T-Shirts

Ok, so I MUST publish my collection of T-shirt photos. One thing you gotta love is a T-shirt that is hilarious because it's witty, hilarious because it's wild, or hilarious because it tries to be witty and wild, but accomplishes neither and ends up just being hilarious. Then there are imitation T-shirts which make me wonder if someone just got them wrong or if someone was intentionally trying to make a funny shirt. "Adidass" (note the 'ass' at the end!) shirts are a good example.

Ok...gotta get my Adidass back to work now. Photos coming soon!

Fulbright Fall Conference in Gyeongju

The conference was great and I left feeling even more hyped up about camp than I had been when I arrived! CF 09 / CF5 (our 5th year!) is going to be incredible!

On the way to the bus terminal in Gyeongju I looked around thinking how great it must be to live there--clean air, so much to do, and it's such a great place to hang out and take pictures!

At the terminal I saw my FIRST homestay mom and brother. It was great to see them after such a long time. Man, gotta call them up!

I also saw a foreign guy, and I don't usually stare, but he had red frizzy hair that was a near exact match in color and style to the old Korean lady sitting right next to him. Frizzy foreign guy and old lady with fading old lady hairstyle--seriously, from the back you'd think they were family!

I was gonna take their picture, but man, that old lady moved fast! By the time I had my phone on camera mode she had already stood up and walked out with her friend.

English Drama 08


For those of you that don't know, ever since 2000 when I came to Korea as a Fulbrighter and was placed at Pohang Middle School, I have been working every fall with school's English drama competition team, and we have been successful almost every year since at the city, provincial and national levels.

Our biggest year so far was 2002 when we went all the way to the nationals and beat out even the best HIGH SCHOOLS in Korea for the Grand Prize

Last year, the 07 team won the Pohang city and Gyeongbuk province competitions, and THIS YEAR the team won the Pohang city competition again!

Here is a photo of this year's team. I'll put up more later, but take a look at this year's champions! We're proud of you guys!
