This weekend was absolutely unreal. I felt like I was in a bad movie (that is, a movie that I wouldn't enjoy watching, as opposed to a movie that I wouldn't enjoy living).

Hyewon and I didn't go bungee jumping, but it was totally ok. All the other stuff we did was much better. I enjoyed myself immensely. We did everything else on the list, along with a few other things, including a trip to this expensive restaurant that her cousin owns (so we ate for free), and a one-sided exchange of gifts from her parents to mine.

Long-story-short, she said "no". So, I plan to take a break from girls if I can help it. I don't want to be rude, and I don't want to burn any bridges, but I don't want 지혜 to be "second choice". She's better than that, and I would preserve both our honors by holding back until things simmer-down a little more in my mind about Hyewon. I already have a movie-date with her this Monday, but after that, if I can swing it without being a jerk, I think I'm gonna give it like a week... or maybe two weeks. Idk what the time-frame is for keeping the term "rebound" from being applicable. I guess each person determines their own time frame. On the other hand, I don't think I have time to make a stable enough relationship with her to bridge the gap between here and Texas. Maybe it would be best if I didn't pursue her anymore.

*sigh* Homework, homework, homework, homework.....

"When I was strong, you made me weak. When I was brave, you made me afraid. When I was intelligent, you made me confused. When I was adventurous, you made me content."

*yaaaawwwwwnnnn*
Finally going to Hyewon's tomorrow. Packing tonight. The plan is to be in bed at 11:00 so I can be good and awake at 5:30(or 5:45), giving me an hour and a half to get ready and to get to the bus. The bus leaves at 7:15 to Yukgury, from where I will have to tell a taxi driver to get me to the terminal in Korean, and then speak more Korean to the ticket counter, and try to catch the earliest possible bus to Seoul.

I think I got a C on the Korean midterm, just like I said I would.

I finished the Statics homework that was due today with less help from Cramster than I usually have. At first, it was a nice little confidence boost, but then I went to class and pretty much had my mind blown by the lecture. I will be reading the book this Sunday. I rescheduled a movie with 지혜 and I'm missing paintball to hang out with Hyewon, so I reeeaaaallly hope I get to go bungee jumping. It's best that I rescheduled with 지혜 because if Hyewon says yes, that will determine the whole seat-arm thing for me, (assuming 지혜 plays that game.... and is single).

Yesterday I was thinking about how Lani and I made a promise a long time ago that we would see each other in person before we married anyone else. I wonder if she's still holding to that.... Idk, I've never been one to break promises, but.... Idk.. even if I want to ask her if we can release each other from that, it means I have to talk to her again. ... I wonder if she ever thinks about me anymore. I don't want to call it malice, but I still can't believe what happened. I guess it's kinda simmered down by now. I don't think as much about it as I used to. It still kinda hurts. Maybe when I talk to her about it I'll say something like "look, we can just see each other. we don't even need to talk. then we can go back to never seeing each other again." At any rate, I won't be bringing it up until I'm about to be married. Lately, I think if she tried to talk to me again, I'd be ok with it... but I probably wouldn't engage much.

"She's like a hot cloth on a fevered head, and like a needle she leads me while I follow like a thread"

P.S. Happy 200th Blog PS139!!! From it's humble beginnings as an assignment for freshman English class.... all the way to what it is now. Also, I removed the flag counters and stuff because I found out I could get all that information from the dashboard.... except for specific states. I might bring that one back, just for curiosity. Anyway, good stuff.

I think that Mr. Brightside, by The Killers, is almost the perfect song.
I discovered, today, that the surge protector I've been using sucks.
I Had samgyupsal today, and it was pretty delicious. That's about all I remember from today....
Oh yeah, I also took my Creation/Evolution test. I will be taking a Korean Midterm tomorrow. Based on my observations of the rest of the class, and assuming that the teacher makes the test to suit the class, I think I will get a C, or, if I'm lucky, a B. Of course, that's just a prediction. I will try to defeat myself.
aaaaaaannnnndddd, I'll be going to Hyewon's place on Friday after all.
Our to-do list contains the following:
-bungee jumping (for real this time)
-ice skating (for real this time)
-to the bar (I'm glad I had the opportunity to explore my limits previously)
-shopping (.... no idea what I'm gonna buy, but in the past I've been able to turn these into fun. It'll be interesting to see if I can do that with Hyewon.... on the other hand, maybe Korean shopping centers won't take my pranks quite as kindly as Walmart usually does.)
-coffee shop (^^^^^^^^)
-meet her family (idk how to approach this. I feel like my attitude would be completely different if I was sure she would say no. ... well, if I thought she'd say no I probably wouldn't be going, but since I don't know, maybe it'd be best to just pretend she'll say yes and go for the good impression.)

