thanks to statcounter
I know that my blog comes up on the first page of Google if you search for:
- naked gong yoo (I get at least two of these a day. Sorry to disappoint you all.)
- papa gorilla or papa gorilla seoul
- taco bell itaewon
Real nice, eh? Making a name for myself with the help of half-naked Korean guys, bars in Hongdae, and Taco Bell.
ETA: “typical korean dinner” also works. That’s a little better.
trying to sleep in a typhoon
is near impossible! My apartment walls are made up of about 30% windows, which are currently shaking and sound like they are going to break. And it’s not even supposed to hit Seoul until noon, so I can’t even imagine what it’ll be like then. Ahhh!!! D:
a notice from the u.s. embassy
This warden message is being issued to alert U.S. citizens residing or traveling in the Republic of Korea that the Korea Meteorological Administration has issued alerts for a Category 3 storm, Typhoon Kompasu. As of 1230 (local time) on Wednesday, September 1, Typhoon Kompasu was located approximately 263 kilometers or 163 miles southwest of Cheju island and traveling north at 33 km/h (20 mph). It is expected to turn in a northeast direction and pass very near Seoul at approximately 1500 (local time) on Thursday, September 2.
The Korea Meteorological Administration reports that the maximum sustained wind speed in the storm is 157 km/h (98 mph). While Typhoon Kompasus winds are expected to decrease over the next 36 hours, sustained maximum winds when the storm reaches Seoul are still predicted to be as high as 150 Km/h (93 mph).
I feel like I’ve been experiencing a typhoon for the past month now. When will this rain end?!?! Do they have Typhoon Days here? Please no school tomorrow?
Trashy movie + 3D and vibrating seats + soju + an awesome dude I’m not telling you about = quite an entertaining way to spend my Sunday evening.
Start of a new term + having to stay three hours later than I should have for a meeting that got us nowhere + work politics = not a great way to spend my Monday.
At least my new students seem pretty awesome, and I get to spend the rest of my night watching True Blood…
that would be an interesting conversation...
- Textbook: If you could invent anything, what would it be?
- Erin: I would invent a talking poo poo! [Shows the class pictures of poop dancing and eating ice cream.]
- Me: And what would you talk about with this poo poo?
- Erin: EVERYTHING!
