I got a bitchin new laptop yesterday and spent most of the day after school deleting bloatware and setting up the computer with all the freeware I am used to having around. Unfortunately, I spent all day doing nothing but that so today I have to make up for lost time in terms of schoolwork and exercise. The day has just begun

I'm afraid I have a dirty little secret: I have issues sleeping. All the time. When I have issues sleeping, my behavior changes drastically and I can't think straight. This often means I become incredibly irregular in my attitude, sociability, and actions. I would imagine this would be hilarious, if it was I looking at myself from afar.I write this all, actually, to tell people that I just poured

So I finished my first day at school and I'm tired as shit. I was up since four am in the morning and school was from nine am until four pm. The classes themselves are not too bad, just the length is killing me. I completely slept through my last class. PS 141B has way too many people. Some three hundred people are taking it and the room is very warm. The teacher was very nice and I liked the way

I landed just two days ago and I have so many things to do. Today I went and paid bills and cashed some checks that I got in the mail but I forgot to get my internet set up at my home. I'm currently stealing internet from somebody out there to write this. The car needed a wash so I also did that, as well as forgetting to eat.I ran around school trying to complete a lot of my school related issues

今日は戻ったからちょっと違うの日だった。俺日本から韓国に１２月２８日帰りました。その時から帰ったからちょう嬉しかった、なんか楽だから。家にゴロゴロできるし。でも、今日は日本を出たのことをちょっと気づいてしまいました。銭湯に行ってのんびりしている時看板を読みました。その看板には「マサジ無料」と書いてありました。それを読んで笑っちゃった。笑った理由は日本にいる時日本人の生徒たちとどうやって日本語と韓国語がにいてるか話を何回しました。例えば、一つにいてるのは日本語と韓国語にはマサジ三十分無料が同じこと。その看板を読んで何回その話をしたか思い出が出ました。三日日本にいないことをあまり関係なかったけど、日本を出たことを気づきました。なんか懐かしいになって心辛くなりました。日本に戻りたいんです。でも、あまり寒くない季節がいいかな。Today was definitely a change of

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.

So I got back to Seoul at around 8PM yesterday night. I had a checklist already in my mind of things I needed to do:1. Eat something spicy2. Meet my dogI did those two, now I'm at a loss for what to do. I've been spending most of my time just goofing off with the dog and eating food. That's pretty much it. While I miss a lot of people and things in Japan (For instance, じゃがりこ）there are a few

I was like ho hum, I am going to leave Japan. Then I got news from my sister: WE HAVE A NEW PUPPY. All my melancholy dissolved away in an instant. New puppies tend to do that.

I have two weeks left in Japan. I feel pretty melancholic. I finally got around to changing my facebook options, so I won't untag myself I suppose.I found out that I may not have to go to the Korean military ever. Some new legislation passed allowing people who have lived abroad for a long time to forgo having to participate in active duty. This is, of course, great news.I plan to return to Japan

Well, I am here in Japan after arriving here two and a half months ago. Things that has so far happened:Met some Japanese people.Ate some Japanese food.Sang Karaoke.That's about it I guess. More on this later.

I only get internet here for about 30 minutes a day here as Japanese internet is apparently not as good as Korea internet. The Mbps difference is about 1:10 in Korea's favor, and the internet for MISH, the student lodging for EAP students, is split amongst 25 some odd people. So at peak hours, I get enough for a small animated gif maybe, if anything at all. But 9AM is a fine time for internet as

It's 2:50AM here in South Korea, a fine predicament that is the result of a very long nap midafternoon, and a strong cup of tea at 10pm.Interesting story, I had been looking for a particular piece of music for about three years since I had heard it back around 2005. Or maybe it was 2006 I don't remember too clearly. In any case, it was a wonderful orchestral piece that I only heard once and I

ahahaha, olympic judges are so biased for Koreans in Tae Kwon Do. I mean, it is the national sport of Korea, but seriously, those were some bullshit scoring in favor for Korean athletes.Like that women's match between Korea and Turkey? Stingy ass fuckers, for the game to end 1-0. Especially with a single point win at the END. Fucking score only counters assholes lol.Then in the Men's 68kg, Mark

So apparently summer is slowly dying, as the heat is toning down and the sounds of cicadas are slowly fading away and the crickets take over the night. August is in it's last half and I head for Japan soon.I adopted an abandoned laptop to take to Japan, reformatted it and replaced it's Korean Windows XP OS with an US version with the help of the internet. I don't have any problems with a Korean

So I work[ed] at a tea store called Lupicia. One fact that always stuck with me about the franchise was that they had one store in South Korea. Just one. I just had to see it at least once when I was in Korea. Despite the fact that I hadn't gone to a Lupicia only since early July (when I sort of just stopped going due to lack of hours), I kind of forgot how the Lupicia stores look and feel and I

I can't imagine I'm the only person with this problem, but my spending habit drastically changes when I am somewhere outside of the United States. I am very frugal when it comes to spending on myself when I am in the US, buying very little asides essentials such as food and water. I carefully make decisions on my purchases, weighing the benefit to cost ratio to avoid unwarranted purchases. But

So Bush is apparently in Seoul right now, coming right after I came to Korea like some sick stalker. Protests are prominent and no one except the communists give a flying shit.I'm dying here of dehydration. I am perpetually thirsty in this heat. I suppose it's unavoidable, it is Korea in the summer.

How hot is it? it's so hot, people are eating kimchee to cool down...It's so hot, People are giving their dogs baths outside, and others come by saying they smelled dog soup and wonder if they could have some....It's so hot, people are risking getting killed by turning their fans on at night....If only Korea was a woman, I might actually enjoy how every summer night makes me restless and sticky

After 7 Years, Talks Collapse on World TradeNothing like Classic Prisoner's Dilemma coming alive to beat the shit out of policies that would enable prosperity if everyone would cooperate but are hard to implement since everyone is a greedy douche. Thanks China, India, and Brazil, guess you fuckers forgot how trade helped your poor asses the past thirty some years.
