 2 other foreigners, the rest of the congregation was made up of university students or students who had studied abroad. so it was more my age group. they have a pastor who is from the states. they also have discussion groups after the message, which i really like because you get to meet people and share ideas. again im still interested to discover who is really there for the message and who is there for the english. but i liked it.
they also asked me to be part of the worship team. HAHAHAHAHA....never in america! never, never. i was like, um, i can't sing.they said, you know all the words. um, yeah, but i can't sing. though i will say they dont do much in terms of harmony...so i might be able to. i told them i would think about it. i really kind of want to because hey, where else? and it would make me go to church. but i will give it some time and see if this church is where i would like to stay or not. so funny!
well i was walking home from church and contemplating what to do with the rest of my day when i was stopped by a lady who was handing out church bulletins at the corner (they do this everyday) and i just said annyeong haseyo! and next thing i know she is sputtering off in korean and i am walking hand in hand across the road. i had nothing else to do and i just was like, God, what do you have in store for me? i did recognize the word Uganda, so i figured, hey, something is worth checking out.
so the service was all in korean, very small. but i did meet a ugandan woman who lives here with a friend and her brother. she lives in itaweon (sp?) which is the foreign district. she was so nice! so hopefully we will be friends and i can hang out with her a bit. but i really dont want to go that church. it was in korean. i feel like church is ok to be selfish about. everybody wants the foreigner to go their church. well this foreigner wants a church she can feel supported in and grow in her spiritual life. and she also likes the flexibility to go to the soccer game this sunday. so we will see how this all works out.
so this weekend my cablebox was broken so mr bae fixed it today and when i got home he not only had fixed my cable, but also he bought me a rosemary plant, some other flower plant and a roll so i can hang up my toilet paper roll. haha, its just so funny. oh yes, and batteries for my remote control. that was pure laziness on my part. i kept saying i was going to buy it but why when i really have no reason for a remote? haha.. so anyways, its the pleasant little surprises.
i am really starting to work on my korean. i mean somewhat.
chincha - really?
nado -me too (well what i think the translation is)
shilye hamnida - excuse me
sugo haseyo - which yanny said is like saying do a good job, like you would say to a cashier - im leaving but you have to keep working, so be successful.
little everyday.
