One can never have enough Won

The Euro to Won exchange rate is actually pretty good right now (about 1,500 Won to the Euro) but unfortunately my bank doesn't really care about that and decided to brush me off with a 1,300 Won to the Euro rate. Still, it could've been worse, and from what I've heard I will be paying the actual exchange rate when I go to the ATM in Korea.
I didn't want to be without any local cash on my first day(s) though, so I decided I should have at least some Won on me.
In related news; I am super excited to leave for Korea! I've bought some children's books, downloaded an entire English Language Course (for grade school children), got a photobook about the Netherlands and even PAID FOR A DOWNLOAD of a movie about Holland. Most of the stuff I'll have to take with me is accounted for, and I can probably pack on tuesday. From then it'll only be six more days until I leave for Korea. It's getting a bit scary, but the curiosity is definitely still taking the upper hand.
Now if only I could find a friggin' laptop before that time comes....
