I feel alive

Well, after a long time of not doing much, I've finally gotten the energy and drive to get off my ass and do something. On Sunday I woke up, waited around a little bit and then decided to head out. I didn't particularly have any idea where I wanted to go, so I looked in my Seoul guide book and it opened at the spot with the COEX Aquarium. Well, that was perfect. I got on the subway, went there, walked around the huuuuuge mall for about 1 hour until I finally found the Aquarium. It was pretty small, full of screaming kids, but it was still amazing. I saw many different species of shark, mantises, sea horses, and loads of very colourful corals and small fish. It was really really nice. After that I went to a play called "The complete works of William Shakespeare abridged". It was a comedy about all his 37 plays done in 90 minutes. It was OK, but I find they kind of dumbed it down for the Korean understanding and knowledge of slang and western humour. It was still fun to get out and do something like that. Today (Tuesday), I joined a Yoga class. It's free, it's in the building right next to mine, and the ladies there are all super cute. One lady, who spoke pretty well English started talking to me and helped me out with the registration and was explaining to me about the Aerobics class I also want to join. I feel good being out and about interacting with the people around me. On Saturdays there's a cooking class at the nearby Women's Recreation Centre that I'm also going to join. I am so glad there are so many things around me that I can participate in. I finally feel confident and comfortable enough to really immerse myself in all that is around me :).
