South Korean Morning
I wanted to take a quick stroll this morning as the sun was rising to take pictures. Unfortunately, I forgot to charge my camera and missed the early dawn. So, instead of the post “South Korean Sunrise,” which is kind of catchy, you only get “South Korean Morning.”
Wedding War Cry
This past weekend, I experienced my first Korean wedding. I didn’t want to go because I was extremely sore from the “mandatory fun” called Avalon Sports Day (all the teachers had to participate in the oddest sporting event ever at my school). However, I’m glad I got the chance to see this.

The Milk Challenge
Lately, I’ve been blogging a little too much about WordPress and all kinds of mumbo-jumbo for the Internet junkies. Today, however, I’m going to share with you a little movie. Yes, a movie! Last Monday, I was put to the “Milk Challenge.” Little did I know, when I decided to take [...]
Fukuoka, Japan
I’m a few days late on blogging about my trip to Fukuoka, Japan, I know. But, I have a good excuse. When I got back from my trip, the backlight to my computer screen was dead. Therefore, I was without Internet access for a few days, at least until I bought a [...]
One Summer, New Places
If you would’ve told me back in May, when I graduated college, that I’d be where I’m at right now or doing what I’m doing right now, I probably would’ve asked you what medication you were on.
In just a few short hours, I’ll be boarding a plane, taking off for Fukuoka, Japan. This is [...]
You Can Never Go Home Again
“They say you can never go home again.”
I was thinking about that quote a couple of weekends ago (I know, I should’ve been blogging since then). I was homesick. It took a couple of weeks, but I felt it. Really, I just didn’t have anything to do. I was sitting around [...]
My First Week In South Korea
It’s been a few days since I last blogged, I know. I’m finally settled into my apartment in Sunae. That’s after spending a week in what my coworkers call the “love motel.” I think that has something to do with the motel-provided condoms and the pay-by-the-hour rates.
I’ve enjoyed the school so far, [...]
Hours Away
This will be my last post while living in America—at least this year. In just a few short hours, I’ll board a plane in Birmingham, Ala., land in Dallas, then fly 14 hours straight to South Korea.
I haven’t had any anxiety attacks or anything of the sort yet, although I did feel a bit [...]
Seoul-Bound
So, I’m a little behind on blogging. Almost three months behind to be a bit more exact.
I’m not exactly sure where to start, but I’ll come out with the big news first. I’m going to Seoul, South Korea to teach English for a year. Yes, pretty big news.
I had somewhat of an [...]
