I used my time wisely over the weekend to rest and relax at my place. On Saturday I volunteered at the Boys Orphanage. This is my third time helping out and this time I went by myself.
I met a new friend named Vivek David. He's also Sri Lankan Tamil, he's also from Toronto, Canada, he's also Catholic, and he went to Woburn C.I. That's the same school my sisters went for high school. He's 5 years older than me (so he's 30), and his siblings went to St.Thomas More (same elementary school I went to from JK-Gr.7)! He lived near the area I was growing up in when I was a little kid. It's so strange that we met up at a Boys Orphanage event in Busan, South Korea. Half way across the globe and I still meet people who are from STM or lived in Scarborough. That's crazy. I asked a fellow STM friend and she confirmed that she does know Vivek and his siblings who went to our elementary school. Although, I don't remember his siblings at St.Thomas More, my STM friends seem to be friends with Vivek's brother and sister.
After the orphanage, I met up with Jay and her friend Megan for lunch at a Thai restaurant in Nampo. Warren met up with us while we were shopping. All this time, the weather was very bad. It has been raining non-stop. We were supposed to go to the Musical Fountain show at Daedaepo but that got cancelled for the second time. Instead all of us went to go see Hunger Games at theatres. It was a good movie but it was very predictable, and I didn't even read the novel.
On Sunday, I stayed at home and caught up on Dexster. I am now at the beginning of Season 5. Hopefully I can catch up before the end of this month. As of right now I have 2 months left in Korea! I'm excited, anxious and nervous at the same time.
