coming to you live from korea....

I'm well. The food is spicy. I can't read anything. Grocery stores are odd. No internet in my house yet, but I have hope.

Hope you're all well!!

*Hugs* Glad you're safe and sound.

BSG was batshit. Watched at a friend's house and thought of you.

It was crazy good batshit. Starbuck and Apollo for the win. (Apollo in a suit with a gun makes him look all James Bond-y)

You know, you've kind of got a point there ^_^

Glad to here that you're doing okay :) Enjoy the experience.

thanks hon!

Wait. You are in KOREA? How did i miss that? How come? How long? How cool!

[identity profile] oparu.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
teaching english. 6 months, and because I'm crazy...but hey, it's a good experience, eh?

[identity profile] claraon.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. Amazing experience! I hope everything goes alright! And whatever happened to going to Africa?

And here I thought my going to Canada was a challenge.

[identity profile] oparu.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
for some reason Africa is one of the hardest places to get to. I think when I'm done in England and I have my PhD (ZOMG) I can work there.

*ponders*

Happy to hear you arrived safe!!

[identity profile] oparu.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
safe and sound and only slightly confused... ;)

[identity profile] anuna-81.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 02:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't read anything.

Ha! I almost know how you feel, thanx to the sheer frustration of my significant other, every time we have to drive through serbian part of Bosnia.

Take care of yourself!

[identity profile] oparu.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
that would be weird...so close and a totally different language. I've just learned yesterday how they put symbols together. It's really fairly fascinating.

[identity profile] anuna-81.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well, there are words which are different, but it's mostly about different letters/symbols - like in Russia. I can read them, thus we don't get lost. :)

I bet another culture is fascinating in many ways. Just be careful about what you eat.

AHH! Keep us updated! So glad you're safe. *squishes*

big hugs! at least it's sunny here...that should keep me from missing LA too much. ;)

[identity profile] isaysquee.livejournal.com 2009-02-01 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds fun and exciting!! :D Keep us posted!

[identity profile] oparu.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
it's definitely different. I think I'm pmsing today...people keep annoying me. ;) but I'll buck up.

Different cultures may be different, but inconsiderate is universal, unfortunately. *squish*

happy to hear you got there safely!

[identity profile] oparu.livejournal.com 2009-02-02 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
...ponders...

more on that later. Issac is fantastic. The grocery store is fun. My job might reach the same level of love/hate as canada on a bad day...
