| I MADE A YEAR!!:-) |
Well, May 19th has come and went. But I did it! I made a year and this next upcoming one looks promising. I am going to get back into blogging now that things have settled down. I am discovering new bookstores and buying new books like there is no tomorrow!:-) But I was researching the Korean War and found this interesting site. If you know this already, bravo...if not, now you know.

 Taking a trip to Japan was what the doctor ordered! Had great sushi and discovered some new used bookstores! Also I got lots of exercise! Just wanted to share some pics to share some of what I saw. |

| My lovely fiancee is back!!:-) |
| I am a happy camper now that I have my wonderful SO back in Daejeon. Also my SO brought me back a laptop for a Valentine's Day gift! Whoohoo!! We were just noticing that most coffee shops are attended by chicks...when guys do show up they are surrounded by chicks...lucky them!;-) Enjoying a hot chocolate then back to my pad to do laundry. Then a quiet time at home reading and watching CSI...then back to the grind of kiddies. Off to go surf the web some more!!:-) |

| walking to Expo Park today... |
It has been a long time since I've felt like taking a walk. As I was walking, soaking in the sun and seeing life around me, I noticed the sky was very unsmoggy, and there were birds singing away. I saw two Gindo dogs tied up which were barking their fool heads at me as I passed by them. I usually take the bus to get to the Expo Park neighborhood but today I figured I'd walk since I had no other commitments for the day. Took me about an hour to get there and come back by foot.
When I got to Expo Park I tried to do some things I hadn't done there before like ride the Ferris Wheel, and go into the local library. I watched the kids going on the rides and was reminded of when my brother and I did that as teenagers. I almost cried standing there and hurridly went into the Expo store. I saw the bookmarks and got a couple. Then I walked over to the science part of the park and played with the finger biting fishes. It seems those little fish that I saw last time there got mighty big. One of the big ones tried to swallow my finger so I hastily withdrew my finger to safety. Then I walked back down by the river and saw that a lot of the river was still iced over from the colder days we had the beginning of last week. Discovered a baseball field with some nice park area to sit. I got close to my house and realized I hadn't had Galbi Tong in awhile but thought I'd save that for another day. Just bought some "need to cook" noodles and meatballs for a cozy dinner at home. After dinner I realized that the local coffee shop probably had wireless and raced down to get some free surfing in on the computer I borrowed from my fiancee. It was a good day. |

| FIVE MONTHS!! |
Well, I'm appreciating South Korea more and more. And Daejeon twice as much!;-) Daejeon has the best parks, best coke, and best fiancee in the world!:-) What with the economic dry tumble going on financially, I feel positively rich now when I get my paycheck. And South Korea has GREAT American TV...got CSI galore and Korean exorcism!:-)
Now I just gotta make it through winter and I'll be on top of the food chain!!;-p
As far as my teaching experience goes...
I'm beginning to get food offerings from students and they are starting to say things like:
"You are my favorite teacher because you don't give out homework."
You are a great teacher because you give us candy"
and
"You look pretty teacher " even though they just drew wrinkles on my face with a picture they drew of me on the board...that is forgivable I suppose...
I'm a little behind with schedule on getting a camera but I SWEAR I'm getting one this upcoming month!! |
