Welcome to My Huge Picture of a Tiger

I know. I'm working on it. I've lost the other picture that used to be up there, and I am continuing to look for it. Until I find it again, you get the giant picture of a tiger. Enjoy!~

PS: I've taken care of the huge tiger picture, but just in case you didn't see it!

Typical Night in Korea

The nights around here have been pretty jammed pack with excitement. I'm not talking about the 'fun nights' when we go out with friends. I'm talking about weekday nights, when we go to bed at 9:30pm. Here's a run down of our nights as of late:

11:00pm Drunk signing from an old man out side our window.

11:10pm Drunk yelling from an old man. Old woman yelling at the old man to shut up.

Special Event!!(if there is a Korean game) 11:00pm-5:30am Possibly drunk shouting "대한민극!" (Go Korea!) from rowdy fans. Yes it lasts all night long!

4:20am Loud piercing alarm goes off outside our apartment. When this happens, Ed and I are the only ones who seem concerned (as we are the only ones leaving our apartment).

4:30am Alarm still going off. No movement from any one else in the building.

4:35am Alarm still going off.

4:40am Security gets out of bed to turn of the alarm. He does this by banging the alarm unit loudly.

5:00am - 7am Peaceful sleep.

Football (ahem, soccer) Fever!

Go USA!!

(and go Korea--I mean I have to cheer for my 'adoptive' home right?)

Yup its June!

Annyong Saram! (Hello People!)


So I guess I should update you all on what we have been doing here. Basically keeping busy, doing the same ol' same ol'. Which is playing, playing and playing. And I guess we do some teaching in there some times!


We've had a busy couple of months here. I think the biggest thing we have done is head up to Seoul for the Dream Concert (and my birthday). You, of course, are wondering what the Dream Concert is. Well lets just say its like the biggest concert in Korea. All year long. Its similar to a three day music festival in the States, but not three days and with out all the cool side show stuff you can see. But you do get to see twenty of the top K-Pop bands all in one night. Imagine 40,000 of your closest friends (aka High School Girls) screaming along with all your favorite K-Pop bands. It was fantastic!


Needless to say it was an interesting, yet really exciting, experience. You all by now are aware of our fascination with the monster that is K-Pop. So we were in our element. The funny thing is that we were soooo far away we really couldn't see anything (or hear for that matter---did I mention there were like 40,000 high school girls there??). So we ended up watching the concert on TV when it played for the 'nation' the next weekend. It was definately better being there to experience it first hand!


While we were there, we did a short tour of Seoul. We didn't really do much other than walk around, but it was actually kind of nice to 'see' some of the tourist attractions that Seoul has to offer.

I've tried several times to upload the pictures for you guys, but for some reason I can't get them to upload. SOOOOO what I've done is add them to the right panel. You can click on the picture and that will take to you the online photo storage service I use.

Sorry for the inconvience, but at least this way to get to see all the pictures!
