Long time no Blog

So, its been a little while since I've decided to lay some text down on this site...but a lot has happened.

Lets see, I discovered my parents read this blog so I thought I would post this picture of me, Manson, and Jack Daniels just to spice up their day.

If anyone knows Tupp from Maryland, he's here and apparently is having a good time too. We met up last Saturday and rocked it out at some techno club in the ritzy part of town. Aside from still really hating techno music, we had a great time.

I'm getting a new co-worker from Chicago on Tuesday. This should be interesting. I mean, as interesting as work gossip can get.

The students have the best gossip though. Apparently Grant has this thing for Ally but Ally is totally into Max. Max apparently isn't at the age for girls yet so he just hits Ally. Ahh, to be young again.

At the three month point, its becoming routine and its weird waking up here and realizing that this is home for now. But I do really enjoy it and I'm having a great experience. Hopefully I can start posting some interesting stories after this filler crap piece...

so check out these links that I enjoy:

The Super (Sleepy) Bowl

Its 8:00 am and the sun's barely up but in the first true test of living across the world, I've dedicated myself to having a Superbowl party (well, actually I don't really know anyone in my neighborhood but if I could type flyers in Korean, I would have). So let the solo suare begin.

I suppose beyond friends and fun, the other F pillar of Superbowl Sunday is food. I've decided to venture out at halftime (10:15 am) to my street and compile of collection of street bread, vendor fries (not potato though), and fish cakes. As unappealing as that sounds, it actually wasn't half bad (but I'm not sold on the other half being good yet either).

So the game ended, and I was surprisingly supportive of the Steelers, despite the conference rivalry (go Ravens!). Big Ben shadowing Marino, Jerome bringing one home, and Hines Ward becoming the new unofficial mascot to interracial Korean breeding. His natural combination of athletic prowess, sharp wit, and Korean charm has made him a force to be reckoned with. I hear he'll be here in April, which gives me 2 months to make a Ward Ravens Jersey.

So all's well that ends well...

I'm watching all my sporting events on tape delay from now on though.
