http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013/06/staying-in.html
Saturday, June 15, 2013. Reading, eating, sleeping, and periodic visits with friends: not bad! I fly to South Korea on Monday and will be staying for a week. I might not bring my computer, so don’t get anxious if the blogging stops. It just means I’m up to my neck in kimchi and bimbimbap. June 15, 2013 at 2:21 PM. I didnt know you were going to South Korea! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. How Do You Say Blank In Cantonese. Perdida No Quotidiano Brasileiro. Be Just Like Me.

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: December 2012
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 30, 2012. 8221; I bellowed to my roommate, seated about four feet away from me in front of his computer. “Hm,” he commented. “It’s probably because this building is so dirty.” I don't think he likes our digs. Friday, December 28, 2012. In Chinese, there is a phrase that goes “cold enters through the feet” ( 寒从脚入. Today I trekked back to Fashion Lady. Cold weather continues to mystify me. Wednesday, December 26, 2012. Monday, December 24, 2012. Saturday, December 22, 2012. The guy in the ...

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: April 2013
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 27, 2013. My boss is preparing a book on parenting methods (I’m not allowed to share the title, top secret stuff! Wednesday, April 24, 2013. Given my recent decision to try to find a job more related to economic development than Chinese, I’ve found it really hard to motivate myself to study new words and review old grammar patterns in preparation for the testing at the end of my program. Here’s hoping that a burst of inspiration comes my way. Monday, April 22, 2013. We hobnobbed, and then...

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: Emergency Response
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013/06/emergency-response.html
Monday, June 24, 2013. But I worried about what the other diners may have thought of the lonely young foreigner sobbing over his plate of food. Momentarily blinded, I was fortunate to be spared their derision. Sorry for the lack of posts from Korea! I had a terrific time, and often came home too tired to blog.

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: China: Pros
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013/07/china-pros.html
Saturday, July 20, 2013. Avoiding unpacking, I’m ready to list my favorite parts of China. Let’s do this. High speed rail. It's amazing: cruise along at 300 kph, watch the scenery, relish the AC/heat, and arrive at your destination in a short time without the hassle of air travel. We need this in the US. Roses Who knew Beijing had such beautiful roses? I was driven to distraction for weeks. Food Obviously. Guys, Chinese food is so good. We should eat more lamb/mutton here in the US! Hutongs near my apart...

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: Reaping What We Sow
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013/03/reaping-what-we-sow.html
Wednesday, March 13, 2013. Reaping What We Sow. Vigilant readers of the blog will remember a post from last December. In which I described an unscrupulous journalist who took essays that my classmates had written and published an article (including student names) that called those classmates whiny little babies. In my eyes, it was a sad and revealing moment for Chinese media. 8221; Second, a journalist is supposed to be sensory organ of readers at home, helping them understand the situation on the ground...

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: A Better Mousetrap
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013/01/a-better-mousetrap.html
Saturday, January 5, 2013. The rat entrance, a ventilation fan behind the stove. Two nights ago I was peeling a dessert apple when I thought I detected movement in the kitchen’s ventilation fan/ rat entrance. My neighbor's trash, piled outside my front door. It’s a fan, rigged up right in front of the rat entrance. Any invaders would get their little pink noses snapped and would then retreat in fright:. Considering that the kitchen is directly adjacent to my roomie’s room, and that no door separate...

¡KELLER'S COGITATIONS!: June 2013
http://kellerscogitations.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 26, 2013. Two days ago I mailed my winter wardrobe home to Arizona. After doing some research online I learned that the post office was in a hotel near my apartment, so I hustled over there with several bags overflowing with scarves, gloves, and wooly socks. At the front desk of the hotel I found a friendly-looking person. 8220;Hello,” I said in Chinese, “Is there a post office here? 8220;No,” she said, “It is in a nearby building.”. 8220;The tower next door? 8221; I asked. I had a terrif...

Thursday, January 31, 2013. 8220;How do you say this,” the guy said, pointing at the cat. 8220;CAT” I responded slowly. 8220;No,” he said shortly. “Not a cat. This stays in the mountains.”. Maybe I was holding a leopard. I don’t have much to report from today. Surrounded by good food and drink, I have been gobbling my way through Luang Prabang. Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Would ‘’ be more appropriate than “”? Sunday, January 27, 2013. How do you wrap it up with a vine? Friday, January 25, 2013. I head o...