"bring it back down bring it back down tonight"

My roommate, Chegwang, is asking me to pray for him more often. My roommates are pretty clear about wanting me to succeed, which is the best thing. I wonder if this is kindof a gimmick to get me to pray more, because I've been slipping away from that lately and I think he knows it. We call Chegwang "5th dimension man", because he's always reading the Bible and challenging us with his awesome questions (which aren't always about the Bible, but are always philosophically thought provoking). Everyone agree's he's weird in the very best way.

"because they were all doing it, too?"

Well, I need to go to bed "right now" but I will as soon as I finish this blog.


"Come hither, pretty fly, with the pearl and silver wing. Your robes are green and purple, there's a crest upon your head. Your eyes are like the diamond bright, but mine are dull as lead!"

been thinking about that lately. It makes me want to reexamine the appearance of a fly. When you focus on the good in something, can't you find that all of God's creation is beautiful? Of course, keep in mind, this is what said the spider to the fly.

I was supposed to go to the movies on Friday with a friend, and then on a date to the movies on Saturday night, and then to dinner with a friend on Sunday night. I made the plans when Hyewon said she wouldn't be here, and so I thought I shouldn't cancel with so many people when she said she was back. All three of my appointments cancelled because they were studying for midterms, and I didn't get to go to Seoul or see Hyewon.
...
but this weekend wasn't a total blow-out. I got some much-needed homework finished, and I got to talk to Gana about my situation with Hyewon and 지혜. I know that probably wasn't prudent, but Gana is super-cool. I have a lot of respect for her. .... and honestly, I don't stand to lose much if she leaks the information. It's on the internet, after all. Gana doesn't know 지혜, but said she thinks that she might have a boyfriend. That was useful information, but then she told me to take that with a grain of salt because she doesn't have the facts for sure, so it wasn't useful information. Also, Gana said that just from hearing the thing with Hyewon, I probably should still give her the benefit of the doubt. It's much too late for me to remember her reasoning, (because I don't, and I don't want to reason it through in my head again), but I remember it was pretty sound. I think Gana's a wise girl. Therefore, the sooner I get to see Hyewon in person, the better. Most important in my relationships right now is that I talk things over with her.

Also... so I know that this blog is a lot drama, and I'm pretty much beating a dead horse every night.... but this is where I think things through, and it is not by any means a reflection of the proportionality in weight of each thing on my mind. I talk about girls here so often, because.... well, in all of history, what has proven to be more confusing and more confounding than woman? huh? nothing.

"Therefore rid yourself of all malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all kinds of slander."

Didn't blog yesterday because my roommate had me watching a movie, "Mongol". It was actually pretty awesome. All about Genghis Khan.

Yesterday I got to hang out with Chowan. Lots of people are cancelling appointments this weekend because of studying for finals on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I hope it's nothing to do with me lol. Chowan and I just ate together and then went to play piano. She can cite read awesomely, but she said she doesn't know any songs by heart. While she was playing, (without even thinking) I caught myself staring at her eyes, though. They're very dark-black, and it was really pretty seeing them flash across the page. It complimented the music nicely. I made that mistake twice, but only twice. (we were there for about an hour and a half, maybe two) She looked at me and asked "what?" and then I looked away and kinda mumbled something and we both laughed, but it was awkward for a couple seconds. Sometimes there are girls who, no matter how well you think of them, you just have to let all that go and be just friends. She specifically used the term "just friends" a couple times in conversation, saying that she wanted to hang out a lot more or something. I wonder if she knew the American stigma about those words or if she was just translating things over. Anyway, better safe than sorry.

Ok, so I did a little bit of studying today, and I think I'm ready for whatever I need to be ready for. I'm worried about the Physics test more than any other right now, so I think that if that's all I have to worry about, I'm pretty much in the clear.

Tonight I Have to study for my Creation/Evolution test with may or may not be tomorrow. (checks)
Still don't know.

지혜 hasn't talked to me much this week. I'd like to think it's because of midterms and studying, but I'm a little afraid it's because of the way I gave her a side hug and kinda scratched her back when she complained (and she complained a lot, so I did it a lot). I have to admit, I have a hard time not staring at her, and I try *not* to take advantage of every opportunity to make physical contact, but sometimes I wonder if I paw too much. I guess there's no real way of knowing now.

