I do not have the patience this very moment to sit down and write about every adventure I have had since being in Korea, nor do I have the attention-span to delve into my experiences and feelings and reasons why I have pursued life in Korea. So instead, I will make a list of all the things I need to write about over time, a reference point to go by. Slowly but surely (hopefully) I will cover each...thus making a good attempt at understanding everything that I see and having something to look back upon when I decide to rejoin middle-America. Here we go then...
1. Bowling in Korea
2. Cherry Blossom Festival
3. Baseball Games (LG Twins)
4. Ullengdo
5. DMZ Trip 1 vs. DMZ Trip 2 (Cherwon)
6. Lantern Festival, Buddha's Birthday
7. Knowing that you are the only visible white person in a sea of Koreans.
8. Thailand -- Chiang Mai in all of it's greatness
9. Japan - Kanazawa and the party that made my day there.
10. Noraebong
11. Cooking Class with the Seoul Global Center
12. Volunteering at the Low Income Children's Center
13. Tutoring in Korea
14. Shopping in Myeongdong (Remember that day when Mr. Pizza threw free stuff off the rooftops)
15. Barefoot Marathon
16. Birthdays in Korea
17. Baby Shower with Sunny
18. International Women's Day
19. Eating dinners with Habiba
20. Learning Korean (Lynn)
21. Lunches with David

24. Making friends with Koreans : How I became an expert on Asian friendships.
25. The yellow buses of Ola lining up in front of the school.
26. English teachers and the problems of containment.
That's it for now, though I know there's more.
