Bladey

NinaJade...I share your sentiment hahaha Love this guy.

I loved the little guy in Giant. He seemed so perfectly matched with the character later played by Lee Bum Soo, it was amazing.

Yeah, UK opens up a world of possibilities but I"m not sure how well it'll go. It's very formative though, for experiencing independence and learning all about yourself. I never really got it before- but it trully is trying to find yourself and who and what you are.

Hi there, see you're watching Jejoongwon, hope it is your taste. It is my top favourite drama. :) And nice to meet you.

Aww, dont feel that way. You reply when you can, I am myself offline for lengthy amounts of time these days. Thius is the first time I am here sin ce March 30, actually. I've been busy doing teaching and some writing. How is your dramathoning? Watched anything interesting latey?

Hi there! How's it going?

Will give it a try, for sure, once it airs. Such experiences tend to make us stronger, which is why they are so valuable but there are many times when I feel just like crying sometimes.

Haha.Sounds like you still haven't exhausted all options, C4U, that's great I"m sure you'll end up with something soon.Yeah, actuaslly I do think there was a study examining how females bond better with cats and how males bond better with dogs...would go and add a new meaning to the phrase fight like cats and dogs haha. Yeah, I was very inexperiences when I first came to the UK, right now I feel this ecperience is very transformative.

I suspect it has something to do with who is the chief in a given flock. haha, sounds like he really wants some action :D Best of luck taming the beastly puppy :D How is your job search going? I don;t know, really, we shall see, though I am finding it enjoyable, but I still have much t learn myself. Teaching is a good way to learn, in all honesty. You give some, you get some, it;s really an activity based on giving, but the good things is you do get something back. Salaryman is pretty quirky, loved it myself. I am waiting until rooftop prince and king2hearts stop airing and also that quenn in hyun's man ( are the4y playing on the princess man much ior what?)

Haha, C4U, animals tend to see me as a pushover too :D My dad is always the one who they listen to the most :D tey always seem to listen to the dads :D You know, pulling a dog from something seems out of the question, carrying a little treat could do the treat. Sounds like you are having loads of fun with Achilles. Yes, I am doing a concrete course with students and we;ve been going through certain texts- it is still literature that I am teaching in general. Yes I am quiote curious about the Korean version of JIN too. I know what you mean with the refreshing part. But it is also very good to take like a monthly break (I just did that since I was too busy to watch anything) and then watching dramas feels different again, too. Giant is a nice watch, especially if you like Salaryman, if you ever get to see it. Salaryman has like 20 episodes so if you like that, you may like Giant.

Funny, one of my german shepher's is named Hector :D But we've had him since he was a puppy of about 6 months- he was such a cute furball, I can't even begin to say, but a very naughty furball too :D He's still naughty, whuch can get problematic as he tends to dig up my mom;s garden :P I had to train him a little because otherwise he would have overwhelmed everyone with his sheer strength. Sounds like you got yourselves a unique dog too -two different eye colors :D German shepherds/ huskies are the mist lovely companions. So, you will be doing obedience training with him? What's he like? Teaching in general is enjoyable - especially when I see that my students gain something or are inspired by something- it is so very gratifying! But marking essays is agonizing. Yes, it was Giant and I loved it, I am now wishing for more more Lee Bum Soo, though..how is your drama-watching?

haha! I"m sure you can! I believe in you :D

A new dog? Aww what's the name? A young one or did you aqdopt one from a shelter? No, not much, been teaching and I haven't been here for over a month but I finished a biug drama over the last few days.

online college? that is a very interesting option. So I guess it would be like a one year to a Bachelor's and in the meantime you can keep preparing for Korea. Very exciting! Wishing you all the best with it, Sleep. Looking forward to reading something about your adventures in Korea some day :)

Haha, it is when I get to notice that they were inspired by something or learned something new - it;s a fabulihs feeling to know that perhaps just perhaps I was able to give something of myself and of hat I know to them. Oh, fabulous idea, Sleep! Yes, I think that any experience of teaching or learning in foreign country is like that. ou ciould also have private conversations - and then trade English for Korean that way. That and you know hopw popular those cultural travel books are nowaydays :D There is a whole career coming from just going to do something in a different country :D When are you finishing?

Teaching comes as part of the PhD experience in my case and I dont know whether it's something I want to do or not- this experience will give me an opportunity to find out, so I embrace it. It's pretty fun the talking to and with sudents part the essay marking is much much harder. It's agonizing in fact, especially when I think about how each point really matters for the student. Lol I really like "working on" in relation to dramas, makes it sound like a job :D Bad on them for doing the projects so late, were these presentations integral to exams?

Oh, so you have a flat and you;re renting it alone? I know how tough that can be. It also gets very, very lonely. I think that's the wors part- it eventually gets o a point where the echoes of others lives reach you but you are as if outside of it all.

Enjoy your summer then, lucky woman :) Hopefully, you do not have many exams? I am going forward to doing PhD and I have been asked to do teaching this semester myself already, including marking essays- that was stressful because I know how important every single point is. That's why I have been busy for the last month and I will be a lot more busy with the project I am writing from now on that's why I'll probably be around less often, though July and August. and December holidays are probably when I'll be around more. Your Dramadzilla seems to be not growing or shrinking much eiter, are you watching any of the current trendy dramas?

I can understand that how you feel I really do- I have days like that too, days when I just want to stay at home and be my little self, days when I wish I was 15 again. My parents never pushed me towards getting a job- but I wanted to because I wanted to get more independent. However, being independent means precisely that you have to get a grip and do a job or another and do it well and it also means you have less time fior just yourself, as you also have to take care of yourself because no one else will. There are only moments or weekends when you can be your little self again, watching dramas and squaling with delight at little things. And believe me those moments pass away too quickly. Do you have some family in the capital? I think if it is so very far away, commuting every day wouldn't really be an option. Or you could look for some onlie job, editing, writing reviews?

lol of course i did. i was eating while watching too and since i had food ready it only took a few moments to make me some dinner. As for sleep i was so tired on wednsday i dropped dead on my bed, the next day i was so rested that i did spend the entire 24 hours just watching with a thre hour nap in between and then for the next two days i had a normal restful 10 hour sleep, only I spend the entiure saturday finishing the drama- meaning some good 16 hours. Lee Boom soo has a charimastic appeal and i donlt care much for handsome - I like likeable actors like Fred astaire- he wasnt handsome and yet he had a certain charm) and I find LBS face very masculine so to me he is quite handsome I suppose. And he's talented.
