Back to a busy Calm

I hath returned the Land of the Morning Calm and it hasn't quite been calm per say.. I've been mostly busy with cleaning and fixing up our apartment or with wedding plans or figuring out visa info etc... I am currently waiting to go to Japan to get my E-2 work visa in a couple weeks. When I visit the states I can acquire my F-2 visa which gives me much more freedom in Korea to work wherever and choose even how many jobs I'd like to work at legally.

My job is going well. The kids are good mostly, my boss and the teachers are great.. I have a small room with empty walls so I ought to jazz the room up a bit with helpful things for the kids soon.

Suyoung and I went to Haeundae beach in Busan last monday...so that I could propose. The water was FREEZING but we enjoyed our time together alone anyway on the crowded beach. We then showered off, ate some ramen and chicken, and took a stroll on the boardwalk along the rocks lining the ocean. She kept saying everything was beautiful, so I chose a spot with a nice background, asked a stranger to take a minute video of us, and I dropped my knee. She was very shy to have others watching and super surprised. She had no idea why I suggested to go there. I win.

There doesn't seem to be much else to share other than to post some photos and video maybe..

Love you guys, Brandon.
