Car crash 💥

Car crash 💥

This is my first time witnessing a car accident. I can see activity inside the bus.  Many police cars, ambulances, and people are gathering, and some officers are working to prevent a second accident. Paramedics are carefully removing the injured driver from the car, which appears to be difficult. The injured person seems to be…

I saw this awesome painting on my walk down those narrow paths. It’s gorgeous, a real eye-catcher, but you wouldn’t easily notice it.  It was such a happy surprise to stumble upon it! I had no idea it was even there. I found this awesome painting path in Busan, you know? Some parts are in…

Okay, let’s hear a story!

It is always a pleasure when someone reads books to children. I understand that I should read to them more often, but it isn’t always easy.  The Yeongcheon library offers a weekly children’s reading service. This week, I was able to bring my children to the children’s section of the library. Fortunately, there were no…

PoomSae

PoomSae

I had anticipated watching a taekwondo match, but unfortunately, it concluded just before my arrival. Many people were practicing Poomsae both inside and outside the stadium. I found it difficult to understand the scoring system and determine the superior competitors. I observed performances from various locations. It appeared to be a judged team competition.  The…

Virtual taekwondo

Virtual taekwondo

Virtual taekwondo’s a new thing, and I’m not quite sure what it is.  I’ve seen some videos online, but I really want to see it live.  It seems safe; nobody gets hurt, and anyone can play, regardless of age or gender. Scoring’s only for hits within the playing area, and there’s no physical contact, which…

Horseback riding

Horseback riding

The weather has been sunny. Recently, I dined at a Chinese restaurant and observed a horseback rider in the distance; this was a novel sight, as I have not encountered such a calming presence in my previous urban residences. While I have seen horses at tourist destinations, the experience here is notably more serene and conducive…

I must leave early this morning to queue at the clinic. I plan to arrive at the building as soon as I am ready. I hope to be first in line. When I arrived, there was only one person ahead of me. The clinic opens at 8 AM. I waited over an hour, making a…

Impression of the transferred job

Impression of the transferred job

My initial impression of the new role was overshadowed by a considerable amount of pre-existing anticipation; I had been pursuing this opportunity for approximately a decade. While invited to a welcoming ceremony, my recollection of the event is somewhat hazy. I received two text messages emphasizing the importance of punctual arrival (4:20 PM) in business…

Required childhood immunizations necessitate a clinic visit.  Furthermore, the family requires a medical examination, and I require intravenous therapy.  Persistent pharyngitis, characterized by cough and expectoration, has persisted since December.  Consequently, an early departure is required. Unfortunately, my preferred clinic does not accept appointment. Following an immediate post-alarm departure, a 15-minute walk led to the…

Days of illness

Days of illness

My daughter appeared unwell after getting off the kindergarten bus on thursday. A fellow passenger informed me she vomited several times on the ride home. She seemed tired and withdrawn. She rested the following days and enjoyed Saturday. I thought she was recovering, but Saturday night she vomited repeatedly, every 30 minutes, throughout the night….
