Hi Seongja,
It was such a lovely thrill to have your message waiting for me this evening after I finished teaching. I was sorry we could not catch up the other weekend. I was really so busy trying to get all my reports written on my children and to get my planning and preparation for teaching completed before the end of the weekend. We have finished working our Summer Vacation Programme and gone back to 'normal' hours, so I had a lot to get done in a very short space of time. It took me so much of the weekend.
I think you are very good doing your Open University study. It can be quite hard work to study when you are also working and looking after your family home as well. I am very sure that you will have a good semester and achieve excellent results.
In about eight weeks, on 23 October, my contract finishes as I will have been in Korea for 12 months. I have, however, been in negotiations with my employer and I ave now agreed to extend my contract for another 15 months. That is through until February 2008. Actually, I am hoping to stay in Korea much longer than that too!!! I have been so happy here and am looking forward to being here for a very long time.
As you will know, I have been seeing a lot of 회경. We have been going out for over four months now (17 weeks). I was just looking today and in the last 14 weeks there have only been two weekends where we have not seen each other for at least some of the time. Those were the two weekends I was in England. Every other weekend we have usually seen each other for at least two days. Last weekend, when she was with her family we managed to see each other late on Sunday. I know that the more we see of each other the stronger our relationship becomes. I can tell you Seongja that I am so much in love with 회경 and I think that her feelings for me are becoming deeper for me too.
I am looking forward to being able to catch up with you soon. Now that the weather has started to become cooler that will be easier, as I have found the last month or so to be very hot and humid. It has made going out and about quite unpleasant at times. 회경 doesn't like the hot weather either, so we have tended not to go out very much during the day at all. As the weather cools down I am sure she will feel better about getting out in the day time as well.
Have a great week and I will see you soon.
Best wishes,
Paul
