The Invention of Korea

Thursday is National Foundation Day in Korea and today a student told me it was when Korean was invented. Precious! I love my job.

I also am still so freaking in love with the fact that Crispix showed up during my Costco visit this weekend. I literally JUST had a dream about buying them the night before and then, just out of the blue, there they were at Costco! I've been to Costco here maybe three times before and they've never had them. Makes me so happy...I (and this blog) have talked about my love for Crispix multiple times before. I've also been chatting them up a lot lately here in Korea because I was desperate to have someone buy them for me at the commissary. But, now I don't have to! SO EXCITING!

Here is what I don't love, though. The fact that you have to be a member of Bally Fitness to go to the ONE Zumba class they offer. Tonight, they let me go to the first class for free, but if I want to go from now on, I have to pay $120 per month, which is what I currently pay for 3 months at my gym. So depressing. I want to take Zumba classes SO BAD. I don't even want to teach, I just want to follow along in the back. Le sign.

But, to end on a good note, I had the BEST hamburger I have possibly ever had last week (and also the week before!!). It is at a place called Salt and Butter (at the Apgujeongrodeo stop, exit 6...turn leftat Paris Crossiant and go down about three blocks, it's on the left) and it was AMAZING. I had the California burger and a ROOT BEER (a rarity in Korea) and I pretty much died of happiness. So, if you're in Korea, go there and eat one as soon as possible. And, if you're not, come visit me and we'll go together!

Ok, well dream big people! Life is so great now. Just FYI.
