The ideal place for me is the one in which it is most natural to live as a foreigner.

At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since.

I had plans to get off my lazy ass and do things today but I'll just do them on Wednesday. Maybe I'll go to Sinchon before I go to work.

Due to the content and comments on this post, I feel compelled to make an entry about my thoughts on rights in South Korea, about how it's like a third world country. I get so angry about it because with most of the foreigners I associate with, they don't see it like I do. I don't need them to see it my way, but to recognize that these things happen. They always say something like "No, Leah, I don't think it's that bad," when actually, yes, it is. The economic prowess of this country is a façade for their social failures.

Let me also preface this by saying as a Westerner I am also aware that my country is not the paragon of moral, social, and political correctness. Awful things happen in my country, too, but I don't condone it there either. I feel, though, as a foreigner, that I have the unique opportunity of viewing this country as an outsider and insider. Close enough to the fire to feel the heat but not to get burned, if that makes sense. What I'm trying to do here is understand. Understanding is the first step to improving. Perhaps if everyone can think critically of their own society, and of others if they so have the opportunity, then we can be compelled into action.

It is ridiculously cold outside I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I WENT OUT TO BEGIN WITH OKAY. One of the bars we went to, their heater was broken so they gave us blankets. It was cute. Now I'm curled up in my electric blanket set on the highest setting. Terrible.

Oh yeah, and I got hit by a car but not seriously. I mean seriously enough that if Lou wasn't there I would've fallen on the ground. I glared at that driver hardcore.