I finally got Chowan to schedule a dinner with me. She's not a romantic interest, (tout de suite [Idk if I use that phrase correctly.]), but I think she's really cool and I hope we can be good friends.

I got a comment and a half from some people I don't know on my last blog. Makes me wonder about my readers, if any. The people didn't have real blogs of their own, so maybe they made accounts just so they could read other people's blogs. Makes me wonder if I know them in person.

.....I got like 30 views on my blog yesterday, which is ridiculous. I'm pretty sure I average about 6. I wonder if this has anything to do with Roger discovering my blog.......

Also, LeTourneau says I can't stay next semester. I have to say I expected this, but they have changed the policies, so Zac Nanfeld (spelling?) 's method might not work this time. Worst case scenario, I might just end up transferring to here. It would mean changing my major to maybe....Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering. That wouldn't be so bad, because then I would have those majors, and I could just take like two extra classes at a US college where the credits transfer to get my Computer Engineering major. Then I would have three Undergrad Degrees and I would be overqualified for whatever job I need to get to pay for my grad school.

...oh man, and I would still get my Math Minor, too! Aww man, that would be great, and I would save money....awesome.

"What are you thinking now?"

*smug-storm*

So my self esteem is like through-the-roof right now, but I need to study harder or I'm gonna be brought down to size in one day and it's gonna suck.

Idk how to deal with Hyewon. I want to see her asap to finalize and clear things up. If we will be together or not, we will know on that day.

Ok, now, this is just a joke, ok, so don't take this seriously. Today my roommates explained to me that the movies is like "the time" to determine if a girl here likes you or not, and it all has to do with the arm-rest. If she has her hand on the armrest between you, grab it. If she doesn't pull away, then you're good. If not, then you are just friends. lol. I know that's one of those ridiculous pick-ups that nobody in their right mind should ever pay any attention to, but it's funny anyway. lol, well, I'll be going to the movies soon, so no better time than to put this into practice, right? I guess I've got nothing to lose. lol, my roommates: "The first date to the movies. It's the most important time in every relationship."

I have a very loose grasp on the Statics right now, but it seems like I always get it down-pat like one class too late. ... Either way. There's only one homework problem due tomorrow, and it's my only class tomorrow, and it's in the evening, so I will have plenty of time.

I might be staying here for one more semester.

"What does it mean: 'take for granted'?"

So normally my mom is pretty ridiculous, but sometimes she says something that deserves attention.

I think it was this morning, I got a long email from my mom telling me the news which she has been working so hard at finding this entire time. Like, every contact I've had from mom has had some kind of BS in it about something Hyewon did or didn't do that made mom mad (and it's always something small, and something which, when I talk to mom about it, mom doesn't really care about and wouldn't be bothered by if it was anyone else.) In fact, on several occasions mom has apologized for so aggressively fault-finding with Hyewon, but she persists. Idk what I can take seriously from her anymore.

Anyway, mom says that Hyewon has been running around with guys in my absence. She even came home with flowers from some guy. That's not to say that I haven't gone on a date or two with a girl or two, so I've checked myself by now, but Idk what to think about it. I mean, I'm cool with her going on dates with some guys now, but comparing her track record with her current performance, I wonder if she will be a loyal girlfriend if she says "yes".

My knee jerk reaction was "If she's really a player, then nothing she says is reliable, and I should be more actively pursuing relationships with other girls." Then I decided that she deserves, at least, to be asked about it. I might have taken this more seriously if my mother wasn't crying wolf all the time. At any rate, with this news, now that I know she isn't waiting for me, I finally decided not to wait for her, and finally I won't be feeling guilty and trying to reason it into either good or bad conscience so it will stop or continue. I'll be going on dates with other girls and if things go well and I get a girlfriend, then Hyewon was too late. Actually, depending on how things go in the next week or so, if Hyewon comes back and says "yes" too soon, I might have to ask her to wait.

I just sent a frustrated response to that email to my mom.

