Thanks for the comments. Always nice to know things are getting read by somebody. Chiprj- Thanks for the comments. We're certainly still having fun here and still enjoying the Kimchi. We'll see how we feel about it in a year, but that's another story. Jill- Actually I disagree on the liability thing a bit. After all, they have fondue resturants in the US where you could get a nice burn if you weren't paying atte

Ok. let's break this down a little. Reality shows may reflect a portion of our culture in America but not all of it likely not even half to one quarter. One can not lump reality TV shows all together anyways. From what I have seen and I am not a complete reality show junkie because I personally opt out of watching most of them there are at least four kinds of reality shows. 1.)There are the reality TV shows that everyone involved knows what's
Today I met with a Korean friend and a Japanese friend to be social and practice our language skills. Near the end of our time together the question was brought up by my Korean friend. Are shows like Cheaters and Jerry Springer representative of American Culture? I told her no of course and had to explain the reality of these shows is that they are on the edge shows that show an extreme side of American culture and that most Americans like most Koreans are hard working family oriented peo

Thanks, for the help. I am making new frineds here of which one is a korean women and one is a japanese women who is married to a korean and speaks korean. So I am getting some pointers from them. Any other help is appreciated.
Oh the meats I just point too. Right now and hope for the best. The other day I thought I ordered a pork roast and got shaved pork. Which I ended ended cooking in a stir fry. We do the best we can. The phrase I want ot learn most on how to pronounce is I don't understand and please excuse me.
As many of you know, this year long relocation was done rather on a quick decision and move process so Chris and I did not have time to learn Korean before we came. As a result it poses an interesting problem when it comes to performing the day to day tasks such as grocery shopping. Oh how we take for granted our ability to read packages when we purchase and under a
On our car ride around the country side with our German and Russian friend we were asked to explain a few things American. As Americans we do not realize the amount of slang we use in the US. Our new Russian friend asked us to explain what honey and sweetheart meant when referring to another person. She knew that honey was a sweet substance from bees which is wh
On Sunday of last week, one of the Germans at Kamco, and a Russian friend of his took us to a Buddhist temple that was located in the southwestern portion of the country. Temples in Korea are usually located in the mountains. (The reasoning for this is that at one time Buddhist were persecuted for there religion so they placed their temples high in the mountains so t
Well the flight went well. The World class business pods were pretty cool to travel in with the lumbar messaging seats that fully recline into bed positions and the personal 14" screens that you can watch movies or play video games on. Not to mention the leg room that was pretty awesome. I had brought a water bottle since I thought I would be neglected like most o
Well, tommorrow I go off into the wild blue yonder. The flight leaves in the afternoon. I am all packed and ready to go. Chris will pick me up at the airport on Friday at 9:00 pm their time. Thankfully, we will be staying in a hotel that is located near the airport for the night. I am so looking forward to cuddling up next to my husband after a stressful week apart.
