I know, I know, it's still August. The air is still thick with humidity and girls are still in short shorts and high heels. However, now that the application season is getting into full swing and my students are all scurrying to get their last minute meetings in before they leave for the States/Canada/Europe, the back-to-school feel (that will never ever leave me, not matter how many years out of school I become) is creeping up on me.
Shaun (d.Apollo) left Seoul a few weeks back. Jamie and I are getting ready to move into our new apartment in less than 2 weeks. Between cleaning, packing, working and breathing... it dawned on me. Summer of 2009 is now over.
I can almost vividly remember each summer since I've graduated undergrad. Each summer had it's own flavor; from summer camps to working retail to late night clubbing, each had it's own interests and adventures. 2009 was filled with whiskey and kpop, mud and rain. And of course, more self reflection.
Not sure what I'm getting at, but to all of you heading back to school this fall, good luck! May you enjoy the last few weeks left before the new school year.

Just out of curiosity, what are the boys wearing?
Today I found out her real name. No, I didn't ask her myself; when the class was doing a group assignment I walked to her desk and found her last name on a paper.

are you dating Jamie?
How did this broodwar romance spark?
Aren't you 10 years older than him? 27 vs 17
Also Rekrul seems to have spawned a chubby face (o____o)
The person wearing the deny everything shirt isn't Idra is it? He seems so innocent IRL vs his bully persona online.
Come this fall, Jamie and I have been together 2 years (give or take a few dramatic months). Broodwar romance sparked, well, because ZvP is his best match up. ^^
And it's more like I'm 28 and he's 25. -____-

Rekrul, are you trying to look like Giyom? I remember once a long time ago, Elky cut his hair short and since it was blonde, it looked like Giyom's hair at the time and when Jinnam saw it, he said "HEY!! YOU NOT GIYOM, OKAY??"

Good luck with the move Susie and if you need anything don't hesitate to ask me. I can't wait for this hot weather to end tbh - my British self can't cope with the humidity - roll on snow and coldness.

who cares? :D
Normally I wouldn't but for some reason, I got curious. ^^

Too bad all the times I go to Korea can only be in the summer. Winter must be too awesome.
It's pretty awesome - the wind is very biting, but I'm so excited to photograph snow *fingers crossed we get it.* Winter also = an excuse to wear ridiculous sweaters and hats.
