Some people get all the luck ...

In one week, I spend at least 3 hours on a bus of some kind.

See, it takes almost exactly one hour to get from Gimpo Foreign Language High School to Hapjeong subway station on the 3000 bus (which makes limited stops). Since I absolutely hate riding buses, that's the best option for me. Then, I can hop on the subway (Hapjeong Station is where Line 2 [the green line] and Line 6 [the brown line] meet) and be in Beomgye or Suwon within an hour (strange how it takes about the same amount of time to get to both places, huh?)

Why am I telling you this? To complain. What am I complaining about? EVERY TIME I GET ON THAT FREAKING 3000 BUS, I ALWAYS END UP SITTING NEXT TO OLD MEN AND WOMEN. Once ... JUST ONCE ... I want to get to sit next to a cute soldier.

Yes, I know that's petty. But c'mon! On Thursday when I rode the bus, I ended up sitting next to a space-hogging ahjeossi (albeit, he had a kind smile) while Daphne (my coworker) got to sit next to a cute soldier. NOT FAIR! :P

Some people get all the luck.

Oh, and BTW ... if anyone has a recipe for pie crust, please let me know. Any and all advice would be welcome, too, as I attempt to make a pumpkin pie. I don't even like pumpkin pie, haha.

Happy (almost) Thanksgiving!!!

The recipe my Aunt Joyce taught me is super simple. Basically - take 1/3 a cup of shortening (or margarine or BUTTER) and 1 cup of flour, mix them together lightly so the butter is still kind of clumped in the flour, add some cold water (just enough to make it all stick together) and then roll it out and put it in your pan! It's SUPER tasty too :) So I usually just do that or variations on it. The trick is to keep everything pretty cold and don't touch it too much.
