Random, update, cds…

Just a warning, I barely know where this is going to go. Ok, you’ve been warned, enjoy~

Ok first I’m ok…kind of. My knees and well legs have been giving me issues. I tripped a few times last week and my knees hated me so Thursday afternoon they started hurting. Friday morning let’s just say I was barely walking. Bending was painful. I was in tears for like an hour before I even got out my place to work. Lovely way to start the day. Also, the stairs were torture. Felt like I was ripping my legs apart. Better yet if I just sawed them off right then would have felt better. *sigh* The pain…and no I didn’t take any pain meds.

Why?

Well, I’ll tell you soon.

Saturday went to the doctor for a check up the school needed. This is why I didn’t take any pain meds. Didn’t want something weird coming out in my blood test. My co-teacher and her husband picked me up. I met him for the first time while he was taking me to the doctor. Nice…Well he needed a check up too. Kill two birds with one stone.

He’s nice.

My blood pressure was slightly high. I’m surprise it wasn’t off the meter. Kinda have a lot going on right now. Also was told to rest my legs and keep the propped the rest of the weekend.

Instead of dropping me off like 2 blocks down the road. I seriously have a ton of doctor offices and pharmacies within 2 blocks, let alone further out. There’s more. I pass at least 4 pharmacies just walking to the taxis and that’s like a 6 minute walk. Anyways, they treated me to brunch basically since none of us have eaten yet.

While eating, her husband started asking a lot of questions. Which was kind of weird because well…I don’t really have guys ask questions too often. *shrugs* But it was all good. He was just wondering what made me want to come to Korea and actually decide to do it. Since I’m here alone, what I do with my time and stuff. The normal things.Then he was like “find a good Korean man and stay.” 

Yep. Once again. I would if I could.

I’m honestly probably not out enough for one to even take up a liking to me. I go to work, go to the store sometimes and come home 5 days a week. Weekends, now I barely leave home unless it’s a concert and I’ve slowed down on those a lot.

After having incidents with ahjummas grabbing my butts and stuff. Ahjusshis trying to hug, pull me with them, or take pictures after being told no. Yeah no thank you. It’s made me avoid a lot of people in general. I know I’m safer at home. 

If I find a dude, more like him find me, then fine. If not, well ok. Can’t have it all.

Though it was funny how he started thinking about guys he might know. Asking if I liked older guys. Um, yes. I don’t date anyone younger than me. They have to be older. 

Anywho~ oh the cds

Well, see since I came here I bought a good bit of cds. Not a ton, but a decent amount and over the past few weeks I wondering if I would send them all home or…give some away to my students. Just keep a few I know I can put into a carry-on bag and give the rest away. My computer doesn’t even have a cd-rom drive and I don’t have a portable one. The cds would never be used. My radio back home is…in storage now? Or probably gone. Heck I don’t even listen to cds anymore. I could use the main computer that we have back home and export them all.

Just thinking about it now pushes me more towards just gonna give away most of my cds and save myself money on shipping them. Feels like I wasted a lot of money.

Ok I don’t see it as a complete waste, because I like the artists and want to support them. Now, I’m just asking myself, what’s the point? They are going to be making more money than me. This year has shown how messed up the kpop world still is. It was messed up since the beginning, mellowed out, then got all messed up again. Artists in 3 years are making less than what I make in one year.I don’t even make a lot of money. I struggle with what I make a month, how the heck? That’s like me going three months off of one payday. I would be starving with no lights or anything. *shivers*

Now, I might as well keep what I have. I mean I spent money on it anyways and would probably have spent more back in the states and had to wait like a month to get it. So I’ll send them with clothes and stuff. Maybe next weekend. I need to get things out of here.

Also, I’m just not into it all anymore. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m in the country now, no it’s been happening for awhile. I’ve been into kpop over 10 years now. The new groups are just well new groups that are basically babies. Same beats, concepts, and everything else being recycled and mixed up here and there. Woo~ so exciting Like give me a break and stop popping up like 20 new groups a month. They do that; sometimes you might not hear about them all, but trust me groups are debuting all the freaking time here. Most you won’t even know about. They come and go quicker than the seasons or the dyeing of hair in this country. I’ll stick to my older groups and call it a day. 

Oh, my legs are okish…I can’t bump my legs for awhile. One knee like popped into place Sunday night and the other Monday morning. So much pain disappeared, but then my thighs felt like I was working them out for months non-stop. So, it was like I had to learn how to use my legs again Monday. Stairs were still kind of painful but not as bad. Now (it’s Wednesday) I can do stairs fine. There’s a slight pain but it’s nearly painless. Thighs are still painful. They feel all tense. I also can’t squat without killing myself. Went to do it today without even thinking and the pain was awful. I can bend my knees and get on the floor to kneel. Though can’t kneel too long either. Everything is sensitive. It’s like everything is shifting in my body adjusting itself. Bleh.

I just remembered I should really get more iron pills too. -.-

Anyways, I should sleep. More work tomorrow.

Until next time~
