It's only Thursday.....

Another day at the office... Totally bored... It's super cold again today! Yahoo says it's 41 but I don't believe it... I forgot my gloves again and I used my desk drawer pair last week and I forgot to replace them... I went to homeplus on my lunch break to do a little retail therapy but that didn't really work... I bought a new teapot(light blue sparkle!!!) and some hook and loop for my alam clock... I paid my utility bill... And ya... That was the excitment of my day... Now I'm going to start grading the massive amount of essays that I collected from my middle schoolers yesterday... I hope everyone is having a great week... I sure with I was in California enjoying the sun.... O M G I forgot to tell ya'll that Alex finally got all of her paperwork done!!! So... She should be here next week! Another great reason for a party!

Obama's inauguration

I didn't really think that I would be watching but at about 11pm NBC news started the live feed from Washington DC.. I stayed up till 2am watching... It was very weird watching the inaguration from another country.. I actually had never watched an inaguration before... Everyone has been talking about Obama for months but I really didn't hear anything yesterday.. I'm looking forward to hearing what people have to say about Obama today..

another day.... another dollar.... spent...

Well... It's another Tuesday here... Today is my easy day but I also have alot of work todo... So much grading... I now know how my teachers felt everyday... I kind of let the middle school graing get out of hand but now I think i have control again... I'm really looking forward to this weekend... We are celebrating Lunar New Year so we have Friday-Tuesday off... Amazing! I am going to catch up on some much needed sleep and movie watching... I think i'm going to try to go shopping with Jenn one day and Friday I think i'm going to go to the blue house (The Korean White House..)... I hope I will have some amazing pictures to share after the break...

Fishing Pics...


The Adventure Korea group... While we were setting this picture up we could hear the ice cracking... After the 5th huge crack we all decided to stop waiting for people to show up for the pic.. Everyone was pretty wasted so I was one of the few who was thinking... BTW I'm on the right in a black jacket...


Dinner... I'm still not very sure if it was pork or turkey... lol.. I never got a straight answer... I'd rather not think about it...

They call this ice soccer... Not the best idea... Everyone ended up on their butts...

Hey... I'm holding the wrong fish... The Korean press set up this pic... lol... They took like 100 different pics of us and our fish...


A bunch of crazy westerners bare-hands fishing... BTW I chickened out...
