Off again
After about a month-and-a-half of continuous work--except on Christmas Day--I pretty much paid my dues and am now on my first day of an early Chinese New Year break. I plan to go to Seoul, but ticket prices are more than double, as everyone is traveling during this time of year. It just doesn't make economic sense for me to go when everyone is going, and get slapped with a super-inflated bill, especially when I am free to fly any other time of the year. The problem is that my friend in Seoul only has this time off from his practice, as Koreans observe the Chinese calendar as well. If I go then, we will have time to spend together and play catch up; it has been 8 years. I should go to Wing On Travel to look up some rates, then go buy myself a down jacket, so I don't freeze my ass off in Seoul.
