speak korean!

my friends have decided that if i speak english to them, they're going to hit me. i am allowed to use english words, but i have to say them with a korean accent.

for example...i can say "you're face is handsome" but i have to say "ni ulgoolee han-sum"

i also have to say:
ah-ees-ka-reem: ice cream
te-re-bi-jon: television
cho-ko-rit: chocolate

ha. great. it think this is good for me though. the rest of the day i spoke in korean. WOOHOO!

i think economy is my favorite class. today the mood was really good. he singles me out sometimes, but he singles other people out too. he jokes with me like just another student.

before, in economy, we played an english game. it was like scrabble...kind of. i was the moderator. i came up with the words "ashen" and "abet". they didn't believe those were real words. they looked them up on their cells though. ha!

today he wanted to continue class after the bell. jiyoon just said "saranghabnida [we love you]" and he immediately answered "gurae[ok.]" and let us pack up. haha.

i was really tired most of the day. i barely talked, even to enni. at lunch it got better. sohee pointed out that after jeju i became quiet and tired.

my friends INSIST that i am korean. they always joke around about how good my ENGLISH is. haha. we made fun of enni's accent today. i have no accent. MUWAHA!

i bought canvas and paints today. for two small canvases, one big canvas, paints [set of 12] and 2 brushes, it cost me 35,000 won. about $25. that's the price of one canvas. SCORE. i don't know what the quality of the canvas or paints are yet...but they look decent at least.

i crocheted in class today. they were amazed at how fast i am.

brought my rubiks cube. didn't take it out until enni came. she mixed it up for me. she thinks its fun to mix it. she insists on me looking away while she's doing it. like it makes a difference. koreans were amazed.

we actually learned some russian today. YES.

met another dude from the states. he lived there for 6 years. he seems like a cool guy. he's a third year. he told us that third years have to go to yaja until 10pm. ughhhh...lame.

tomorrow i have basketball! we are going to play a game again, but i think with the whole class... on the real baskets!!! YESSSSSSS.
