Dance like no one can see Love like you've never been hurt Live like it's heaven on earth 
 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. |
The Tera Burn (aka Spaceship Cafe)
3/29/2004
Sung to the tune of Gilligan's Island: Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip. That started from this Korean port, aboard this tiny spaceship. (Tera Burn) The mate was a mighty Happy (Valley) woman, the skipper a dancing queen. Five passengers set forth that day, for (at least) a three hour tour, a three hour tour¡¦¡¦¡¦ The drinks started getting rough, the mate's cookies were almost tossed. If not for the courage of the dancin' crew, the T. Burn would be dull; the T. Burn would be dull. The Kangneungers took ground on the shore of this uncharted little spot, with Catherine, the lao-ocean too, the gay guy, and his biatch, the British bird, the snowboarder and Rachael, here at the Tera Burn! The seven of us (Me, Kate, Rachael, Misty, Giselle, Kiran, & Paul) spent Saturday night in Sockcho, livin' it up at the Tera Burn. I've heard of this bar before from others who have been there, but this was the first I went myself. It's a metallic mass of wonder, that is known as the "spaceship cafe" by Korean. We arrived at the cafe and it DID look like some sort of spaceship. I almost felt like I was entering Heaven's Gate's headquarters, and should be wearing my Nikes. The place was really cool inside - a nice atmosphere. Our Kangneung group started to dwindle as the night wore on, because some people were going to hike Sorak-san the next day. Kate and I ended up being the lone Kangneung survivors as we head to the nori-bang with four other people around 4:40 am. By the time we finished belting classic tunes like Bon Jovi's "Bed of Roses", the sun was rising over the beach. I haven't been up with the sun in a long time, and it was such a beautful, surreal sight. It was one of those moments that really makes you glad you're alive. I'm giving an open invitation for anyone from Sockcho to visit Kangneung. If nothing else, the International Folklore Festival is being held in Kangneung from June 11-27, 2004.
