You lie, you will always remember your journeys out to the distance asian land. it will forever be engraved in my brain as the place where i finally gained some sense of motivation and self understanding that only solitude and boredom can bring. Dont you love trying to pack everything in a tight spot? It makes you realize how much you really need to live and in the spur of the moment, what you can toss out that you couldnt in 3 years (or two in your case) of living. Materials arent us.
60ftqueenie:
hmmm I'd pack some books, my cd wallet and discman... clothes.. and thats it... photos... having to think about this has made me realise how much I have detached myself from material things... whata relief!

haha i want to see that lady trying to run up the hill. what are these second run movie houses you speak of? i dont know them
yurippitys:
Yeah I got stuck in that blizzard yesterday too. It was freaking ridiculous. My thin ass almost got knocked over. See I would THINK that by being thin I would have less surface area and the wind would just blow around me but noooo. Not to mention I cut my foot on a piece of glass drunk as a skunk on Friday night so I was wearing sandals. All for some taco bell. God our priorities are screwed up.

time for a new entry. lessee, this weekend i went to seoul to do last minute shopping in insadong before i leave in 1 week(!) not much to tell... however, i did have a particularly interesting 20 minutes;
i was crossing the street, had looked both ways when suddenly a guy on a scooter/motorcycle thing comes tearing around the corner at breakneck speed- headed straight...

Ahh yes, having a "Peach Kettle" or six, up on the hill, is a good way to make reality go away! And then some Dim Sum to quell the munchies!!

dear people's moms,
please stop calling your english-teaching sons and daughters out here in scarey-scarey korea and trying to freak us into coming home with all your paranoid propaganda. it's not that bad. no one here is overly concerned. you are being brainwashed, and letting that ignorant texan's media machine put ideas into your head. and to clarify; that james bond movie is a bunch...

yea i should have saved it for when it was unexpected.
and to answer your question. me. i want to drink beer and consume as many products as possible that share the name of my favorite feminin product
boxterjulep:
yes, it's pretty amazing what a difference it makes when you're not in the country that's churning out the paranoia.

Ahhh, High Fidelity is such a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful and yet again wonderful book. I laughed my ass off reading it. Go Nick Hornby! Have you read about a boy? It's also exceptionally hip. I still haven't seen Lost Highway! And I only saw Swingers stoned once. Hmm... I love lazy movie watching weekends. smile

post script: Tell me Amsterdam stories, pleeaase! I went there a couple years ago, it was unbelievable. But I only got to stay for a bit of time... not nearly long enough to absorb the place. telltell. smile

ha. the past few days of class have been awesome. my class is from the seoul campus, instead of the wonju ( where i teach) campus, and they are supersmart and interested in learning. plus, they laugh at my jokes.

class discussions ended up surprising and impressing me. view expressed 9 my class is all men, and 2 women;
*homosexuality; should be tolerated and accepted....

the upstairs neighbors are chanting and sqealing again. i hate them. they've been repeating the same 2 syllable chant approximately every 3 minutes. i keep thinking it will get old, or they'll tire of it. that they'll start a conversation. i might have to go up there. now they are stomping around... god, i really hate them. i feel the same rage building up inside...

Yeah for coming home! Where do you call home? Are you coming home for good? Ya, know, I have no idea why you're in Korea save to teach english. Is that a permanent thing, or just for a certain amount of time? I love your new profile pic, btw. very, very cute smile
recidivi5t:
thai is more complicated than it seems. several similar vowel sounds are distinguishable only by inflection...the "height" of the vowel sound, kind of like how our sentences go "up" for a question - they've got the same thing for syallables... the language has a debatable # of characters as well, between 28 - 37.

but its really pretty looking.

like either of us really give a shit. sorry about the nosy know it all post.

you know? it's true.
wu-tang clan ain't nothin to fuck with.

Hahaha, the dangers of falling pop machines has got to be one of the best commercials. How can someone go through life without experiencing these? The trip was already worth the agony to see the commercials. Yes, I am Air Force and a pathetic excuse for that may I add. Government jobs are almost the same anywhere, just with they would give me some hot shower water. Funny, new years day rolls around and at best, a trickle. What is your #18 reason? Your slacking woman. This is how it starts, first you forget to post, then you forget to take a shower tomorrow morning, then forget to turn in your term paper next fall, then forget to feed your newborn baby and then next you know it, your running a herd of sheep in Scotland wondering what the hell happened? Was it due to the price of wool rising in today's market? Who knows.
