Two months and two weeks

So I guess I'll start with the facts, just the facts. Fact is, its been just over two months, and I'm finally settled in. I've made my much anticipated E mart run, spent far too much, set up a bank account here in Korea, gotten over the whole honeymoon bit with the excessive drinking, realized a few things about myself, and started not needing everything I used to have back home. And its been good so far. Some of the people I'm getting to know are really cool, and I'm finding niches to crawl in and out of as needed.
Work is kinda stressful, if only by proxy. Two Korean teachers quit, and two more just went on leave (one medical one matrimonial). We're down to three VERY stressed out Koreans, and I'm in there thanking God that none of them have access to firearms. I mean, being Korean is stressful enough. Your whole life is lived either for your parents or your kids (minus a few years in college), and its even worse if you're a woman, so these three ladies must be absolutely frazzled!! As far as the Megook-in are concerned (Americans), its not such a big deal for us, but it has invaded the atmosphere.
As far as the Americans at my school go, its an interesting setup. I get along with all of them, and they seem like a cool pair of guys, but they tend to do thier own thing and I tend to do mine. One of them is there seemingly out of need, and is even more fet up with this current school than he is with having to work for others in a very lucrative game. He's the one that keeps butting heads with the management, and at times everyone who's not foreign. There are days when I look at him and think, "There's really no reason to be so damn confrontational." He'll dish it out to everyone and anyone, sometimes seemingly for sport. To take a line from Will Ferrel, "He's an angry elf!" But aside from the pent up agression, he's a cool guy. He's also really knowledgeable on all things teaching.
