I got paid

I got paid today. I would say I got my first paycheck, but they actually just wired the money to my account at the end of the day. The cool thing is that over here it doesn't take forever to clear the banks. As soon as they sent the money I was able to withdraw it.

I did find out that for the first two months they are withholding 200,000 won. Apparently this is to cover them in the event that I run away. I get the money back at the end of my contract, in addition to one month's pay. It was offset this time by the fact that I had overtime from doing the parent's day.

Now that I have some money I will be able to venture out and visit other places. Hopefully I can get some cool video to post here.
