*Phone rings*<\/p>\n

GroggySol:<\/strong> “Hello?”<\/p>\n

Foreign Voice:<\/strong> “Hello. I’m sorry for calling so late. I’m calling from Korea and it’s 4:00pm here. What time is it there?”<\/p>\n

ConfusedSol:<\/strong> “1 am”<\/p>\n

Foreign Voice:<\/strong> “Again. I’m sorry. I received your complete application and was just calling to offer you a position working as a camp counselor in an English immersion camp starting July 15th.”<\/p>\n

DazedSol:<\/strong> “Um. Sure. Cool.”<\/p>\n

I’m still a bit confused with a few things…maybe due to the fact that half the information packet is in Korean…but I’m pretty dang sure this is gonna happen! Bought my Lonely Planet KOREA guide<\/a> and am currently on the scout for a “Teaching English as a Second Language” text. Busting my little butt to attain my C-4 working tourist Visa before I leave…. in less than two weeks!<\/p>\n
