| What do you do when you have an indescribable amount of anxiety and pent-up frustration? Spend 75 minutes turning chickpeas into hummus using only a fork... How very cathartic. |
Day 278- May 28, 2011
Day 277- May 27, 2011
3/4 of the way through!!! Time will fly now!
 |
| I also want your opinion on this one: middle outfit, man or womans? |
Day 275- May 25, 2011
 |
| In Myongdong [famous shopping area in Seoul], these girls, in crazy outfits, stand outside the (hundreds of) beauty stores with microphones gesturing you in for free products! If you want sensory overload, come here! |
Day 272- May 22, 2011
 |
| Went to Pyeongtaek Girls Middle School to see an open class. These girls work so hard!! It was nice to how my schools counterpart functions (and made me a little jealous). |
Day 271- May 21, 2011
 |
| Is it bad that I walked by these men changing a store sign and thought it was a beer pong table? |
Day 268- May 18, 2011
 |
| Sorry it's blurry. Adorable people pleaser outside the restaurant at dinner. I love korean children! |
Day 267- May 17, 2011
 |
| It's pay day! What does Lauren do with all her money? Get a ridiculous colored manicure. Not quite sure what came over me on this one, but won't be doing it again. |
Day 265- May 15, 2011
 |
| New mexican joint in AK plaza!!!!! I will be eating here frequently. Can't complain about the company either :) |
Day 264- May 14, 2011
 |
| The Korean version of Jins Chicken. Late night hamburgers done marginally well. |
Day 262- May 12, 2011
 |
| I love getting things on my desk in the morning. For teachers day, we all got warm ooey gooey sweet delicious rice cakes an a beautiful flower basket. They treat us well around here! |
Day 263- May 13, 2011
 |
| Sports day at PJH (or PMS depending on what language you want to make an acronym for. I prefer English, because it's kind of ironic). |
Day 260- May 10, 2011
 |
| Today is Buddha's birthday and all the streets in Korea are lined with these lanterns (have been for the past month) marking the celebration. There are all sorts of celebrations going on around the country today :) |
Day 259- May 9, 2011
 |
| Yesterday was parents day (a combination of mothers and father s day) and you could not walk more than 50 yards without seeing stands selling flower baskets! What a nice sentiment. |
Day 258- May 8, 2011
 |
| What I would have taken a picture of if I went to the Lotus Lantern Festival in Seoul. But i'm told there are way too many people, so I stayed around the comforts of home. |
Day 256- May 6, 2011
 |
| What do a bunch of waygook teachers do when they have a day off? We take over the movie theater and watch water for elephants! |
Day 255- May 5, 2011
 |
| Physical Fitness Testing today. Remember in middle school, when you had to run from one side of the gym to the other but only when the prerecorded tape "dinged?" Apparently, this is an international concept...fancy that. |
Day 250- May 3, 2011
 |
| Pretty sunset over Pyeongtaek Lake. I was fortunate to pretend to back in suburbia for a second when our friends Laura and Jordan invited us to dinner! A wonderful night was had by all! |
Day 248- May 1, 2011
 |
| I love my Sundays at Cafe Bene. Two things I noticed in my typical people watching is couples being ridiculously affectionate, and as posted above; girls taking pictures of themselves. |
Day 247- April 30, 2011
 |
| I walk by this poster which happens to be outside a bar. I find it questionable that a man over a toilet is a good advertisement for a bar... the best part is the translation "I'm awkward..." Oh Korea |
