I have never had so many phone number mix ups and wrong number incidents in my life until this summer. I can't even count how many people called me looking for someone other than a small korean girl on vacation in asia. Nor can I remember how many times I had to awkwardly apologize in korean for calling the wrong number. I also lost track of the number of times I had to edit numbers in my phone book because I put them in wrong. I don't know if it's the language barrier and I copy down phone numbers incorrectly, or if it's just bad luck, or if it's just completely random for the phone number phiascos, but I would not like any more of them. Although there probably are many more in the future.
PAZ.

I guess this is long over due.
But I may retire this thing anyway.
I am in Korea. In a room. With only a very very dim light illuminating the space. And the fan is going, as usual, its spins a familiar sound. I can see my suitcase out of the corner of my eye. It really does feel like I'm in Korea.
I was ready to go home the night before I left. And ready in the airport. And ready when I landed. And ready now. Korea is the same, and it's nice to visit, but I am done.
Maybe it is because after I went to college I began to love where I was and who I was with and now I cannot stand being so far away from all that. Atleast if I was home, I'd be in the same country as everything I love&miss so much. Well... in the same country as mostly everything.
This is my 4th? trip to Korea. I think I have finally started to sink into the Korean way of life. I use to hate getting pushed and rushed by everyone in the malls, and on the streets, and in the subways, but now I just don't care like everyone else here. I use to feel really bothered and uncomfortable when sales people would be up my ass if I merely just looked in the way of their items. I even got body slammed by this old man in the subway the other day and I didn't really care. I was just kind of like, oh hey okay. I don't know if it's that I've started to become used to Korea as the Korean person that I actually am, or I don't know if it's just because I just don't care.
I could never live here. Be away from the people and places I love so much for so long? No way. Get me on a red eye right away.
I miss you. I miss driving. I miss the familiar.
I'll see you soon.

Hi friends.
So just a friendly reminder to the neighborhood: Don't ever decide to paint your room by yourself unless you are willing to give up 48 hours of your life ..and strength, and freedom. And then get ready to be in pain for the next 48+ hours. Otherwise... the end result is rewarding and you can be pleased with yourself ..after you get over the serious back pains.
I leave for that place Korea in six days. I don't think I'm ready. Especially because my room is such a mess and I don't have sufficient time to make it what I want it to be and the whole time I'm in Korea I'll just be thinking about my freaking room. Also, I don't think I'm ready yet because I'm just getting used to home, and then now I'll have to start getting used to somewhere else. So much freaking packing and unpacking.
I can't wait to listen to wilco for 14 hours straight. :D
I also can't wait to go back to school. Why is september SO far away.

I just watched Amelie and it was so cute. Audrey is adorable, I would like her face. What a cute plot. Except the only thing is, you're so busy reading the captions you almost miss out on the visual part of the movie. French is a crazy language.
On sat I have to go back up to prov for my sister's graduation. Boooo. That's basically... around 8 hours in a car during one day. Gross! I hope I don't get more sun poisoning, sitting outside during the graduation. That. Would. Suck.
I love my bed. How do I live without this during the year? But I think I'd rather give up this bed at home in exchange for starting school two months early.
Is it thunderstorming outside? When was the last good thrilling thunderstorm?

So, this is summer'06 huh?
I like it.
SO FAR...
It's pretty chill. And I have zero set plans. And I kind of like it. Originally I thought I would feel like a bum which of course I do, but, not all the time because I am always doing something. It just might not be making money or learning. I mean, who needs money & education anyway.
I went to the beach today and got tan. Yaay, summer is coming back.
Except, my tan is pretty much gone by the time school rolls around in September so, eh, what evs.
