So I've been at HGU since Monday, and it's pretty nice here. It seems to be getting cooler, but it's still hot and humid enough to be uncomfortable.

Had my first experience with the Korean's early, early morning prayer (which is going to be mandatory for all non-exchange students... so not me, but maybe I'll try to attend anyway.) It was nice. I think God's been kinda convicting me during this trip about not completely trusting him, so I'm working on that now. I know he's in control of the situation with Hyewon. I'm forcing myself not to think about her too much. Signs point to her being kindof a "player" (excuse the expression) anyway... and I don't like those kinds of games. (although God-knows I really want things to work out between us... I feel like I've written this before)

Listening to Postal Service now. A presentation slideshow played parts of "Such Great Heights" which really put me in the mood for that.

The community showers here make me uncomfortable, but I haven't had to shower at the same time as anyone else yet, so I am ok for now. I've been getting more comfortable with it each shower, maybe by the end of the week I won't be completely bothered by it anymore. Then again, I've heard that there won't be community showers in I-house, and we are moving there next week.

The food here has been getting progressively more weird, but I've made a point of eating kimchi with every meal to help me get used to it. The rice is a life-saver. A chopstick-load of rice dulls the taste of even the craziest flavors. Speaking of which, after the last meal I had, I think I've forgotten how to use a fork. It was the first meal since I've been here for which chopsticks were unavailable and I had a really awkward time eating it.

I wonder what things are going to be like when Hyewon gets here in October...There are lots of good looking girls here, but Idk... I haven't really felt inclined to pursue them. I guess there's just a lot going on. I can't multitask very well, and girls take a lot of energy.

Oh well... it's about time for bed.

"Thanks for the wink."
