Independence Day

Its been nearly 2 weeks since my last post.
The world cup is still going strong. America played really well but fell short losing to Ghana 2-1. Donovan is a new hero of mine and because of how well they played it made me wish I could be a soccer player. I actually do hope that I can return to my old form and show my city/country/maybe even the world that I can be an athlete and compete on a certain level.

I am still stuck in Korea though and for the time being I have to endure the time. It passes all too quickly in the short run and too slow in the long run. I have to be here for another year or so I am not sure yet. I wish I could just pack my bags and take the next flight home but here I am.

I quit my job last week. I will be finishing this after school program as of July 28th. I will also take a few sick days between now and then so I will have a little bit more time off. I hate the people I have become surrounded by. I don't know if I am just inviting trouble or if trouble likes to follow me.

In 3 years of Korea I have left one job after staying two extra months for my wife then girlfriend, got booted after completing my 1 year contract. I went above and beyond the called duties since I liked that company. Finally, I signed a contract with an old woman who later sold her share to the head company and after talking to me one time about some negative things they put me in an ugly spotlight eventually leading to my declaration of independence. Win some lose some I guess.

Tomorrow I am headed out the door around 10am to get a private lesson in Yeonsan dong. From there I work with the head Bitch teacher for 4 hours before going back home. I am happy now because my wife also quit her job and she had enough sense to get out before it turned nasty. Her last day was Friday. I hope that the agency pays her on time and in full.

Other than going over to Mike Anderson's house almost every night to play cards, complain about TTI (my company), drink, watch soccer, and play with his kids not a whole lot going on. I am happy to say that I am getting reconnected with some old chums from Somers, Kalispell, and days long past. I just heard from a buddy that I hadn't talked to in 12+years wow i am getting old.

Well time to hit the sack more soon!