On a lighter and somewhat ironic note. My date with 지혜 tonight was terrible. 지혜 is an awesome girl; extremely pretty, Christian, and definitely academically successful. However, she, like other Koreans I know, has a loose grasp on her limits. She didn't eat anything but a few apples today or yesterday, so she was really sick tonight. She was feeling dizzy, so we went to a pharmacy and picked up some something for her. Then we went to get some 새우측 (shrimp porridge... I might have spelled it wrong. it was delish') for dinner. The plan was, after that I'd get a haircut and then we'd see a movie, but she puked. I told her we aught to go back to the dorm if she was feeling bad, but she said no, so I got my haircut (which looks good, btw), and then she puked again so we went home. She said next time we'd see a movie. There weren't any good flicks in English tonight anyway lol.

"We're so serious."

Ok, I know I'm flip-flopping on this constantly, but girls again. Here's the thing. Plans have changed and now Hyewon won't be able to come to Korea until after November. So, depending on my schedule, I might not even get to see her. December is finals-month. I hinted heavily at her telling me what she was "going to tell me" and she asked a question which made me think that she could very possibly be leaning "no". The answer will probably come with her letter of acceptance or rejection from BYU. I just have to hope that BYU isn't one of those schools that doesn't send formal rejections (if she gets rejected. I'm confident in her, but there's always this chance.) Anyway, the point is, I'm still setting my deadline at the 22nd. I will be straightforward with her next time we Skype; saying something like "You don't have to say yes, but I need something concrete to hold on to if I am going to wait so long for you." I don't know if she will understand that, but it's worth a shot. I would have done it today when we talked, but she was so calm and kept her smile so well despite the stress and confusion which anyone in her position might naturally feel. I couldn't do it. I mean, I saw in her expression that she wasn't sure of things. Something in the back of my head imagines a reader saying "why the rush?".

Well, I have to be completely honest here. I had a really good time tonight with this one girl who will probably appear in my facebook pictures soon-ish. We've been hanging out a lot, and she is easily one of the prettiest girls I've ever seen. On top of that, she's powering through a double-major, and is a solid(afaik) Christian. We went to the beach today, and this Saturday we're going to the movies. No matter how hard I've tried (and this could be my flesh acting despite me, but) I can't seem to reason it into bad conscience to pursue this girl as long as I am single. If Hyewon refuses to tie me down, then I am untied. At least with Gabrielle, even though we never called it "boyfriend and girlfriend" (omg semantics) we agreed that we weren't dating other people.

Well, other than that. I'm feeling alright about midterms. I'm also feeling terrible about midterms. I'm listening to Ratatat right now. I think my favorite songs of theirs might be these:
Crips
Kennedy
Lex
Chery
My roommates are going to sleep. I should probably join them.

... it was really nice talking to Hyewon, though, as usual. I made her a mix-tape("tape" VERY loosely) and gave it to her today.

"ㅊㅋㅊㅋㅊㅋ"

Had a good talk with a friend today about my girl situation. He affirmed for me that I'm doing the right thing by dropping things with the other girls by reminding me that Hyewon is probably being loyal, so far. I mean, afaik she isn't running around with any other guys. Anyway, I'm glad I didn't let things progress with them. Nobody got hurt, and everything should work out for the best. If Hyewon says no, then I might have to start over building bridges, but that's ok. It's better to have a clear conscience.

I think this experience here has been really awesome for me. This is a perfect example of one of the many lessons I'm learning, and it makes me sad every time I remember that I have to go back to LeTourneau next semester....... not that LeTU is such a bad place, but it is definitely missing some of the best parts of this school. e.x: variety of people (as in cultures); free bus service to the nearest shopping center; on-campus store that actually sells useful stuff and snacks at very reasonable prices and stays open till eleven every weekday; a very active and available maintenance staff; and a wealth of cultural heritage just waiting to be discovered......

Actually, that brings me to another point. What culture does America have? The only things that really distinguish us are a severe lack of distinguishing characteristics and a few things which, when you stop and look at them, are really bad; for example, our general lack of respect for old people. I guess we have people from other cultures there, but the main ones are what.... Spanish, Black, and Native American. I know this sounds really bad of me, but whenever cultures come into conversations, Black and Native American people just complain a lot about how our ancestors were mean to their ancestors. Don't get me wrong, what happened really sucked, but all the people affected are dead, and the only reason anyone is still feeling it is because of their own inability to move on. And Spanish/Mexican people? They're pretty much everywhere, and it's impossible to find legitimate statistics for how many are here legally. Should we just make all of them legal at once? What will we do about future immigrants? Who knows? Our culture is exactly that: intolerance, rudeness, confusion, and old bruises.

