Since its just over four weeks since the new year break, I did not expect the news I got today - I have three days off next week. What to do with this newly discovered five day weekend is open to suggestions, it snuck up so sneakily that I have nothing planned. It's a pretty random holiday. Officially it's the Tomb Sweeping Festival where everyone has to go back to their original home town and spend a day with their family (and ancestors), cleaning grave stones, cutting grass and carrying out various rituals. From what I can gather, people seem to look forward to it even though it's a lot of work (according to some girls in my 'table manners and placement of cutlery' class today.) But since I don't have any family buried here or pray to my ancestors, and it's a fairly 'family only' deal, I still need to figure out something worthwhile to do instead. (something that includes avoiding overly friendly Korean guys would be preferable)
