That's okay May! So we're 8 hours apart then. Let me know when you're free or want to plan a movie hangout :)

I'm in the Central U.S. What time is there for you now?

Oh, I know and can imagine! Oooh linen paper. Was it like really heavy yet soft paper? -I was on a scrapping kick for a while and not just the paper adds up fast embellishments and stuff too are pretty ridiculous. I'm particular about patterns on paper -yes I like cute and fun things, but I agree some are over the top -you know the kind that's like puking rainbows, butterflies, and cotton candy all in one. No thanks! ;P

Thanks Hope! It is hard to keep up with it, and I know it does make me feel better if I've had a bad day or if something exciting happened that I just need to tell someone/something yet don't really want to tell anyone about it ~if you get what I kind of mean? You can make soapbox rants whenever you want ;) Yours are pretty tame compared to what I'm used to or do myself sometimes :P

That sounds like a cool idea and it would help me get more familiar with Japanese as well.

Asking questions, making mistakes, and organizing new information are all keys to learning well so you're definitely on the right track. You can always put a disclaimer on your posts *I'm not an expert at ________, so please comment if you see anything incorrect or have suggestions, ect. __________.

Hmmmmmm.....good question -maybe start with the korean portion have the japanese as kind of a transitional middle part and then have the english exlanation last/interspersed as needed. Columns with each langauge side by side may not be a bad idea either....if I think of anything else I'll let you know.

I know what you mean! I haven't been able to keep track of what's airing and what people are saying is good. ~too many dramas too little time! Let me know when you're off of school and what time works for you -coordinating time zones can be tricky. You're in the UK right?

Haha love your drama holidays term :D So 4 days left of school -that's always nice. What dramas/movies are you planning on marathoning? We should watch one together sometime when you're on break. :)

Thanks! I've got a lot of projects for both school and work that really have mentally wiped me out. I've been trying to watch dramas and movies, but finding enough time to sit that long or am in the right mood is hard :P

Yeah, puppy snuggles are the best :)

Take however long as you need on the notes -I'm not going anywhere & that would be a great thing to put on your blog. I'd love to learn some japanese too -the sounds are easier than Korean, but the writing is like O_o

Unfortunately that's how most scapbook/paper stores are -they charge you an arm and a leg, but if you can't find it anywhere else you just have to suck it up and pay. :( I'm not really a scrapper either, but I love looking at them.

That's really good -I'm so bad about writing in mine that I haven't written in it for several months. I agree it helps you deal since it allows you to vent or act silly without others opinions or judgement pressing you a certain way.

It is super hard not to get distracted by life -God always seems to push me back on track somehow though :)

Hey May! Yeah, I've been busy, but good. :P How are you??? :)

Okay, I see! We used to have a store called the paper factory in town and they had oodles upon oodles of all sorts of neat papers and such. You must write in your journal a lot! I always seem to forget and when I do remember I'm usually too tired. :P

Yep, I haven't had one since I was a kid -I really should start writing that person too and see what they're up to. That's really cool, but I totally agree on the confusion with yes and no. :P Hehe

Awesome! :D It's good to get your struggles out in the open, so other people can either pray or help keep you on track -I know I need that more often than I think I do. No problem! Her story is excellent, and I'm sure you'd find it interesting. :)

Yep! We snuggled on the couch the rest of the evening after they got their supper. Plus a couple of nice walks outside for the doggy :)

All right! That would be awesome and I'm open to whatever you want to share with me. Even if I learned something before it usually clicks even better from another person or resource. Verb conjugations -I know a tiny little bit, but I think I know more verbs than the conjugations itself.

Dance parties are fun!! I had a blast dancing with friends at a friends' wedding a few weekends ago. Peace and quiet is nice though when you've been on the go a lot!

Stationary -like fun paper and stuff? I love fun colored paper. I just started corresponding with someone in Czech and I've been using some bright teal paper for the letters.

Bible studies are fun :) In high school my friends' family put on group bible studies and everyone would come discuss, play volleyball or basketball, and eat goodies. Are you a Christian too? She was working in the Phillipines. Her name's Gracia Burnham if you want to check out here story. She did a really good job and it was so nice having the church so full of people -it hasn't been like that since I was a kid :)

I know right!! I could send stuff to my favorite kpop idols and my MDL peeps without going broke. Bombs of any sort we could do without, but unfortunately people are always seeking new ways to destroy each other. :P

Awesome that would be so cool! I haven't studied korean formally in college, but I've been learning some online via TTMIK website (almost done with Lvl1), from watching dramas/movies, & listening to kpop. I took spanish throughout middle and high school and was fairly decent at it, but I've gotten really rusty and I always would forget words for things. :P I know tid bits of french and German, in addition to japanese & chinese but I can't say anything more other than hello or thank you.

I was watching a dog and a cat. I felt bad for them on saturday when they were stuck inside when I was at work all day :(

Okay! Just let me know :)

Hey Noora, I don't think it's going to work out today after all. :( Does Monday afternoon or evening work at all for you? Let me know...

Hey Noora Would an hour later be okay -the pet's owners won't be home until probably close to 4- otherwise we could do it monday afternoon around 3/4 your time (11/12ish my time), so I'd be the one staying up late for once. Monday afternoon 2/3 and 10/11 your time monday night? Let me know......I won't be at my computer until the pet owners get back.

Me too! :)

Yep! Thank goodness they didn't cut out the candy completely! I love the caramels too :)

Haha nice -we should invent it in real life and make millions ;)

Exactly! It definitely keeps you on your toes, and I agree while it's not my favorite everything happens for a reason -sometimes it takes longer to find out what.

Sweet! It sounds like you're having a great time and I read your blog post too :) Getting comfortable in a language is always exciting!! You'll have to teach me some korean and grammar ;) I have so much trouble remembering the correct words for things, otherwise I'd be fluent in a bazillion languages by now :P

Fun plans - Friday night not really, but I'm pet sitting all weekend. Saturday I have to work. Sunday pretty standard church, I'm watching a movie with Noora in the afternoon, & that night we have a missionary speaking at church which has a great story. You??

No, there is candy, but they have to essentially hand it to you which = lame. I loved running into the roads for the candy as a kid!! Silly Mayor ruining childrens' childhoods left and right :(

It would be nice wouldn't it!! It's kind of like when you're watching a drama & totally want to try what they're eating & wish your comp would open up so you could get some of it. Of course that would sort of eliminate the need for grocery stores and things....which wouldn't be all that great for our economy in the long run lol

Yep! You never know what each day will bring and accidents happen -it's part of life!

How's Korea so far?? You're welcome!! :)

Okay thanks! :) I'll try downloading some tomorrow sometime. Let's plan on Sun. around 3ish my time 11 your time -I invited someone else to join us, but idk if she's free or not. Hopefully it'll work and I'll message you if I'm on.

Okay! I'm pet sitting this weekend with no internet :P, but the people should be back mid-afternoon, so that should work unless you hear from me :D Do you download dramas or movies? Know of any websites? I couldn't remember if you did, but I know kit does and I may ask her too. I'll be bored without something to watch, so I'm planning on taking my laptop along with non-online movies/dramas ~I do work Saturday all day though hmmm....we'll see Sorry for the ramble! :P
