This morning, I was awoken at 7am by two children running about after each other screaming. Not impressed. It's a Sunday!!!!!!!! Go outside!
Ha ha! So I've just been bombarded by 5 children and have finally met (rather than just heard) the two kids who live in the flat. So sweet at 1pm! Was given an icecream to eat and then dragged down the stairs to be shown something. What you may ask? Well, they kept pointing at my hair and saying a word (which I could of course not understand). So they took my to a classroom, picked up a spider, pointed it at my hair giggled away! Funny :)
A few interesting points I have learnt so far.
- When accepting something from a person, whether it is drink, food or any object, it is polite to accept it with 2 hands. Always always always.
- You can open a beer bottle with the back of spoon. TRY IT!!! It works brilliantly :)
- You should pour beer for you elders - but I think maybe you pour for the person sitting next to you rather than pouring for yourself... Might have to investigate further!
- Beauty in the eyes of a Korean is a T shaped face. And, flat cheeks are a necessity. At least according to Jo (a girl I work with). Women will get botox in their cheeks to try and achieve this and Jo isn't happy with her face because it is round! One of the first things that was said to me when I arrived was - you have a small face :o) Ha ha! Unfortunately my cheeks are too big. Oh well, can't change that ;)
- most foreigners live in Naun Dong which is, yup, on the opposite side of the city to me.
I am sat here wating for my bed to arrive... Frustrating as I want to have a walkabout... And now there is a crying child next door...
