Fainting

That noise every morning will no doubt drive me mad before we leave here. Another OK night on the slab they call a bed. No breakfast today as I had my medical exam. Which meant nothing to eat or drink until probably lunch time. Lame.

Todays schedule was our medical check-up, a lecture about english camp and task based learning and then a Korean movie in the evening. The medical check-up went OK. There was of course lots of waiting about. I had to pee in a cup, get some blood taken, take an eye test (which I totally cheated at) and get weighed. After the blood being taken I was a little bit light on my feet. But after cannon-balling about 4 cartons of apple juice I was back to normal. Then a long wait for the x-ray bus. It broke down yesterday so there was a back log of people. Everything went OK, nothing looked out of the ordinary so Im not being sent home yet.

The lectures were oh so boring though. Except for one Australian guy who just tried to make lewd jokes and was very proud of the fact he never tried to fit in to Korean culture, didn't know any Korean people and generally didn't like the place. Might be me soon.

After some dinner, rice, rice and more rice with a measly piece of meat, I dodge the movie and decide to head back to the dorm to settle down and watch some shows. Another early night as we have a Korean cultural experience tomorrow. Hmmmm.
