I guess I'm still in stage 1 of the 12 month expat. I still feel very much in a foreign place even though I can find my way around the neighborhood. I like Korea. Lots of things are still new to me here but I haven't been taking near as many pictures as I was during the first two weeks. I miss home but I'm not homesick. My job is also much more enjoyable here. There is no traffic to sit in here; I walk almost everywhere. The food is still interesting and new as well.
Oh yeah..the food
I'm not sure if I can explain it very well but I've been having excessive hunger in the evenings. My blood sugar was 298 this morning! I had a full serving of rice & curry for dinner last night along with a peanut butter & jelly sandwich, a bowl of ramen and countless creme filled cookies. I just keep on eating with no control. Tonight I've had rice & curry, a pbj sandwich, and a few cookies. I am going to check my blood sugar before bed and make sure my levels are under control. I really want to eat more right now but I've forced myself to stop. Tomorrow morning is kiwi yogurt for breakfast..it's kinda yummy.
I'm trying to focus on something other than eating. I need to study for my Korean lesson tomorrow. If only I could convince myself that there are no more cookies..

Hey! Im not sure if you're still or Korea or not, but I am also a type 1 diabetic and I stumbled across your blog while looking up living in Korea with diabetes... I am going to be moving to Korea in a little over a month and have about a million questions for you...if you have the time! Well, not a really a million, but would like to know how you cared for your diabetes while in Korea, how easy it was to get supplies, doctors, costs...etc. If you would be willing to answer any questions I would greatly appreciate it! I can be contacted at enger.amym@gmail.com
