Yesterday was fairly uneventful. First day of orientation, we got our bank accounts set up and the local bank (KEB) in the morning and got complete physicals at the hospital in the afternoon.
I've never had such a complete physical all at one time. They measured our height, blood pressure, took blood & urine samples, checked our eyesight, hearing, and teeth. Apparently, I have to get my wisdom teeth taken out. We'll see about that.
After supper, Michelle and I discovered that we have a small AC unit in our room! We managed to turn it on (though all the buttons are in Korean) so our room is a balmy, beautiful cool temperature. Which is good. Because the rest of the upstairs is hot hot hot.
Apparently today we get to learn all about the Korean culture and language. Very exciting.
The weather is almost EXACTLY the same as Tennessee, only a little bit cooler, but very muggy.
I'm a bit dehydrated because everywhere you go (bank, hospital, training room at the school), they have water purifiers, but their cups are tiny little envelopes. They might be two ounces? Maybe? Very inconvenient to drink out of. I'm going to have to buy a water bottle.
I think that's all for now!