Yesterday my roommates bothered me into going to bed a little early because I've been tired lately, so I didn't get to blog. Not much new happened yesterday. two of my roommates disapprove of my decision to keep waiting for the answer from Hyewon, but the other says "choose whichever girl is better". lol. I'm really curious to see what she'll say when she gets here. Speaking of which, I haven't talked to her in a while. I'm gonna try and make that happen again.

So my awesome roommate discovered my blog today. Oh well.....

It's super late right now. I really need to shave
and I need a haircut.

Trading shoulder massages with some of my roommates. That was awesome. I think this might become a regular occurrence.

Just got some stupid pics of the guy down the hall. Those are going on Facebook.

Tired tired tired tired tired.

"You're asking me?"

So my roommates are telling me that to have to wait this long for an answer from a girl means "no". I'm still kinda waiting, because she says she wants to tell me "something", but honestly, there are some (is an) incredibly gorgeous girls (girl) here who I am pretty sure I have a chance with. Makes me wonder about the importance of limiting your "rate of work out-put" in a relationship towards the beginning. I imagine the graph would look something like .5(x-1.25)^3+2(x-1.25)^2+.5(x-1.25) ... maybe wider. idk. I should go back to homework. I'll be back.

*** a few hours ***

Ok, so I was thinking about this some more, and I realized that if Hyewon says yes, then I have some security in that relationship. Hyewon is a good girl, and I know that she is up for the long distance thing. If she says no, it won't be fun, but it won't be the end of the world. I prayed for God's wisdom on the matter and I think he's told me that Hyewon is exactly what I'm looking for at the moment, and I should not be so quick to fall for the "devils traps"(I know, that sounds kinda dumb) when other girls come my way, even though we aren't "official" yet. It's a weird thing, not being "official", you know. I wasn't really sure how loyal I should be. Now, I am confident that the best decision would be to be absolutely loyal for as long as I am willing to wait for a response, and that I should set a reasonable time frame for it. I will see Hyewon on the weekend of the 22nd, and if I don't get an answer around that time then I guess I'll just have to call it over and move on. (and I guess the logical following is that if my plans fall through I'll have to wait longer....)

It's 2:00AM and I have Physics tomorrow (coffeeee~~). Idk if it's the test or not, but I can say right now I won't be up for it. However, my notes might just be the best in class ^^ We were told we could have one page of "cheat sheet" and I'm feeling really good about mine. On the other hand. Usually when I'm confident like this, I get put in my place. God-willing, my grade won't be too bad.

I have a Statics test on (I think) Tuesday, which I am only half-prepared for. I can handle some weird rod configurations, but I am having difficulty grasping the short-cut methods for solving trusses. (method of joints, method of sections, etc.)

I'm rather proud of my newfound understanding of the way batteries and capacitors work. I anticipate that with this, I might enjoy Physics a little bit more.

Oh well, I should really go to bed. Goodnight.

"We are the most funny roommates"

Hiking tomorrow from 6:15AM to 8:00PM. Then, if I can, I will go to watch my friend play clarinet. However, I will probably be eating dinner with my friend, Chowan. I feel really bad about things with her lately. I'm afraid that she might think I'm not paying attention to her or that she's not ever on my mind because I have just happened to be not-paying-attention-to-anything whenever she shows up. Like, she will be walking towards me waving her hands, and it's not till she's right next to me saying "Zac! Zac!" that I notice lol.. She's not the only one, either. And I have forgotten her name on occasion, and there are other things, too. I think she's a really cool girl, though. It's probably for the best. My girl problems are complicated enough as it is. The last thing I need is another pretty girl on my mind.

I realized today that I might have put Hyewon in a bad situation. I think that if she ever valued our friendship as just a friendship, then I probably ruined it by asking her to be my girlfriend, and of course she would take forever thinking about it. I mean, if she says no then it will be difficult to stay friends, but even if she says yes, maybe it's not what she really wants. That's a nasty doubtful road to go down anyways.
She wore her bangs down today when we talked.
I caught myself hitting on her more shamelessly on Skype today, which surprised me. I guess that when you think about something more, it begins to determine your actions. I had decided for myself, though that I wasn't going to do anything in the way of making advances (inasmuch as advances can be made) until I got an answer from her. TBH, I'm very curious how things will go, but if the next two weeks don't pass by quickly, someone's liable to get their feelings hurt. The "single until taken" attitude, which, even though I didn't feed into it entirely, was entirely a bad idea. I think, maybe, I just wanted to see if I could do it, and opportunity is scarce in Utah and in LeTU. Anyway, the semester is half way over. How much worse can it get? (*praying hands*) No more, though: right now I'm focusing on Damage Control.

"cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋdont forget to bring water bottle for hiking~i am mom caring ur packingㅋㅋ"

"Are you really going out there?"
"Yeah, but I might need a flashlight."
"Things are looking grim."
"She's so beautiful."
"What about her?"
"I found you a spider."
"You're a good friend."
"My eyes are the same as everyone else's."
"Really, it's fine."
"Sorry to say, you didn't make it this time."
"We could have been so perfect together. What happened?"
"You look deep in thought. Is everything ok?"
"Why do you keep showing up?"
"I don't know it. It's there every night though."
"It just kills me every time I read those words."
"You don't even know what you're saying"
"More ice cream?"
"Too short. I will text you when I'm simsimhae, you can text or call any time you want."
"I couldn't stop staring."
"That way."
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"The campus was flooded with muddy water...you ran so fast. I was left alone...I might have taken off my shoes, but I woke up."
"What? You want my shoes?"
"I suspected something at the time, but I've forgotten it now."
"Really, all I want is to see you again."
"Why is it always like that?"

Life feels so unfair sometimes, but we can't try to be a person who we aren't. Nothing good ever comes of that. God made us each a certain way, and if we are true to God and to that way, that's exactly the person who will come out on top of every situation.

ㅋㅋㅋㅋ justin bieber...

So, ever notice how no matter what you're doing, you do it better if you're not worried about who's watching? And you always seem to achieve your goal right when they stop looking.

I got the entire Death Cab for Cutie Discography in FLAC format recently. It's everything I hoped it would be.

Listening to Daft Punk now, though.

Talked to Hyewon today, and that was really nice. :) I think her best look is with her bangs down. Although, I was a little bit distracted during the first half of the conversation. I had some emails to send, and I was in the middle of a game of chess when she appeared online. I have been trying to get better at chess so I can actually compete against anyone. Right now, I am pretty evenly matched with level 4 out of 10 against the Windows 7 Chess Titans AI. It's improvement. Last week I was stuck at 3. lol. I'm curious why I always have to be the first one to turn my video chat on in our Skype conversations. ㅎ.ㅇ She's also always worrying about my family's feelings in weird situations, which is cool and all, but it makes me wonder about her worldview. It's probably cultural. Anyway, I really appreciate her confiding in me about that kind of stuff. I wouldn't want to be left out of the loop if she thought she was having issues with my fam.

My desk is a mess

I went out with the guys again tonight and I couldn't drink any beer. It was my first encounter since that last little bout, and the smell of it just made me nauseous and brought about the taste of vomit lingering in the back of my throat...

"Robot Rock (Soulwax Remix)" has some awesome breakdowns.

I might have found the perfect ice cream today. It's cheap and it tastes like coffee and has crunchy stuff on top (but it's the good crunchy, not the kind that sticks in your teeth like almonds and chestnuts), and it comes in a cone with hard chocolate on the bottom.ㅅㅅ

"No, guys, look. I'm touching the table right now."
"I wonder what would happen if we threw a dutch guy out this window."
"Please let me play with the banana."
"So, do you kill babies and kick puppies and worship the devil?"

Heh.... what am I getting myself into....... Take it slow, Zac.

Today I just hung out with Roger most of the day. He's pretty much my best friend on campus, I think. After that I went and ate cake with a friend or two who I met a while ago, but only just started hanging out with. Nothing but trouble.

Watched Akira this afternoon. Weird weird weird weird. It was really cool until the end. The end sucked.... also, the main chick looked more like a dude than the main dude.

Went to Handong Canyon again yesterday or maybe it was today, I can't tell this weekend.

"This is exactly what everyone wants"

Didn't do much of anything today or yesterday. I Skyped with Hyewon and the family yesterday, which was kindof nice. I got to talk to Dan, and I've been wanting that for a while. At the end of the conversation I felt like I didn't get to talk to Hyewon nearly as much as I wanted, but we were both busy and there are so many people in that house. Things will be better, I think, when she is here.

Went to Handong Canyon today. That was a nice hike, as usual.

Hung out with some friends. I should study a little, but Drew has the book.

Oh well. Tomorrow I plan to wake up a little bit earlier if I can, and study all day (Statics and Physics). I might do my Korean and my Creation/Evolution tonight. It usually only takes like 30 minutes for Cre/Evo, and maybe an hour for Korean.
Today was an awesome day.
