Good Week for Home

I had to go into Seoul this morning to pick up the results of a TB scan that I had to complete before getting a New Zealand visa. Apparently Korea is considered a "non-low risk country" for tuberculosis, so last week I had to go to a Kiwi-approved hospital and get x-rayed, and this week I picked...

ROK, rivers, baseball, GRE, oh my!

Here we are in September, my uncontested favorite time of the year, and Indian Summer is in full swing here. The weather has been nothing short of delightful, so my friends and I have been making the most of it. Here are some September highlights: I started the month out with a trip north to...

Seoul, Korea (April 29 - May 4, 2009)

On April 29 I flew from Qingdao to Seoul, Korea; the flight was only about an hour long. As soon as I arrived at the airport, I could tell that Korea was a completely different world from China. It was as though America had invaded Korea. I miss America sometimes, but one of the things I...

Jeonju International Film Festival

Get this--May 5 is a national holiday in Korea, meaning that there's no school, no work, and only play. The holiday's name? Children's Day. Not to be confused with Parent's Day or Teacher's Day, both which follow a few days behind, but neither warranting a day free from school. But I'm...

International Pick-up Lines

Love is supposed to be the international language, and to some extent I guess that’s true. Kisses are kisses. But still, getting to the point where kissing is not only a likely activity, but an acceptable one, takes some work. What I’m saying is international pick-up lines are...

Chaotic!

Jeesh! Overdue doesn't even come close to describing how tardy this post is in coming! Perhaps I should research Twitter, the new fad I've been reading about. That way, every breath I take and movement I make I can inform others about. Though the way things sometimes happen over here, I'm...
