hidden treasures

i spent my 4th of july in korea, at a japanese restaurant, listening to abba, (who was singing about napoleon), followed by drinking dutch and belgian beers. but at least i was wearing red white and blue (can’t resist a theme outfit).

my one regret was being too tired to go on the virtual roller coaster in sinchon. it’s my new top priority.

hope you all enjoyed your holiday.

the transformation is almost complete

I suppose there are people who wouldn’t like to hear this, but I love it when people tell me I’m becoming Korean. This guy I’ve seen a few times now always gets surprised when I know Korean songs or can understand some things he says. I’ve heard him say this several times: “Wowww.. I think you are almost Korean!” I can only respond with “Reeeeally??!”

Then my Korean friend today saw my toenails (alternating pink and purple), said they were cute, then “Laura, you are really turning Korean.” Yesss.

I also semi-accidentally cut more bangs last night, which I guess only adds to it. This all just means I’m probably going to have a major identity crisis whenever I move back to the States, and will only want to visit U of I in order to see lots of Koreans again. Too bad I hadn’t gotten in on that scene when I lived there.

this also happens to blake and i frequently…we had a little bit of a frightening moment on friday night. so, in korea pretty much everything comes with pickles, even pizza. so we are eating away at our friday night pizza when blake says “is it weird that i want a pickle?” and my reply was, “no. i want one, too.” what has become of us? pickles and pizza?
