Well its back to work for me starting tomorrow afternoon, its been a pretty sweet winter holiday even though I did not leave Seoul for some warmer, more attractive or popular SE Asian destination.

In sum:

9 glorious days away from work
2 long nights out in Sinchon (1 very happy new years eve)
2 free bottles of rice wine
1 book finished
2 books started
5 climbing sessions (3 open blisters)
6 letters written and mailed
1 mountain scramble
2.3 korean language workbook lessons completed
1 less middle east despot
0 karaoke room visits
3 very well-done grilled cheese sandwiches
58 tiny little ants extinguished
