Deserted...

Got to the office a bit early today - 7:50! - There is nobody here... 8:55...1 person, "Why are you early?"- HuH!" 8:06 - "1 more person "Why are you early?"- HuH!"  8:10 - No one else here yet...

So it appears that the CEO went on a business trip so everybody is having a lie in!!! - Why did no one tell me?

But found my mouse sabotaged this morning - So who did that?

I have decided to learn Chinese!!!

I have decided that Korean is just too hard to learn, so I am giving up and I am going to start to learn Chinese instead. I realize that it won't be quite as useful , while I am working in a Korean company... but hey... at least it is another string in my not so useful bow...

I have started already

我开玩笑

it is so easy to learn... I reckon I will be fluent by the end of the year, then I can start on the various chinese dialects...

快乐愚人节

감사합니당~

Recently I have seen people sign off their email with 감사합니당... instead ok 감사합니다...

Obviously the meaning (thank you) is the same... but does any one know why... is it another korean cute 'thing' and ehere does it come from?

Comment please. ..

해피 화이트 데이!

Today is white day, I hate white day it is a commercial, bastardisation of the calendar and not only do I have to figure out something to buy my wife - who doesn't like chocolate or sweets - but this year I have the added burden of getting something for the girls in the office... and as white day is exactly 1 month after valentines day (Girls buy chocolate for boys) I have to give gifts back an to make matters worse there are 14 females in my office (Yeah like thats a bad thing!) So a small box of chocaltes is about 4,000\ times that by 14 and... well its 56,000\ more than I want to spend!

So after several days pondering this problem I found the solution 1 pack containing 4 bars of chocolate 4,000\ x 4 = 16,000\ + (and this is why I love Korea) plastic presentation bags with gold ties (15) 1,000\ cute cat shaped post-it notes (loads) 1,000\ + 30 mins to write a message on the post-it notes stick them on the chocolate bars and put them in the bags and tie them up... and job done! - 18,000\ and 14 girls get a personal gift from me for white day... - You may think I am tight but the way I look at it - I just saved my self 48,000\

HAPPY DAYS!

The message I wrote on the notes was - 해피 화이트 데이 ~ 로버트 x - and I think they look really good..

Just need to get the wife something.. I am thinking a plant - I had a look online for a florist and 80,000 ~ 210,000\ for a bunch of flowers put me right off that idea - (Ok - I admit I am tight!)
