I've started playing Dungeons and Dragons. I guess that it isn't really surprising. The idea of playing was always there in the back of my mind and I think that it makes sense with all of the other dumb hobbies I've had over the years (Magic the Gathering and World of Warcraft in particular). It's just funny to me that I started playing here in Korea, but my co-workers said they were going to start and it wasn't something that I could turn down. Anyway, now you know how I'm spending my Thursday nights.

Translation
I should study.
I took a TOPIK practice exam last night and realized that I am nowhere near as good at Korean than I want be at this point. My real problem is that I just don't know enough vocabulary. So, I've decided to start working a lot harder on it. I have a list of vocab that I need to study and I'm going to start hitting it hard. When the winter TOPIK comes around, I should hopefully be ready.
The past few weeks have been a little hectic for me. At work, I had to do the summer camps we had on top of my regular work schedule, so I have been an absolute mess for the past while. The extra classes ended on Friday though, so now I can finally get back on track with my life, which means going to bed at 4:00AM and sleeping in until 2:00PM the next day.
is waking up at 1:00 PM and then realizing it's too early, then going back to sleep and waking up at 4:30.
The phone I got right when I got back to Korea decided to malfunction last night. I haven't dropped it or anything, it just stopped working. Luckily, it's on a warranty and they can fix it. Otherwise, I would have to get my fifth phone in the sixteen months at I have lived in Korea.
So, it's really early in the morning and I don't have to be at work until 3:30 so I feel like I should do something with my day. I'm going to head into the city and buy a new backpack since there's so much time. I'll probably snap a few photos as well. There are a few problems, since I have never taken the bus I'm planning to take. I'm also not sure if the store is still open, but I figure that I might as well.
I'm saying this because I woke up to three mosquito bites and I just spend the last five minutes trying to hunt the damn insects in my room. It isn't that humid yet though, and I'm glad it isn't raining like I know how it will be later on in the season, but I just don't enjoy the Korean summer very much. It's just a matter of time until I'm going to be scratching mosquito bites and sweating my ass off nonstop.
