good god
Oh man, I always loved this one.
AND IT DOUBLES AS A TRIBUTE TO WHITNEY!
I’ve never even watched this show but damn that had me cracking up.
Judy!
This is my FAVORITE patriotic song, sung by one of the best entertainers of all time. I cry every time I watch it. I love the line, “As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free.”
And a somewhat related song, my favorite Judy Garland performance:
PS, I love that there’s an entire Wikipedia page about Judy Garland as a gay icon.

Seoul Searching: Currently: Unimpressed with you... →

seoul-searching:
Last night was the first time in a long time I have felt completely shocked and somewhat disgusted with Korea by Korea. It hit me right across the face that Korea is a LONG way away from making me feel like I can stay here long term and call this place home, without occasionally being reminded…
First, let me thank you for giving me another opportunity...

Seoul~
So I went up to Seoul to meet with everyone at KUMFA. We went to this kind of retreat center and watched the kids while the moms had class. It was really fun - all of the volunteers and moms were SO nice and I felt really comfortable with everyone the whole time. :) The only thing is…I need practice watching little little kids! O_O They like to run away from you a lot…and not...
Ohh Wizard is charming

Love Coffee Prince. My first ever K-drama was “Goong” which led me to watch the lovely gem of Coffee Prince because I loved Yoon Eun-hye (who seems shorter in person, and still pretty without make-up) and then I fell in love with Gong Yoo. My favorite pairing ever… Except for maybe Suzy and Song Sam-dong from Dream High…
Anywho, now I want to go...
I’m 26 minutes into Coffee Prince
헐~~~ why does it take so long? Part of the problem is that there’s so much ad-libbed stuff that’s not in the script and I have to click replay 30 times before I either 1) understand it or 2) fudge it based on context and move on
~*~*~*shame*~*~*~
You guys…you have to PROMISE to watch this when I finish because it’s hard work but...
“Regular vaginal bleeding vagina is a sign of healthy menstruation.”
– …Thanks, eHealth, I wasn’t sure.
I feel like anyone who knew enough to Google ‘vaginal bleeding’ would probably be able to figure that out.
I was on there for something unrelated, btw. :P

…never enjoyed food so much. Every bite is unbelievable. And my stomach shrank I guess so I got full pretty fast, so now I’m just nibbling little pieces at a time, and everything tastes fantastic and I just feel like almost euphoric.

Chris Brown and Miranda Lambert Twitter Feud... →
mykoreanadopteestory:
In a concert Thursday night at the Amherst, Mass., Mullins Center, Lambert held up a handwritten poster that read, “Take notes Chris Brown” and said, “Listen, I just need to speak my mind. Where I come from, beating up on a women is never OK.”
After the crowd applauded, she added, “So that’s why my daddy taught me early on in life how to use a shotgun.”

“Small people makes big world.
Dark people makes bright world.”
– This is what my friend, who is a Korean but shorter and tan enough to earn the nickname “Filipino” wrote on his message board. He asked me if what he wrote made sense. Sure, there are a few small grammatical errors but that doesn’t matter. I just wanted to shout, you came up with this yourself??? I...
FOOD
It is now 11am and I officially haven’t eaten for…32 hours??? O_O And if you don’t count that one Peeps heart, then it’s been more like 40 hours. Holy fuck. I swear I didn’t do it on purpose, I just have no food and no money and no motivation to leave the house.
Anyway, I finally ordered food yaayayyyy!! :D I got:
치즈돈까스 (cheese pork cutlet)
and 군만두 (fried...

It’s a fricking Disney movie. It’s basically a fairytale. Do you think Cinderella is an accurate/fair portrayal of say 18th century europe? Snow White? Sleeping Beauty? It’s not supposed to be historically accurate. That would scare the living fuck out of little kids. If this was a movie made...

My God, you put that so perfectly. It’s everything I’ve been feeling put into words! And it’s so good to know I’m not the only one feeling that way. I seriously have to thank you for this! <3

:(
I’ve been translating & subbing Coffee Prince for almost eight hours now and I’m only 11 minutes in, wtffff.
And I still haven’t eaten today except for the Peeps raspberry heart I ate at 3 am. 헐ㄹㄹㄹㄹ I guess I should take a break.
돈까스? McDonald’s? Pizza? Get ready and go to the store and buy some real food?
That last one was a joke. Maybe I’ll just starve...

don’t worry, i totally understand your frustration. and in my opinion, anyone who works with you, regardless of age, should be using 존댓말 with you, unless you are actually very close. even then, in front of others (in a work setting), you would most likely be using 존댓말 with each other.
as for your students, hmmmm they...

Yeah, my Korean teacher talked about this just a few days ago. She used the example that if you’re having dinner with someone, even if it’s your boss or whoever, using this form to comment on for example how spicy the kimchi is is fine, because it is seen as sort of “talking to yourself”. But in this case the actual comment, wow… I don’t know how you kept your...

I wrote a REALLY, REALLY super-duper long post about Wizard, and Tumblr fucking ate it! I’m so upset.
Anyway, I’ll just recap briefly after the cut. If you’re not interested in my boy stories (Dad!!) don’t read. Kay? Kay. :)
So I’m really disappointed Tumblr ate it and I’m not going to type the whole thing, but to summarize: I met up with Wizard, we...

I can sympathize with how frustrated you feel. Dating is so hard anyway, and it’s twice as hard in a foreign country where men sometimes feel (IMO) compelled to act interested even when they aren’t in order to be polite. I think once you stop looking for him, a guy will appear and sweep you off your feet. Why does it work this...

I forgot what it felt like to be poor~~!!
I have 16,000 won cash. And not very much more than that in my primary bank account.
I have a couple hundred in my secondary and tertiary accounts…but I don’t want to dip into them!! I’ve only ever had to do that once. :(
