I LOVE Half Days

This week has been pretty awesome as far as work is concerned. I haven't had to teach at all and Wednesday through Friday are designated half days. Well, half days at school. The second half of the day is 'work from home' time.

I don't know if I'd call it all work, but I've definitely been productive with those half days so far.

First stop: Isaac Toast.
I was walking home and I always see this little food place and I decided it would be the day to taste it. It's a kind of french toast sandwich dealio type place and while there were no pictures displayed to point to, I was able to order a ham, cheese, and egg sandwich.

(Insert: Today I was marveling at how I am able to survive in this country. I mean, I don't speak the language, but I get by just fine. It's seriously amazing).

The verdict? Hands down the best sandwich I've had in Korea. Maybe even in my life. It was soooo good. Like heaven. They put this kind of sauce on the bread and it was a little sweet and the moment I left I wanted to go back. Oh, and only 1600 W. About a $1.50. Its my new spot.

Next up: a nap. Definitely necessary and definitely took up most of the afternoon/early evening. I do what I want. And yes that is a Powerpuff Girls pillowcase. And yes I always look this good when I sleep. And I can take pictures of myself in my sleep.


Next, and maybe the most exciting! I put up my Christmas tree!! Well, as much as possible. But I'm rather fond of it. I downloaded some Christmas tunes, pulled out the tape and recently purchased garland, and inspiration hit. I love it. It makes my little apartment seem livelier.

I also tasted that treat handed to me on the street last night. Here is video documentation, because I know you all want to watch me try weird food.

That was awesome. I'm so glad you documented that for me :) I'm glad you're at least finding delicious sandwiches to eat...

And P.S. I'm so sad we didn't get to see your webcam face at our party :( Next time though, right?

HAHAHHAHAHA~!!! love your facial expression. The funny thing is, the red bean paste cake stuff was one of my fav things to eat when i was a kit. It's not super sweet, only a hint of it. It's good for your blood, and woman stuff. (that's what my mom told me) Anyway, love your face. I don't expect many people to love it, it's an acquiring taste.

Another confession

(this isn't about the same subject matter as before) A lot of the time when I meet people I feel like I know them from somewhere. A good percentage of the time I realize the only way I know them is that they resemble one of the characters on the classic board game Guess Who? Does this happen to anyone else?!?!

Recent Obsession Flair-ups

You know how there are some things that you love so much and you experience these things a ton but then after awhile they just seem to fade out? But then some time passes and you almost rediscover these things with new eyes and obsess over them again almost worse than the first time? This has recently happened to me with a few things. They include: Elton John Tater Tots Seinfeld Showering Grape Juice Thats it. PS: (Did you know?!) Thanks to Dare-bear-stare for helping me learn that my own Denver International Airport is the largest airport in the U.S. at 53 square miles! Props to Denver yet again!

Take Home Chef Wannabe

So once upon a time my friend Jeff and I made up our own little tradition. We called it "Friday Picture" and each Friday we would walk around campus and take a picture with the most awkward/awesome/unique looking individual we could find. It was something I looked forward to every week, and we would constantly surprise ourselves with the kind of people we'd see walking around BYU. A lot of weridos there. One day we decided to meander through the library to see if there was anyone extra special for our Friday Picture. Boyyy, did we find that special person! World, meet Take Home Chef Lookalike. I saw him and I couldn't believe the similarities. The striking features. The blond, pointy hair. We even found some silverware to make the photo more true to life. ( The real Curtis Stone ) Try to tell me they don't look alike. Just try. I think the best part of the story is that Jeff's girlfriend at the time (now wife) had dated Take Home Chef-a-like. And we di...
