I've had the curious "reward" of having my vacation cut short to five days instead of the agreed seven along with week after week of English camps at not one but THREE elementary schools - Gwangnyeong Elementary, Shinjeju Elementary, and Jeju Buk Elementary. It was introduced as a surprise, a fun-filled way of filling up the free time that I was originally very much looking forward too after so many rounds of feeling like wanting to bash my head against the wall a million times over. [Not] surprisingly, those who moaned got entire months of vacation while those of us that remained faithful to the contract, never daring to breach any of the terms, got "rewarded" in this manner. Another little surprise was that since I was "volunteered" into doing these three camps, I would not recieve any regular payment for this (even though I'm not actually supposed to be doing elementary school) and recieve a rather disappointing 10,000 won per day for bus fares. So much for two years of loyalty! 

Well, I caved in and finally decided to go to Seoul during Seollal holiday. 

I've been taking weekend Korean classes at Booktown in Yeondong for the past few weeks.
