Thanks!
It's great because I've run into a couple of people in the area lately who tell me they're fellow Bison. But I would love to be somewhere oversees, were you a part of a teaching program? Well, I bet you'll be glad to be back in these parts after so long!

Nandi...
The hook in Common's song I Want You is sung by Will.i.am. (of the Black Eyed Peas). And I totally agree with you about the hook and beat... they make the song mesh together perfectly. :)

Hey there!
Yes-it's freezing in MN! A move to some place nice and warm may be in the near future:) Love your profile too. I see you've been to Thailand(my homeland). Last time I visited was almost 20 years ago. We loved it there-so beautiful and the food delish! I think it's so great you're in another country teaching. And you have such a beautiful daughter. Have a wonderful holiday yourself! Take Care! xxxx, ~BB

You and I are on the same page about those DB Clay Wallets! I was just looking over your profile and noticed that you're a documentary producer. I'd love to learn more about your work, as it's always something that I've been interested in! Take care.

Hi New Splendora Friend!
How are you? Thanks for checking out my diary & my profile! How is living in Korea? I've never been to the 'motherland' and surprisingly, I haven't really wanted to. I have always been disappointed by the narrowmindedness Korean people often display. I commend you and I'll send you plenty of good vibes during your stay there. Any idea on when you'll return stateside? Keep in touch Nandi! XOXO Jane

Living abroad sound very cool. what do you teach? I'm looking into getting my feet wet in teaching (on the community college level since I don't have my Ph.D...but thinking about applying to start it in Fall 08) I've been abroad, but not to korea...but i'll get there one day.

I love that you are traveling all over Asia--I'm so jealous. I lived in Japan for a year and taught english thru the JET program. I did get to travel all over Japan and also hit up Thailand--but seems like you've been everywhere! How long have you lived in Seoul?
