Well, it's 12:10 AM on Wednesday December 3rd. I'm going to check the website for Hongik University to see if I got called back for an interview...

Boo! No news yet. It still says "If you applied for the position, please check this website on December 3 to see if you are invited for an interview."
They must mean business hours on December 3.

In other news I'm finally moving to another apartment. Unfortunately, it was quite a hassle to get that to happen. The guys who help us teachers out are usually quite easy going and helpful but this time they made me feel really bad about moving. This is primarily because I was the one to decide to move - due to the giant mold creature gaining territory on the ceiling of my bedroom. Of course, they agreed with me that a person shouldn't live in that condition, but it still amounted to additional work for them.
On top of that, I even took it upon myself to meet with a real estate broker to look at (more than a few) properties. I picked a couple nice ones, the first one of which was lost because my school didn't move fast enough on it. The others were, according to my school, too good for me.
"You see," I was told, "teachers compare their house, so you can't have a much better house."
They also thought that my second choice was too far from the other teachers' houses in my neighborhood. This is just a stupid argument. Anyway.
A house very much the same as the one I have now was chosen for me - just around the corner. So, I'll be moving my things in on Thursday.
