Utilities

While we live at Kosin rent-free, we are required to pay utilities for our apartments. As I mentioned earlier, I've sort of been competing with myself to see how long I can go without turning on my heat. Today I saw the fruits of that labor.

I got my gas bill this morning. It was 1,700 won--or roughly $1.50--for a month of gas. Our mailboxes are just slots in the entrance to our building, so I took the liberty of comparing my bills with others. Emily's bill was a close second to mine with 2,000 won, and after that the next closest was 25,000 won.

I seriously might be able to make it through the winter.
