2nd Week In Korea

OK, so apologies I haven't done a blog in a while; I have been getting over my jetlag and so I don't go online after work as much.This week I have been going into work a little bit early (when I say early I mean 2pm lol) and my lessons have gone a lot better this week. I hope they will just get better and better. I am still loving the social side, just been for a night out actually! I used my washing machine for the first time yesterday and I was just sat on my bed and out of the corner of my eye I see water flooding my laundry room (it didn't come into the bedroom because there is a little ledge thing)!!!It was deep water but then I realise that there is a drain on the floor, like the drain in my bathroom for te shower water, and sure enough that is what is supposed to happen- yup the washing machineis supposed to empty all the water out onto the floor, flooding my laundry room floor! I also tried a new alcoholic beverage called mocali (not sure on the spelling); it is a rice wine and is reeeaaaallly strong!!!!Another fact, police cars always seem to have their flashing lights on even when there is no emergency; I saw one that stopped at a red light despite having the emergency lights on :s. Also it is illegal for Koreans to gamble; there are casinos that will only let foreigners in. Some foreigners got deported because they were doing casual poker nights at home on a regular basis because they didn't know it was illegal!!!Tonight I went to a salsa club which was fun but me and my friend are going to take lessons later in the year so we don't feel as ridiculous lol!I also tried a cocktail in a bag, where you buy these flourescent drinks in a bag for around a pound and you just walk the streets with them (will upload some photos of them)!Well as usual I am sure there is loads more that I can never remember when I sit to write this thing, so that's all for now!!!!
