First 3 weeks in Seoul

We've been busy since our last post. Our first visitor to our new apartment was my good friend Rox. She spent the night and then we hit the town: we ate lunch at an Indian restaurant, went downtown, and even hit up one of the shopping markets. It was a really good time.

A few days after Rox came for a visit, we went back to Wonju for a farewell party for her and her Brandon, who were headed back to Canada. It was hard to say goodbye to them but we're grateful for the year that we were able to hang out with them.

Our second and last year of grad school has started. I'm taking Managerial Acct. and Marketing Research. B is taking the Acct. class and Mgmt. Info systems. The classes are tougher this semester as we move into the electives. We both have class Tuesday nights and all day on Saturday; B also goes on Wednesdays and I go on Thursdays.

Our jobs are going well, too. B had one of his classes cancelled due to low enrollment, so he's down to 12 teaching hours and 3 working days a week. I'm up to 16 hours and 3 teaching days a week. We both have Tuesdays off so we try to do something fun if we can.

My Marketing class was canceled on Thursday so we went to the Broadway Musical, "Rent." Two of the original characters were still on the cast list, so it was a great experience.
