WOW! Merry Christmas! I hope you had a wonderful few days celebrating. What a great weekend we had! Adam and I are wrapping up our Christmas celebrations, and it has been wonderful. This was our first Christmas away from home, and we missed being with family, but we found some [...]

Happy Birthday to me!

It’s my birthday in Korea! Happy birthday to me! And we’ll get Christmas before most of you, too! Being in Asia, we get every holiday before you Western hemisphere folks.

Somethin to say

21, Dec 2006

Not too much. But, here goes.
First off, I really just wanted to say hello to all of you (all 335 of you beautiful people who have stopped by our humble blog in the last month-wow). I’ve missed you. It’s been too long.
Anyway…I posted some new photos today on our Flickr. Some more photos from the [...]

Linda, a girl in Adam’s art class gave us tickets to a Christmas concert in Paju tonight. We thought it would be a nice way to spend our evening. We dressed up and took a taxi to Paju City Hall. It was a fun time. It was enough familiar Christmas festivity [...]

Seoul Selection, a weekly newsletter for expatriates, published Adam’s photograph “Kimchi” in this week’s edition. Adam took this picture a few weeks ago while walking around Insadong in Seoul. There was an army of Ajumas (old aunties) preparing kimchi for the winter.
Cool, huh? :).

Dune Messiah Quotes

9, Dec 2006

I just finished reading Dune Messiah, the second book in the Dune series written by Frank Herbert. Good read. Here’s some interesting quotes (a little puzzling out of context, sure, but maybe it’ll pique your curiosity to read it yourself):
“The flesh surrenders itself, he thought. Eternity takes back its own. Our bodies stirred these [...]

Cross-training

9, Dec 2006

Adam and I have had the creative bug lately. Adam has picked up his paints and pencils again. He has done a bunch of sketches, and today he did some watercolors. He’s also doing a little acting. It’s fun for him. Adam’s is also continuing to do a lot of [...]
