안녕하세요, 영의 세계!
Translation...
Hello, YoungWorld!
Yep, it's your MainMan, OuttaBoundz, givin' y'all a shout from Daejeon, South Korea!
...yes, indeed, I am currently 14 hours away from the Time Zone of my birth...and I can feel every bit of the difference. But, alas, difference is GOOD...because, in this case, difference is GROWTH. I have decided to "climb outta the crib" (so to speak) and take a look around the world for the next year. I'll be teaching English at a local high school in the City of Daejeon. But, as I TEACH...I'm sure I'll be LEARNING just as much about South Korea, the City of Daejeon, Korean culture and customs, AND....myself!
Without a doubt, the decision to come to South Korea took MUCH soul-searching. To date, it was probably the most soul-searching I've done. But, every so often, I find myself craving a new challenge...and this is the challenge God has presented me with at this point. So, here I am. Ready to accept. I DO NOT know WHY, but I DO know that I am here now....and it is definitely for a reason. And one reason that is pretty easy to figure is to be a looking-glass for all these ghettoGEEKS back in the States! So, y'all stay tuned...and make sure you got ghettoGEEKS bookmarked...'cause we are going to continue tradition and keep bringin' you that "MachineGunFunk" the only way we know how!
So, let's start now....
Don't take the phrase "Follow your Heart" lightly.
I have attempted to do just that for much of my life...and when I look back, it has not been to my detriment. It has actually been to my benefit. In MANY instances, it will take courage...and some people will call you "crazy." To be honest, I thought was "crazy as hell" for jumpin' on the series of flights to get here...but guess what? I kept jumpin'.
...and I landed on my feet...and then I put one foot in front of the other...and went to Jeonju University for ESL training...and then to Daejeon....and then to PC World....where I then walked to a computer....and sent this message to all of you! Moral? Keep walkin'...keep goin'....don't stop!
I've only been in the country for four (4) days at this point. Once I get myself situated, and I get my camera and computer operable, I'll be sending photos and such to all y'all ghettoGEEKS StateSide!
Onward.....March!
