The water under the bridge is low and the peaks are shallower than they were before. I lean over and press my fingers into the underside of the rusty handrail. It’s not far to go if you walk sideways down the embankment. It is maybe forty feet down.
I’ll just go for a swim.
I’ll just strip and go for a swim.
It’s cold so taking off my clothes is so vulnerable,...

Anybody staying in Korea next year?
Maybe I will come back. I would like to know >__>
@for why?? : I’m just leaving my options open in case I don’t get into a school that I want to/can go to. It might be the best thing to do to go back, or it might not. We’ll see. At the moment, my plan is to go to grad school next year, but I’ve done what I can do for that so far. :p

Oh. I don't know. Yes?
me: -reading the “last chance sale” page on forever21- Aren’t these girls going to be upset when they show up at New Year’s in the same sparkly silver dress? All this websites are selling the same sparkly silver dress.
dad: -barely paying attention, coos- No, they’ll all be happy that they’re wearing the correct thing.
me: Oh. … that’s probably...

I'm done.
this-t00-shall-pass:
I’m done hating my body. I’m changing this right now. No more sitting around like a fat ass. No more fruit juice. No more shitty food. I’m changing things right now. I’m setting limits and losing weight before graduation.
I’m changing things right now. Sigh.

Top 40 Korean foods according to CNN →
josephgutierrez:
I think that it’s a pretty fair list, although I think that bibimbab and galbi are too low on it. I am definitely not going to argue with first though. I fucking love haejangguk.
Bingsu also too low.
What a great article to start a classroom discussion. The best topic to get students talking regardless of level in my experience is food. If I were in Korea I might print out...

her: I have allllll vowels

Last night
raian:
Kyeongeun and I checked out a place called Beans Bins.
One of our good friends told us that the waffles there were top notch. So we get there and we see one of these guys in a pink sweater.
Why didn’t I take a picture? Was in shock. You could call me a liar or you can believe that there was a snow monkey in a pink sweater on the left shoulder of a Korean woman. I want a pet monkey.

The following is an excerpt from a peer review.
I have to write around four of them a week and I hate it so much that I no longer have the energy to be hateful. I have decided to give up pretending most of their work is academic and just shoot the shit in my peer reviews.
“ Is it weird that this story reminded me of White Fang? I just read it recently. White Fang is all about how this wolf wants to be a dog, to be beholden to man, and so...
