Chuseok was great. I ate all kinds of foods that I can't remember the names of. I had shark, shark eyes, squid, various raw fish in cocktail sauce, some shellfishes served various ways, like 12 different kinds of Kimchi, who knows what soups, and more different kinds of rice than I knew could exist. Most of it was really delicious, but the raw clam was just a bit too difficult for me. It was the first and only (so far) food that I have had to politely refuse to take seconds of. Gana's family were great hosts. She's a great friend.

I had to shoot down a few nasty ideas about me and Gana from my roommates, lol. I have too much respect for Gana and Mark for me to be that way. It would have been better if Drew came, though.

Got my Korean phone finally. I got to talk to Hyewon on it and it was much better than not talking :). I would like to talk to her on Skype again soon, though. I want to ask her a question about her past. She asked me if I would ever get back together with Gabrielle. Of course, the answer is no, but that we don't know what God has in store. I wanted to ask her if she would ever be back together with a certain ex of hers who she told me she broke up with because of a disagreement about having a long-distance relationship. It's not like a priority subject or anything, but it's kindof important since she'll be coming to Korea again, and she might see him some more. It's only significant because she said he was her longest lasting relationship.

That brings me to another point. Her track record is terrible. She says she's had lots of boyfriends and her longest lasting relationship is a few months. I don't want to be another page in that book, but you never get anywhere if you don't take chances, right? Maybe it'll be different this time... and besides, there's no way I'm passing up the opportunity with a girl of her caliber. Just a few years ago I felt like any girl like her would be way out of my league. I mean, pretty girls just don't seem to go for scrawny, nerdy, Christian guys.

It's back to homework, though. I didn't get any done over Chuseok. A couple times I was actually in the mood for Statics, but Drew had the Statics book, and he didn't come with us, so I couldn't.... I think that today I'm just gonna do my easy homework: Korean1 and Creation/Evolution. This way I can kinda get my head in the game and do the difficult homework either tomorrow or tonight.

Last night I had a dream that I was in Gana's car again with her family and stuff, and we pulled through a gas station where someone was putting bags of fertilizer all around. In my dream, I told Gana that that was a bad idea, and she said we could go talk to the gas station manager about it. Turns out, the manager was the guy packing fertilizer around the station. I got Gana to call the police, but they wouldn't do anything, so I said lets just get in the car and go. We left, and as we drove away I saw an explosion out the back window of her car. Then I woke up... I'm pretty sure fertilizer and gas takes a lot more time than that to become volatile, but it made me miss Quad 4...I never got to blow anything up there, but my friends all seemed to at least appreciate my hobbies.

...for the record, I'm not gonna blow anything up illegally...

I watched "Get Him to The Greek" last night. ...... Oh goodness. It was hilarious, but don't watch it.
