downtown uijeongbu




















This big shop center of Uijeongbu. Many shoppings in Uijeongbu. We take cab vere cheap for two person, just 4000 KRW , go many kilometers. Lewis buy french press at Home Plus for his Happy Moshu Palace.

Home Plus like five-story tall Wal-Mart with more things. We dream more better.

education2



Twice a week the kids get to watch Mr. Rose forget song motions on the school's CC TV. Is this appropriate for children? We report, you decide.

Notably neglected was a proper address of the racial inappropriateness of this particular song.

I edited this way down because the whole thing is really long and horribly boring (ten minutes). That's my trusty and adorable co-teacher Ji-Hyun speaking Korean. Note her growing but tempered annoyance at my bungling. I've made her life exactly fourteen times more difficult.

coffee

This is a bit old, but why not post it? (not much happens here)

...the inaugural voyage of our dear Duplex coffee maker. This is before we got the adaptor to use the grinder, so we had to choke down some narsty SBC French roast. We have since obtained an adaptor, and are being spoiled silly by some of Chicago's finest. Thanks Kristin.

This is my podium of wisdom, from which I shape the pliable young minds.
