sillyits not really rabbit day anymore....but they dont celebrate it here , and it is only a few hours past rabbit day for everyone in the usa anyways. give me a lil credit. ^^
i got a cyworld! its a lil miny hompy everyone in korea, practically everyone, has, its such a good way to learn korean and stay in touch with people
my site name is www.cyworld.com/lori06
a lot of it is korean, but you can get the main idea of it. its fun. i spend most of my computer time on there trying to translate the messeges people post to me on the guest book thing. ji-yoons friend byeong-ju is trying to teach me korean that way, but damn i must be the slowest learner ever! i accidentally called one girl dumb, when i meant to say my korean is bad, it came out saying she is bad =dumb. well damn me. today she came up to me, "why you call me bad?" me? call you bad? i did what? uh...crap. she wasnt angry... luckily, and everyone understands how poor my korean is so she laughed it off. i felt so dumb though.
last night i found the candles in my luggage with the log cabin scene on it that looks like my house. they were for my host family, as xmas presents, and i gave 1 to ji-euns family, but had 2 left...so i gave one to ji-yoon and one to ji-na.
my family has a new set up on our coffee table with the familys pictures. they had everyones there, but no pics of me, since you know...im not relaly family.i pointed this out to my mom..."oma.... jiyoon issoyo, jina issoyo, jieon issoyo.....ji-u (thats me ^^) obsoyo...." so we found a good pic and she put it with the rest of the family. i feel so accepted. :)when we have guests she shows them the family pictures collection :) oh yah! that includes me. woot!
today in korean class they were reading from their text book, and im not paying any attention because i rarely ever do...i was studying my korean books that are much more down at my level.i hear "sup?"... "what's up" haha.. what? ok, im back, what did i miss? that was in their text book i guess, as an example. so jina was asking me about it so i explained 'sup was much more of a ghetto term, and what's up, was more common and preferable over "how are you? what are you doing?" so everyone, practicing "suuuuup??" and "whats up??" all together. it was great:)
sunday i got a call from rose!! it was the best. the phone reception was not great, but still. we use to talk almost every day a month ago....then i havent heard from her for a few weeks....so yah that was really awesome. when i get back to the us it'll definitely be back to calling that girl every day. i miss her so much!!!!!!
i sent the 2 big boxes home i've been meaning to send out for a couple...months...now. hah o well. i sent them both by ship which cost me only 25,000won and i have another package all ready with my hanbok in it...but im owrried about it. if that gets lost i'll be beyond upset. well.. hopefully it will make it home in one piece. it should be there about the same time i get there, since it takes a good 2 months for anything by ship.
