Just a few quick notes

I had a blast on a field trip today, and bought some awesome stuff. I went and saw The Hunger Games, which was a fantabulous movie that I want to see again. I made it into a certain list to go to a certain place, and now have a ton of extra training to get done before next Thusday. I am super duper busy this weekend and I really don't like being busy.

And I saw The Hunger Games. Did I tell you that already? It was AWESOME. I want to buy it now.

Greatest Comeback Ever

You all know I'm totally head over heels for Korean culture, especially the music and the dramas. If you know me well enough, you can probably imagine how crazy excited I get over new music videos being released from my favorite artist (because they churn out way more than American singers do). Well, a K-Pop legend, Shinhwa (which actually means legend or myth in Korean) just came out with a fantastic new music video that I'm head over heels for.

What's so special about Shinhwa, you ask? Well, I'll tell you. They have been together as a group, unchanged, for 14 years. And they just made their comeback this week after a 4 year hiatus. Now, I didn't even know K-Pop existed 4 years ago, but I've read so much about them, and listened to my favorite Korean singers all say they look up to Shinhwa, and h.o.t., and other legendary bands that started the K-Pop wave, so I was absolutely ecstatic to get the chance to be around when they had their come back. Take a look here and see the awesomeness of Shinhwa!

It's like they never broke up

One of my top favorite Korean boy bands, TVXQ, has been split apart for a few years now. I discovered them a short while after they had split and just as the two remaining members in the group came out with their new video. At first, I didn't know they were broken up, at least until I realized that there were only two in the new video and went to look up why. I was very upset when I did find out, because this group, which debuted in 2003, is an amazing group.

Anyway, even though they have been broken up for a while, they have some many music videos out there, whenever I find a new one it's like they never actually broke up, because I get to watch a brand new (to me) video of all five together. It makes me giggle and happy inside, then makes me wish they were getting back together again, even though I know that's probably not ever going to happen.

If you don't know who TVXQ is, first take a look here, then head over to Youtube and look them up. They are amazing.

10 Months

It's been 10 months today since I joined the military. It's been a long road, and a much longer road is ahead of me still. What an adventure, though!

Quick Break from Blah

I've got some pictures I want to share with you real quick. I'm procrastinating doing my homework and studying like a bad girl, but I really needed a break. So, here are four pictures I pulled from my phone that I think you all will enjoy seeing.

#1 - (Anyone who guesses what it means gets super brownie points) I recently bought this customized shirt from an airbrush tee shirt booth on the Boardwalk in Santa Cruz. I was so giddy when I got it. It made me happy. ^-^


I am Super Girl! I mean... Look at my cool new tee shirt! What a cluttered desk behind me. I wonder whose desk it is?

#2 - I snuck this picture with my iPod during a break one day in class, when two of my classmates were catching a quick nap, because they were both so exhausted. I hope they don't see this because they might kill me. They are (gruff voice) buff Marines who don't look cute, they look deadly (end gruff voice). I couldn't help myself though, I had to take a picture. They looked just so adorable together like that! The three Marines in my class truly are like real brothers (fighting and horseplay included)

Oh, Noh Kyeong Cheol and Moon Seong Hoon, the adorable but deadly Marines.

#3 - I snapped this picture last weekend at the singles cooking activity. These are the dishes my group made. It's pasta and chicken with pine nuts and peas, and a lemon and mustard sauce. It was really yummy!

Dish entitled 'I Pine for Lemon', garnished with lemon curls and parsley. Mmm, so yummy!

#4 - I just took this picture today, but I've been meaning to take it for a while. I have a lot of shoes, but what I always thought was funny about my shoes is all of them are from completely different clothing styles. And I wear them all, they don't just sit in my closet collecting dust. So I finally put them all together and took a pretty picture.

If I punch someone this week, you'll know why

I wanted to start blogging more regularly next week, as I know that talking about things helps me feel better. However, due to the completely INSANE homework load we were given for next week, I won't be getting anything done other than homework. No exaggeration. At the end of the week I'll let you know how many dozens of hours I spent on homework over the week. It won't be pretty, I'll tell you that right now.

I don't we've ever had a homework load anywhere close to this large before... Prayers and mail will be craved.
