The train ride back is pretty brutal as, not only are you exhausted and that horrible combination of still slightly drunk/newly hungover, but the train is crammed to capacity and you bought your ticket too late to get a seat.

However, it isn't a long ride and soon enough you arrive back in Miryang, get a taxi, and get up to your room. Completely drained, you climb into bed and sleep the day away.

The next few weeks pass by with you feeling more and more comfortable in your new surroundings and at your new job. At times it can get you really frustrated and homesick, but for the most part, all is going well.

Teaching, while not really what you want to do forever,is turning out to be just like most other jobs; repetitive, unexciting, and easy to ignore when you aren't working.

One day, towards the end of your fourth month in Korea, the director offers you an opportunity. She tells you that there is a group of doctors in a nearby town who want you to come to them a few mornings a week to teach them English. As well, another school in town would like you to come to their school for an hour every evening for another class. Your school offers you 200,000 won/month for the doctor class and 100,000 won/month for the other one. You:

haggle a bit over the pay, but accept both jobs.

decide to turn both jobs down as your current work already leaves you rather tired at the end of the day.

take both jobs, no questions asked.
