Volunteering...

These days I have been busy with Japanese students. Unlike catering when it is all tiring for the body, this is tiring for the mind. Although soon it'll be tiring for the body as well. The Hallyu Wave is truly amazing I should say because this year, again, just like last year, we are preparing a kpop dance cover thing for the farewell party for the girls. We decided that all the guys would do the girl group dances and all the girls would do the guy group dances. To make it easier to remember as the farewell party is this friday! Gggah! Let's do this Canadian buddies!
They have been going everywhere here near my town. The trip to Vancouver could have been so much more fun but it was very limited. The UBC campus is beautiful though. However, I think we spent a little too much time there. They did some volunteering as well at a senior's home. That was interesting. I think both the girls and the seniors had a hard time understanding each other. Yet, I do admit it is good practice for the girls to initiate some small talk.
After this group leaves on Friday, there is another one coming right after. I am so busy that I actually have a nice sleeping schedule instead of a messed up one that summer usually brings o me. That's a nice change I must admit. Well, this is meant to be a short post and now I better start learning these dances. Yay! Sighs... Gonna be tough

Transfer and Communication

So, I arrived in Seoul after a long 14 hour trip. 14? maybe even 15. The layover in Shanghai was brutal to say the least. Well the flight to Shanghai itself was brutal as well. First, there was no tv like i'm used to on long flight travels. Second, My laptop wasn't fully charged, so I couldn't even use it for long as I was saving it for the layover. Third, Food/service on the plane wasn't that great. I got 2 meals and some sort of sandwich snack. Also, I told you yesterday about gate checking in my guitar? Well, that didn't work out well. At least they let me put it in the overhead compartment besides it being a full flight. However, I sat beside a really nice person who helped me. The flight attendants were not really good at understanding English, so the person beside me helped me ask the flight attendants what to do and etc. So the 12 hr flight to Shanghai was brutal with me fighting to sleep or staring into nothingness, attempt at conversation to the perso

Osaka! Takarazuka! Junsu?

So where do I begin? Last time I told you I was going to update in Japan but I ended up not doing that because on the flight to Japan, I made friends with the person beside me. We somehow connected in conversations during the flight over that, before she had to move on to Shanghai, thought we should chill together a little bit more. (Which reminds me that I need to e-mail her). Anyways, the flight over to Korea eventually was uneventful besides the turbulence in the beginning, well landing in Japan was very turbulent as well. The weather was not great at that time to say the least. Landed safely and I was happy to see that my friends had came to pick me up. Keeping it Korean style, decided to take a picture of my arrival/reunion. We caught up with each other on the way to the friend's place I'm staying at, and it really felt surreal for me to be back in Korea. It was nice and welcoming at the same time it was... yup I'm in Korea... kind of reaction. Since my plane lande

Now that I am home

I have been back home for 3 days already. It feels more like a week already because this stupid jetlag is not helping me at all. Today is the 11th already. It doesn't feel like it. Today? Yesterday? well on the 10th, I meant to wake up earlier... like 10 in the morning but instead, I woke at around 4 in the evening. Just in time for the dinner gathering my family had with my aunt and uncle that came by from the other side of Canada. It was nice to see them again but the whole time I was kicking myself in my head because I didn't wake up earlier. Now I am suffering from the consequences... It sucks because outside... there is light already.  I should go to bed because there is another family gathering I have to go to at 9:30am and I have an orientation thing that I have to go to with the volunteering thing I am doing this summer at 1pm... and I think I might have to drive for it. But here's the thing... I can't sleep.  Sleep~ please come to me now... at least for
