Let's set it straight - Is the country Laos or Lao?Here's the answer This week... Things that make me happy
Movies I've seen this month
What they're saying about me
"She's a nut! Not too sure how else to describe an "at-first-glance" seemingly quiet girl who dances like a chicken when she thinks no one else is looking, who likes to pass off her "made up" answer for fact, until you look at her and see her hopelessly trying not to crack a smile, who WITHOUT FAIL remembers to put a line of dental floss in her purse before she goes out (and isn't afraid to use it after dinner, thankfully NOT at the table!!). I can always count on her to know the hottest hollywood gossip, and to dance till all hours of the morning with me." "My co-worker just told me that there was a premiere for Bridget Jones 2 last night, just blocks from my work, and we missed it! Hugh Grant, my beloved and the framework upon which my future husband is based, was just blocks away, breathing the same oxygen, and I missed it! If I had a friend here who was as savvy with E-news as you are, this catastrophe would never have occurred!" Guess what I heard... Oh my god!! This donut is so good! - Ras about a Krispy Kreme donut "I want to do! But what is paintball? There is no such word in dictionary." - Suwa, Japanese teacher "I am now skipping church to see if I am going to win my bids!!!" "YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA.....I won the felt tip pens!!!!!!!! Yippeee...."who let the dogs out...arf, arf, arf, arf"...."let me hear you say Y..M..C..A"....oh yah, who's your daddy!!!" - Renee Other favorite quotes:
A gift is an offering. A selfless act that adds something to someone's life. Something that they need. Have you ever walked by something and you just had this feeling that someone you knew would absolutely love it? Faith is believing when there is no rational reason to believe. Homer: "We Americans are England's children... I know we don't call as much as we should, or aren't as well behaved as our goody two shoes brother, Canada... who I should mention has never had a girlfriend... I'm just sayin'..." Anything less than mad, passionate, extraordinary love is a waste of time. There are too many mediocre things in life, and love should not be one of them. The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it. When your heart speaks, take good notes. Travel has a way of stretching the mind. The stretch comes not from travel's immediate rewards, the inevitable myriad new sights, smells and sounds, but with experiencing firsthand how others do differently what we believed to be the right and only way. It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting. Sometimes to see the light, you have to risk the dark. |
I will let you down... I will make you hurt
2/5/2004
Would you marry someone who has never said "I love you", during your 4 year relationship? I was at Ras' school and his class was discussing this. There was a woman in his class that has only said those three magic words to her boyfriend once. She only plans on saying it again on their wedding day. This has to be an extreme of Korean culture. I know they're conservative, but how could you be with someone for so long and not verbalize how you feel? While at his school, I also ended up watching the Super Bowl ads online. I have a warm spot in my heart for animals and old people, and found those commercials to be the most amusing. I find kids and old people funny (looking and acting), except for the cranky ones. I skipped the H&R block ad - come on... the name alone sounds boring. I particulary liked Budweiser's "Clydesdale Donkey" & "Horny Talking Monkey", and Frito Lay's "Fight to the Death". Back home, you don't download commercials, but I hardly ever watch English commercials here. One of the best things about being in Korea, is that I don't watch much tv anymore. I'm not constantly bombarded by commercials for new "must see" shows, so I don't know what I'm missing. Sure, I hear about the O.C., but is that show really good? It's all for the better, because tv takes up so much of my time. I usually only turn on the tv at night to watch English music videos at 9:00 pm on MTV, and then just have it on as background noise as I surf the internet. I always watch Friends and Will and Grace from 11:00-midnight. Of course, I'll read about shows online. If there are good things said about a particular show, I'll download it to watch. Actually, Ras will download it for me to watch. That's how I found out about "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy". On the other hand, I don't think I'm missing much by not watching Jessica Simpson and her reality tv show, The Newlyweds. How long is it before you're not newleyweds anymore? Didn't they marry lat year??? I saw Johnny Cash's video "Hurt" online a couple months back. This time it was on tv, and it made me a little sad while watching it. In the video, you see Johnny Cash old and tired, but there are clips of him when he was young, smiling, and and just getting started in life. The lyrics were a little haunting... What have I become
