Soju Diaries: Last Day in Korea
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2011/09/last-day-in-korea.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Friday, September 9, 2011. Last Day in Korea. Today is our last full day in Korea. Movers are coming this afternoon to take away everything our schools have purchased, which is to say everything but cheap, plastic dinnerware and someone's discarded mattress I carried in from the parking lot. It is going to cost us 8 bucks (8,000 wan) to throw away the mattress. We will sleep on the mattress tonight and then get rid of it tomorrow morning. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Soju Diaries: Driving Would Be Nice
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2011/08/driving-would-be-nice.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Tuesday, August 23, 2011. Driving Would Be Nice. Walking to the hospital, we get a good view of Namsan Tower which is one of the most recognizable sites in Seoul. I look like a nerdlinger, and you can't really see the baby or Namsan Tower in this picture though. I look like this when we get home from an outing. Trying to get baby Charlie to open her eyes for the passport photo. Is she like, hours old? I instinctively gave him my best "areyoueffingkiddingme? So true, so true!

Soju Diaries: June 2011
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Thursday, June 30, 2011. S appointment took all of 10 minutes and cost the equivalent of $2 USD. The. 90-minute roundtrip subway ride was more expensive (and time consuming). Upon arrival the nurses quickly checked my blood pressure, weight, and urine, and then I was ushered into my doctor. S office for a quick meeting. After a quick check for anemia and swelling I was pronounced very healthy. The doctor then briefly checked the baby. T have another doctor. After the suctio...

Experiencing Korea since 2009. Tuesday, August 30, 2011. On Football Fandom and Kyle. This story is about more than football. It is about what it means to be a fan. It is about shared experiences. It is about friendship. Specifically, it is about a man named Kyle. I dunno dude. Our defense is suspect.". My prediction. ducks 19, tigers 22. What kind of alumnus says. You should be ashamed of yourself. Dude, i don't want to win the natty with a loss to the SEC. It would do very little for me. Put your homer...

Soju Diaries: Bali Cycle Tour
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2011/08/bali-cycle-tour.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Saturday, August 20, 2011. Not sure if he just randomly found this spider or if it was a nearby friend's pet. This guy was much more calm holding it than I was. I look like I am about to soil myself. The Australian kid is not impressed. At that age, I would have run away. It is a very cool experience to ride off alone in an unfamiliar place. When you are in the middle of a group of tourists, it just isn't the same. Rice farmland in a village in Bali. On Football Fandom and ...

Soju Diaries: Chungcheongbuk-do Part Two
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2011/08/chungcheongbuk-do-part-two.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Sunday, August 14, 2011. Click Here for Part One. We came upon our pension late the night before, and because of the darkness, I was not aware that where we slept overlooked a lake. So much of our sightseeing in Korea has been spent at overcrowded festivals, so it is nice to experience places in "The Land of the Morning Calm" that resemble Korea's exonym. A view of the inside of the restaurant we ate breakfast in. We had an hour or so after breakfast until the time we were ...

Soju Diaries: March 2011
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Tuol Sleng and The Killing Fields. View of the screen. Of course, it is never easy to remain neutral and Cambodia surely received funding from China and North Vietnam in exchange for use of land. If Sihanouk had sided with the US and South Vietnamese, there is no guarantee that the chain of events that followed would have been bloodless. Barbed wire over the entrace. Each torture room had one picture on the wall that showed the devices in practice.

Soju Diaries: October 2010
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Tuesday, October 26, 2010. Up Mt Kinabalu- Part 3. The terrain past the check point changed quite drastically. It was all granite, no vegetation and no more steps. There was a rope attached to the ground that you could hold onto and I found myself pulling on the rope with my arms instead of using my legs. I passed all of the bouncing headlamps ahead except for two Frenchman who must be part mountain goat. I found a decent rock to sit on and then shrieked in horror as someth...

Soju Diaries: November 2010
http://fromoregontokorea.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Experiencing Korea since 2009. Sunday, November 28, 2010. There is a Costco near our place that we frequent on occasions when we can no longer suppress the urge to indulge in the comforts of the US. There are multiple floors inside and when we go we walk right past the clothes and electronics section (really, what money do we have and how would we take it back with us? The worst part of going to Costco, even though it comes with the territory of being a whitey, is the stares. Here, everyone wants to ...
