Ya know… these girls aren’t too bad. I’d say an improvement over Wonder Girls, in any case. :-)
I dunno, I think they’re unique by Korean standards. Look at CL’s hair!!

a neat video about the “underground railroad” running from north korea to thailand.Great find. Having a North Korean speaker come to my school today, btw, to talk about reunification. Hmm perhaps I should have brushed up on my Korean the night before??

B-day letter from a student
“Happy birthday, Anna. I’m genius. I lose at the gamble… ohh.. shit! [Referring to a bet we made related to his test score.] But, defeat is the mother of success! And don’t be esteem by yourself! [Dunno what that means.] I will win some when… make sure that I’m a genius. Anyway, I think you are a good person. And you are my favorite person. I love English, I love you, too, and you are so pretty. Be proud of yourself. Anyway, congratultions and let us be more intimate friend. Remember me when you go back to Russia.
P.S. Do not show this letter to others. If you do that, I will punish you.”

Too bad I only had my phone camera, but… This is one of THE most DELICIOUS foods I’ve had in Korea. It’s a thick, potato-pasta-cabbage-ie soup called Dilggaesujebi (ahh my Korean font isn’t working atm).
Korean food isn’t particularly hearty, but this is the closest I’ve come across.
