Earth Moving

Well... I can now say I lived through an earthquake!!
 
Unfortunately, I didn't even feel it. The epicenter of the quake at 8:56pm on Saturday was about three hours east of Seoul. It measured 4.8 on the Richter scale. No real damage was done but it did rattle a few nerves. It was the 8th-strongest quake in Korea since such data began being measured (in 1978).  There were three aftershocks, which again I didn't feel, that measured only 2.0.
 
So that was it. The earth moved and I think I was in a bar with some friends drinking soju. Story of my life.

A new year... a new beginning

I'm happy to say that I have very easily adapted to 2007.  So far, so good.  I had company in my apartment for almost three weeks with my friend Bryan looking for a new job. He found one but the school didn't offer to put him up in a hotel until his apartment became available. A little fishy in my opinion but it's all ended up well. Bryan and I didn't end up killing each other, and I think we're actually better friends!
 
With a new year comes new beginnings.  I'm not what this year will bring but I'm hoping, whatever it is, it's a good one. All I know is that with a little hard work and determination, it'll be whatever I make it. I can't ask for too much more, really. I have a roof over my head, money in my pocket, health, happiness, family and friends. I'm enjoying me time in Korea and am actively involved with the international community. First, I am doing some PR work for the Seoul Players, and English-language theatre group, whose next production starts February 1st. And now I've taken on organizing a Valentine's Day  Speed Dating event under my PamPR logo. Speed dating is not something that is really done here and people are very curious as to how it'll play out. So am I, to be honest! If this one goes well, we will organize one for March's White Day which is celebrated here, another romantic themed holiday.
 
So 2007 has been extremely busy so far but I'm still taking some time for myself with Hapkido, dinner with friends and reading. Work is going well but of course, I have decided to look at another market. If you know of any PR/Marketing jobs in Hong Kong or Buenos Aires, let me know! I may stick around these parts yet for another year or so, but it's so hard to say right now. I'm a little up in the air. 
 
I've attached some pictures of an outing last week with some of my co-workers. There was a lot of soju involved  so I apologize in advance.
 
HAPPY 2007 everyone!
