Sarah Sarah Sarah

Kind of like "Toni Tony Toney" eh? Except we all spell our names the same way, the RIGHT way. So about three weeks into my stay in Korea and I already have my first visitors, Sarah W and Sarah L, the best friends from high school. We're totally cramped in my little studio apartment, but its okay, its still liveable. I'm still working so I can't really do much with them during the day, but since Seoul's public transportation system is so awesome, they're finding their way around. Over the weekend, we took a train to the south eastern coast of Korea to Gyung Ju with two of my cousins and saw a lot of historical stuff and a really nice 1000+ year old Buddhist temple. It was definitely a big change from the city-ness of Seoul, there was sooo much greenery and mountains and just open areas of rice fields and lotus fields. The air seemed a lot cleaner too. I'll try to post some pictures up once I get internet in my apartment.

Otherwise things are going well, We're in the middle of midterms at my school right now so I have a million papers to grade and progress reports to write. And the biggest news of the last week and the coming week, its Harry Potter mania!! I saw the movie last Wednesday, I enjoyed it a lot, and I CAN'T wait for the book to come out on Saturday! I'm going to have to read it slowly to make it last longer. The key questions: Will JK kill Harry? Is Snape good or bad? I personally think that JK CAN'T kill Harry, it would just be too awful. And I have no idea bout Snape - good or bad, I'll probably still hate him. Only time will tell - til Saturday!

Time to go see some more of Seoul!

Yay for Visiters. I'm so happy for you. I just emailed you an article about the guy who is the voice of harry potter books on tapes. Its interesting. And it has some audio clips. You should listen to them. They are fun.
