geoje island... from may

Meow Meow... I am slowly catching up with my photos.  There is so much to be done as the season turns and the rain starts to fall, steady and hard.  These photos are from May, and wow has time flown since then.  IT'S ALMOST JULY! 

My plans for this mid-summer:
Finish editing and post my photos. 
Update my Korea book files. 
Research grad school application requirements. 
Edit my portfolio files and make my portfolio. 
Get grad school paperwork together. 
Book our September vacation trip. For the moment we are going to Hong Kong, but our possibilities change almost daily.

Most of these are long term goals, mostly finish it all before we come home in late fall.  Here is my inspirational palette of the set, see flickr to view them all.

haircut 2

Getting a haircut in Korea is always fun because they don't speak English and we both have to act out what it is we are talking about.  Luckily I had Glen transfer a few words for me before I went, "trim and layer".  When I got there I thought she kept asking me if I wanted another perm, and I was like "no, no, cut, cut!" while making the scissors action with my fingers.  After about 10 minutes I figured out she was asking if she had permed my hair 2 months ago.  Then it all made sense.  The best apart: the haircuts are really cheap, about $8.50.  It's safe to say I'm not going to want to dish out $30 every time I want a good haircut when I come back to the states.  The photo below makes it look shorter than it really is.  I even had her thin it. It feels like I don't have any hair at all :). Being that I have the thickest hair known to mankind, after my mom, this is a great thing!

ship yard

On one of our holidays we went to a ship yard with Kang, Choi, and the kids.  They had a Korean battle ship that was made in the U.S. and a fossil museum with a huge gallery of real pearls.

Henry is Kang's 3rd son.  He just turned 1, which is actually 2 in Korea.  He gets his own album on flickr because he is so darn cute and I took many photos of just him learning how to walk.

Ps. I'm going to Seoul this weekend for a girls weekend with Becky. It's been so hot and mucky here I am going to get some summer dresses for work.

Andrew is very happy to finally get rid of me!
