I have a massive picture post coming soon. I'm getting internet on my laptop next week (finally!), so I'll be able to hook you all up with some beautiful pictures of Busan, maybe some pictures of my trip to Japan, and definitely a few pictures of my crazy cute kids. I know you can hardly wait.
I think I'm a little bit homesick these days. I'm not feeling it too hardcore, but I'm starting to get a little bored with the weekend scene here. It consists of alcohol, alcohol, and more alcohol. I don't mind going out for drinks every now and then, but everyone here goes out every Friday, Saturday, and sometimes Sunday. I'm not kidding when I say most people my age here live in a constant state of drunkeness and hangovers. I've never been much of a partier, so I usually just stay home and watch movies on the weekends. It's starting to get old and it makes me miss Nashville all the more.
I'm PMSing right now so I think I'm a little more emotional than usual. Besides my recent bout of homesickness, I've been crying over the most ridiculous things the last few days. I started yoga last week and discovered (not surprisingly) that I'm not flexible... at all. My instuctor had no qualms about telling me that I looked ridiculous during class (which I was well aware of, as I was placed right next to a huge mirror) and her comments definitely rubbed me the wrong way. I burst into tears on my walk home simply because I'm not good at yoga (did I mention that I'm a beginner?).
I started reading Oliver Twist (Dickens) last week. I didn't even make it through the first chapter without puddling up. Poor little Oliver. I read the second and third chapters and had to put the book down before it threw me into a state of hopeless depression. The world is so unjust and I'm so emotional right now. Bad combination.
I can't wait until this stage of the month is over. I love being a woman, but I could do without this aspect of womanhood.
