A requested update

Hey, hi, hello. 

I'm back after nearly a year.

If I can explain the sudden dip in existence:
I was collateral damage in my ex-bf being doxxed!
All fun times, good stuff, I layed low, lived under a rock, drank some coffee.

And like the cicadas I am back and ready to S C R E A M.

The good stuff first of course.
I still have the cats! Bailey and Stella are still kicking around, getting fat, starting fights with the vet.
I just bought them collars for their trip to their new home: England.

I got accepted into a university there, due to start almost one year from now.
I'm excited, they're oblivious, it's gonna be amazing.

I've been seeing more of Korea, I joined a sports team (Go Gaels!), and I've just generally made a nuisance of myself.

I teach all grades for after school now, 1st - 6th but they're not terrible at all. It's just a lack of communication with the little ones but they like to give me hugs and tell me I'm pretty.

Here's the bad though.

I'm having a lot of trouble with my school.
I mean a lot.
I found out I wasn't registered with the pension office until three months into my employment, I was paid over a week late (for the 4th time,) I cannot get my pay stubs for the life of me and uhhh, oh yeah, apparently I've not been paying my taxes.

It's not as bad as it could be, but I think with the fuss I've been causing I'm less liked by admin staff now. But hey, who cares? I'm leaving in the new year anyway so there's nothing keeping me tied down to the "good teacher" handbook anymore.

I'm gonna (hopefully) make a vlog soon about my trip to ~Dokdo~ over Chuseok, and a video sitting down discussing what's up with my life and all the nitty-gritty.

I also stream now (sometimes) so I'll probably be more willing to talk about everything there while I murder my Sims and play Minecraft.
 
I'll probably update my IG more too.

Blogmas: Sometimes I wonder.

Do you ever stop and think about what life would be like if you took the left path instead of the right? Or what would happen if you put off doing that thing for one more day instead of doing it right now. I'm in one of those situations and I don't quite know what to really do, the roads before me are both grey with fog and I can't see the end of them anywhere. I want to stay in Korea for another year, I really do. In fact I wanted to stay so badly I extended my contract. But staying with my school...? Should I, shouldn't I? Pros and cons, rights and wrongs. What do you do? I have people on both sides and I feel conflicted when it comes to making the choice. After all the choice is ultimately out of my hands anyway, it's not up to me to do that admin work. My head has been bouncing the two sides around all day like a coin in a tin can. It's just too much noise and you can't see the outcome at all anyway. Life is really up in the air and I feel a bit li

Blogmas: On feeling overwhelmed.

I think November and December are hectic months for everyone. It feels like the world is screaming at you to get things done faster, faster, faster. Especially here in Korea. Almost everyone is well versed on the whole 빨리빨리 culture, where everything needs doing yesterday and you'd better not stand still for so much as a second or else an old granny is gonna come swat you out of her way. Sometimes the speed that the world is spinning now makes me want to scream, it makes me feel so anxious and helpless and I question why we're running at all. I'm guilty of doing it to myself too, as dumb as it is. I've been pushing myself harder in the last semester, in a lot of different ways. I picked up violin twice a week, trying to shove myself into playing pieces before the end of the year when half the time I still struggle to read notes, or remember where to place my fingers on the A string. I've been trying to take care of every cat I can find on the street when I still
