Today's lesson in Hangul:
Bu-dong-san:
n; a real estate agency.


Apartment hunting in America? Not much fun.
Apartment hunting in Korea? I'm ready to kill someone.

I ran out of time, not from fault of my own, but from the school's inflexibility.
They cannot put another deposit down until March 11th, as that is when my lease ends.
Okay, understood.
I made amends with having to drop 500,000 won (around $440) to hold a place til March 11.
Cool.
So I thought.
Now, we're in the "the owner doesn't want to contract with a school."
Okay.

So, now what?
Well, we get ahold of another Bu-dong-san for a separate apartment in the same building.
They're trying to finagle shit with my school now; so here I sit, twiddling my thumbs.

I'm wondering if I can keep up with this more in 2010 than I did last year.
Well, that's certainly a thing to ponder.
