THROUGH THE BROWN EYES OF A CANADIAN-KOREAN WOMAN
Okay. So I have been pushing this aside and literally forced myself to NOT watch this movie for a while. The reason being, I knew it was going to remind me of my high school days. I knew it would bring back flash memories I didn’t want to remember. For some odd reason, as soon as I saw the trailer, it was like the mirror I didn’t want to look
Some people like to say “who knows what?!” And I know for sure that a close friend of mine loves to say that. As if it’s a set phrase for everything. “Who knows what life will bring you”, “who knows what will happen next?”, “Who knows?” etc etc. I think I was always the one who said in reply “God knows.” Yeap. God knows. God knows that I went through
It’s now been almost 3 years since we came back to Korea from Singapore. I never once complained about living here in Seoul or living with my in-laws. I always liked the idea of living together and everything just seemed to flow nicely. Right now I am so homesick and want to get rid of this view it’s not even funny.

I have been homesick for quite a long time now. I haven’t been back home since.. I don’t even remember.

Not just your typical English teacher who teaches kids and adults but an English teacher who focuses on adults. Mainly teaching speech and communication in English. That could be from phonics, pronunciation to anything like daily conversation skills or even Keynote presentation skills.
Seems like it was just yesterday when the kids started school. Now it’s summer vacation and they are literally just fighting all day. I feel like I have to drink 5 cups of coffee to keep my metality stable. Thanks to the new Nespresso ice capsules I’m full of “coffee stock”! Hopefully this day will go well (mind you it’s only day 1 of summer break).
Josh has grown up so much. It’s amazing how such a small human being can develop skills and manage to find ways of life. There are so many different things I want him to know and explore. And although it’s just an excuse, I always don’t have time to show him and take him out to see the world. However, thankfully, God has blessed us in this great situation where
It’s great live in a community and be apart of a community that knows so much and that is willing to do so much for everyone who lives in it. Or at least who wants to be apart of it. Our apartment community and volunteers hosted a Photo Contest for everyone who lives in our condo. Anyone who wanted to be in it had the opportunity to enter a photo
