I don't have much time to write. But there are some things that have happened.

As it turned out, Young-sook was somewhat smitten with G-cups. I don't know that she's cured of Duke, but she's on her way.

Today I took the first step upon a decision that I made while G-cups was here. I have decided that if, at the end of November, I still have no health insurance, I will leave.

As it is not appropriate in Korea for an employee to take his grievances directly tot he boss, I told Kim Seong-eon this today. We shall see what will become of it. There are, however, some very tempting prospects to this: I believe that I can afford a ticket to Singapore and from there to London, perhaps from London home. Once home I can look forward to getting a shitty job, but the company of my friends. Not to mention a visit to Oberlin and all that that entails.

Anyway, I do not expect to have to make good on the threat. When I get a chance I'll talk to Mr. Im and express that plus a couple of other things: thanks for the hot water heater and please, I'll pay my own phone bills.

Finally, yesterday I received my trial package from home. It arrived unopened on Nov. 9.
