Don't laugh ...

Confession::: I may or may not be watching "Eclipse" (the 3rd Twilight movie) again.

Now, before you start making fun of me ... Well, okay, you can make fun of me. I'm making fun of myself. But, c'mon ... I can overlook the cheese-factor and the ridiculousness of it because ... there's shirtless "werewolves". And that makes it ALL worth it.

It's Saturday night. I just spent three hours killing countless numbers of trees (sorry, Mother Nature) in order to copy materials for my students to plan their arguments for their final test. I have eight different topics ... unfortunately, I can't remember all of them right now. I'm sure you're SUPER interested (psssht, haha) ... but you'll just have to deal with it.

Last week was a short week - all of the third year students in Korea took their college entrance exams on Thursday. It's a crazy, crazy day in Korea - it only happens once a year, though. And now that that's over with, all of the third year students in my school are gone. It's SO quiet in my building ... I can't believe it. On Friday, some of my students came to talk to me and were just in awe - "Teacher, we're almost third year students now."

Yesterday, I went to Seoul with Daphne to Apgujeong. We grabbed lunch at a restaurant called "Everest" in Dongdaemun - and it was pretty stinkin' fantastic. Mmmmm, Indian food. :) Then we went to a cafe (in Apgujeong) to have a short lesson on how to make the perfect cup of hand-drip coffee. That was pretty cool. I learned alot about coffee during that short 30 minute lesson.

After that, I met up with Kyu (my old roommate) at the Kyobo Bookstore in Gwanghwamun - REALLY freakin' awesome! I haven't seen her in FOREVER, so it was a lot of fun! She's so funny. I was also able to get hold of In-Chae, and I met him at his university (Dongguk University) near Namsan Tower. His university was pretty cool! Really pretty, and fun to see. He showed me around the campus (including the little manicured park areas on top of the buildings), and then we had dinner. Yay for yummy Italian food. :) :) :) Oh, and great company, of course. (^_^)

Ended up heading down to Beomgye for even MORE good food. Weekends = fat. Oh, and fun times at Trevor and Seul-ki's. :) Woke up this morning, and met Mindy in Gangnam for ... drum roll please ... BUTTERFINGERS PANCAKES! HECK YESSS ... french toast ... bacon ... eggs ... mmmmmmm.

And that was my weekend. Tomorrow? Church. :) For now? More cheesy movies. :)
