Hmm... Huh?!
My Korean Dictionary / phrasebook came today. It's only little, but certainly handy. I've been looking for a full-on Korean dictionary for a while now (and yeah, this mostly stems from Dragon Hunter) but haven't been able to find a really good one so I settled for this. It's good enough for the basics (which is a good place to start ^_^)...
I've learnt how to write 'gasarasrevolution' in hangul (Is there no end to my talent?!). I still completely don't understand the language (apart from what I've picked up in Dragon Hunter - which isn't really helpful in real life!) but I do want to try and get to grips with it - even if it's just a little. But it's complicated and hard~~!
Oh, and I want to wear a hanbok ^_^ I know, I come out with the oddest things sometimes...
Aside from more Korean-ness, today has brought with it more rain and more work. The assistant manager at the shop I work in was really concerned that I wouldn't make it home if the roads flooded (I live in a small village out in the wilderness ^_^ The rivers often burst their banks in bad storms and then the roads get blocked...). She made me phone home to make sure that it wasn't too flooded! Bless.
Actually, that caused oddness... I was sitting downstairs in the staff room while I was having my lunch and I decided to call my sister. I mean, I know you can't get any signal down there but I tried anyway... She answered and I started asking if she knew if the roads were clear but after about three seconds my phone cut off. I figured I'd finish my lunch (I had a mini cheesecake - that was more important ^_^) and then go back up and use the phone in the office to call her back. So I sat there, happily eating my cheesecake-of-wonder when Karen called from upstairs that there was someone on the phone for me. I glanced between the stairs and my cheesecake, hesitating, then finally gave into sense and trudged up to the office.
Who had called? Jayme. She had a shake in her voice and was almost in tears... When I'd called her all she had heard was a muffled few seconds of a garbled message and then the line went dead. She was so concerned that something had happened to me that she was nearly crying with worry. I reassured her that I was fine and felt awful that I'd scared her. I mean, it wasn't my fault, but I probably should have called her straight away instead of focussing on my cheesecake ^_^
I gave her a big hug when I got home (the roads were fine after all) and we laughed about the stupidity of it. But I really can understand how it must of sounded to her. Bless. ^_^
So there we are. My day consisted of hangul, rain, cheesecake and not being kidnapped.
It was a nice day.
P.S. It rains in Korea during summer just like it does here, too. ^_^
