Monday:
Ben is back, and having completed his 2 years at
Mcgill, is now a "master" of jazz! So, the end of the
crazy commuting back and forth for him (although his
wife and children are still in Canada). On the bus
ride this morning, I regaled him with stories of my
backpacking trip, and he regaled me with stories about
his kids.
I thought this was kind of weird: the office assistant
handed me a paper all in Korean today. Ben translated
it for me-- apparently all the professors are supposed
to get a health check up every 2 years. So I guess I
have to get a physical? I'm kind of curious about
what they do with the results . . . why do they care
anyway? Very strange.

Wednesday:
Two nice surprises today-- first, my friend Annabelle
decided that she wanted to join salsa class, so now
I've got someone to conspire with between dance
combinations. Second, I got a text from Charlotte
saying that she was in Seoul and asking if we could
meet for dinner (actually at first I wasn't even sure
who it was, since it didn't come from her original
phone number, and she only signed it CM!) Charlotte
is leaving on Saturday to do some travelling through
China and Mongolia on her way back to England. And
while I'm sad to see her go of course, she has assured
us all that she'll be back in September at the latest.
I am incredibly jealous however, that she's going to
be in Toronto in May visiting her sister, who is doing
some kind of an internship there. (Though I suppose
it's not going to be too long til I make my way home
too . . .) Anyway, Charlotte has coincidentally chosen
a restaurant right beside our dance studio, so after
class, Annabelle and I went to meet Char plus her
parents at Buddha's Belly for some Thai food.
Afterwards, Jenny joined us for drinks at a great
little restaurant/bar across the street. It turned
out to be a fun and unexpected evening!
