Present Perfect Thoughts

After more than a year. I've come to think of writing again here in my blog. My work in school and my baby, Chloe, keep me busy 24/7. It's quite a very hard work, being a teacher, mother and a wife... a daughter in-law, a friend... a family... in different times.

How I miss my singlehood! Where I have all the pleasures of being young! But this doesn't mean I hate my life right now. No, no..no. It's just that there will always come to a point in our lives that one would always think of some good things that happened in the past.

I miss surely my freedom. Late movie watching with friends, bar hopping, eating out... bowling, coffee shop with girlfriends, shopping in SM, texting and some thought of ...... ooopppps!

But here's the catch: If I'm gonna live my life again, I'd still choose my life right now even if things are not as easy as they are right now.

Keeping Right

Have you ever experienced walking on the right side of a sidewalk when suddenly a rushing Korean run into your direction, literally? If you won't give way, you'll just hear that someone muttering something under his breath. Or have you ever had these cases like you were doing " patintero "(pah-tin-teh-roh) with the other person when you are walking? I find this behavior very bothering (sometimes odd and funny) especially when I use the stairways in the subway. Some subway stations have escalors going up installed at the left (e.g. Deokcheon Station). What is surprising is that they even have this sign: I told this to Tommy a few days ago and I just found out from him that they learn walking at the left side of the road in their elementary days. They even have this song that goes lilke this: "People keep to the left and cars to the right. Let's cross the street after looking right and left." So, it must be because of an old convention of walking on the le...

Samsung's AMOLED

Yup. I have a new phone and this is because of Chloe. She knocked out my phone so hard on the bathroom floor that made the monitor useless for two whole days! I went to a near Anycall service center and actually planned to repair it but they said that I had to pay for around 25,000won for a part replacement, I just thought of buying a new one since there are a lot of free phones nowadays and I had used my phone for more than two years. To pay 25k for an old, really full of scratches phone (because of Chloe) is too much for me since sooner or later I also need to replace it. In the end, it turned out not to be a free phone(850,000 won / $690). Tommy bought this phone for me saying that I need a "much, much better phone" because of his daughter...hahaha! and because I've been always using free phones since I came here in Korea (which are NOT really FREE PHONES because of the additional services included in the phone bill for the first few months). So, I resulted picking thi...
