JUMP! JUMP! For Your Love!

Christmas past us by so fast here in Korea. Teaching the next day was difficult because back home we would have the day off and Christmas would seem more like a holiday. However, when in Korea we must do what the Koreans do. After school on Friday I napped and then headed to Nicole's to have a chill night eating in, watching movies and chatting. Our friend Sehun came over to hang out with us as well, which was nice since he just got back from the US a week before Christmas.
Saturday was also a chill day of sleeping in and not doing much. Nicole and I headed to the Guwol-dong area for dinner and drinks. We ended up staying out until the wee hours of the morning, but that is pretty much a typical weekend here in Korea anyways.
Sunday I slept in and then headed into Seoul with Nicole to see JUMP with some other friends. It is a non-verbal martial arts dance performance. We ended up getting to the show just on time, but by the time we had bought our tickets and walked down the stairs to the theatre we had missed the first couple minutes. The show was fantastic, funny and with no speaking it was easy to understand. After the show some of the people we went with stayed in Seoul for food, but Nicole, my friend Rebekah and I decided to head home. On the way to the train station I bought 4 'pirated' movies for 10,000 won. I couldn't pass it up even if it's against the law to sell and probably buy them :) I will definitely be heading back to the Insa-dong area again to do more movie shopping.
Monday and Tuesday I had to go to school, but I had no classes, so I just sat in the office bored all day. I managed to watch a few TV shows and a couple of movies, but the boredom still existed.
