My Dog and I

You know, I never realized how much I missed wireless until today. I woke up and used my laptop in bed and now, I'm using my laptop while watching Starcraft and Korean dramas on the coach with my dog, Bori.

Bori (보리) is Korean for 麦(Barley). When my family and I were discussing names, I felt like drinking some barley tea, then I was like, you know, I love bori-cha (麦茶), why not just name him Bori. The fact that the dog smells just like barley helped cement the name. So now the dog's name is Bori, but I call him Bori-cha. I suppose that means his Japanese name is むぎ or 麦茶 haha.

Bori's teeth are just coming in, so he just keeps biting everything. Pillows, curtains, dolls, my hand, they're all targets. But it's just too cute so no one complains.

The puppy is just adorable. He's very smart, is just about house-trained, and very rambunctious.
And as sad as I am to say this, right now, I don't miss Japan at all right now. All I've been doing since I've got back is just taking it easy and it feels great. I already know in about a month I'll be melancholic, especially since I'll be in the States, but right now, my comfort level is too high. I suppose the dog really helps in that aspect.
