Desk warming no more

It has officially been my vacation for three days. Also meaning I successfully completed my three weeks of desk warming! Ok, fine. I successfully completed two weeks and two days of desk warming. I didn't feel too well my third week and only ended up going to work Monday and Friday. Regardless, my time desk warming is no more so bring on the vacation time. Unlike many other teachers here who are also on vacation throughout these months, I unfortunately am not going home or taking any exciting trips. I've decided to use this year to save and pay off as much debt as possible. With this "responsibility" comes boredom and literally having nothing to do. In preparation for my two weeks of vacation I've spent some time figuring out what to do. If you ask me I have a pretty good list going:

1. Buy blender, check.
2. Make hummus, currently in the process, just taking a break. Stay tuned for a future Kooking in Korea blog post.
3. Help keep kitten and guinea pig alive while owners travel, check check. although I didn't check on them today.
4. Go to Dr. Fish, hopefully this weekend.
5. Finally eat at Vatos, again hopefully this weekend.
6. Continue to work on my financial planning course through coursera. One of the best decisions I've made in a really long time.
7. Make falafels. Anyone know a good recipe?
8. Finally make my cork board, thanks to all my friends who enjoy wine, I finally (hopefully) have enough corks!
9. Catch up with all the shows I've missed by not having a computer, almost there.

Wine Tunnel - basically self explanatory, a tunnel where you can walk through and drink persimmon wine.

Does Duffy know about this?

Girls Generation - Dancing Queen

I originally heard this song maybe a month or two ago while in a store shopping. At the time I didn't understand why I was humming along, but once I heard the chorus it was clear. After asking around, apparently Girls Generation tried to release Dancing Queen in 2008, but surprisingly (not really) ran into legal issues. I'm assuming things were cleared up because five years later here we are! Also, I didn't actually research this. It's just what I've heard through the grapevine.
