dear mom and dad,

hello again from korea! as i type this, im eating one roll of tuna kimbap and one roll of kimchee kimbap. i want to ask the woman at the restaurant to mix them both into one roll, but i dont know how, so instead i buy one of each and eat them both at the same time. i need to learn to ask her soon, tho, b/c she makes the rolls fatter and fatter every time i see her, and the food is getting to be too much. ya know, breaking all those old habits slowly but surely.

hey we're so close to the end of the term here at work! one term is around 13 weeks and we're at week 8. Leah, the sister who helped me with the phone, is leaving the school i work at and going to another branch. im sad to see my sister leave, but it's a change she seems excited for, so im excited for her. i think she will stay in the same apt, so perhaps i can still see her here and there.

ah, i wrote an article for the school e-newsletter and got a gift certificate to outback steakhouse for compensation! well actually, we were told we'd get 50,000 won, and instead were given 50,000 won gift certificates. >:( ah well, it's free food. i asked leah and Maima (the sister from new zealand) to join me. uh, i hope 50,000 is enough? it just occurred to me that outback is probably on the pricey side. meh, it'll work out. i hope outback has coke zero.

how is brother dave doing? tell him hi for me. or dont, b/c he wont acknowledge or write back anyway. :) has teddy been by with recycling? i hope so. we only have one planet. the other day i bought cookies at the supermarket, and when i got home, it disturbed me to discover that the cookies were individually wrapped in little foil like wrapping. but then i remembered that they recycle that stuff in my apartment complex! knowing that made the cookies tasted even better! go korea!
