So these past weeks have been pleasant enough. Been keeping busy with work and when I'm not working i'm busy playing. Working up a nice fatty pair of callouses on my hands from all the golf.I've even taken plenty of mountain hikes and bikes around the area, but I don't feel like saying too much on it right now.
Actually, its a pretty somber day. Recently, one of our friends had an accident. While Riding bikes out of town, her mini-street bike collapsed underneath her. She fell to the road and apparently hit her head pretty hard, since she was bleeding out of the ears. Pretty traumatic for her boyfriend who was riding with her.
They were able to get assistance and make it to the hospital in 8-minutes flat, but she's going to be in intensive care for a while. It was a double shock for her Korean parents though because they first met the American boyfriend at the hospital, covered in her blood.
A pretty strong first impression i'm sure.
So it falls on me to explain to his co-teachers and principle why he won't be in the rest of the week. A task none too appreciated by them.
As for her, she's stable. Stable enough to kick the nurses and fight her way to the bathroom to take a piss, But still confused enough to talk all in English even though the doctors cant understand her. She'll be mover to Seoul this weekend for better care and some of us may pay her a visit as well. Its just one of those kind of things that sours all the good stuff of late. But she'll be fine afterall.
