“Love’s not a grain, it won’t decay on you.”

Random guilt post.
A couple weeks ago I was hit with a pretty bad case of homesickness, and in response, I sent out a few postcards, letters, and packages to make some sort of human connection. Some of these packages had accompanying letters or postcards to go along with them, so I put them in the package along with whatever else I was sending.
The lady at the counter hands over a customs form for me to report...

The new iPad
Me: The new iPad is going be unveiled next week.
Tyler: Oh really? I wonder if that's going to be compatible with my I don't care.
Unknown.
Ended up watching Unknown instead :/, My plans to watch Tangled were foiled yet again. Perhaps tomorrow?
And J to the izzo, Leen to the izzay, in reference to your response to that one picture, this picture:
The internet is madness.
Tangled.
It’s finally here! I can watch it now!
Come on Korea, you’re just starting to show movies like Black Swan and The King’s Speech now? Other countries probably started releasing the DVD’s already. Let’s get with it people.

Freudian slip, anyone?
Pastor: Let's thank the choir for singing us that lovely song.
Audience: *Round of applause*
Pastor: Alright, let's introduce our next perfor--I mean, testimony.
GIRAFFES!

Where are the men who do projects like this?
Follow-up question: Why aren’t we married and growing old together right now?

Nice save.
Mattieu: I got your postcard!
Me: YAYAYAYYAY!
Mattieu: You should have put some smelly thing on it so I could smell what Korea smells like.
Me: Speaking of smells, I smell like Korean BBQ like crazy.
Mattieu: Why? Just randomly? Is it just the normal thing to do there?
Me: LOL no, I don't randomly secrete Korean BBQ smell.
Mattieu: Don't lie.
Me: What. You think my skin secretes Korean BBQ smell because I'm Korean? RACIST!
Mattieu: No, it's because you are BBQ. Duh.
Korean BBQ.
Pros: Korean BBQ.
Cons: Your breath, hair, clothes, fingers, and skin in general smelling like eau de BBQ for a good 24 hours.
Not being able to crawl straight into bed for fear of having to wash your sheets of the BBQ smell, which, as we all know, fades but never truly disappears.

They don't sell tacos.
Amanda: What do you miss the most?
Me: I miss tacos! You know? A good taco. Being able to drive to McDonalds whenever you want, order a taco, and having them give it to you, just like that.
Amanda: Do you mean snack wraps, or do you mean Taco Bell?
Me: ... Taco Bell. Yeah, it has been waaaay too long.

Yesterday I was an emo fat fuck who ate my feelings. I wasn’t upset about anything in particular. It was just one of those days when you wake up feeling shitty for no reason.
My coping mechanisms?
1. Staying in all day.
2. Stuffing my face with anything edible.
3. Sleeping on and off for a total of 17 hours.
4. Avoiding everybody because I couldn’t bear to face friends,...

Sometimes I wonder how many people on tumblr are awesome, and how many people became awesome by stealing cool people’s shit.
How many of us are vicariously living through others? Who actually has a distinct voice and/or identity on this site?

“Triangle” (or “sahm gak”) was one of the first Korean words I learned upon arriving. This makes me sad for a couple reasons: 1) because I ate the triangular kim bbaps they sold everywhere, all the time, like a fatty cakes, and 2) because it sucks me further into the black hole that is hipsterdom.
I guess dicking around abroad, being too afraid to make the transition from college to the real...

Gmail Youtube h4x0rs.
Lately I’ve been having issues watching certain videos on Youtube because there is some sort of copyright issues or technical problem that makes them unwatchable. Korea doesn’t pay royalties or some sort of international mumbo jumbo makes certain videos on the ‘tube restricted, so I sit there like
But maybe it doesn’t have to be that way. Mischievous grin.

Pretense: What happened to simply enjoying each...
Quite a while ago, I went out with a member of the opposite gender. He was trying a liiiiittle too hard to hang out with me, but I personally had no interest beyond making new friends, since I am, after all, quite literally alone in another country. I went to where he worked because there are a lot of other foreign, English speaking teachers there, and I announced that I was alone and wanted to...

This is fantastic.
What have we learned today?
Absolutely nothing.
I’m too busy being young, beautiful, and stupid.
Cheese graters and fuck.
My brother and I decided to make lunch one afternoon and we decided we wanted pizza. But we were like, “Frozen premade pizza? NOOOOOOOOOO!”
We wanted the fresh stuff. So fresh, in fact, that we had to buy premade dough… Because we didn’t know how to make it ourselves… Because we suck.
I was grating a block of mozzarella on a cheese grater, but being an...

5:10 AM: I suddenly miss Target so much. Lazy summer afternoons, clothes, jewelry, and the dollar section guuuuuuuh.
