A "Meating" With the Husteds






Tonight for dinner, the Husteds and I went to our favorite neighborhood all-you-can-eat grill house for what Jonah coined a "meating" (haha, get it?).  I hadn't been there since my birthday (what a crime!), so I was long overdue for a marinated beef feast.

Post "meating", we retired to the Husted's for an episode of Pushing Daisies (what a fantastic show!) and some banana pudding.  What a great end to a completely relaxing day.

This week is going to be super chill - I teach (read: watch School of Rock) just three third grade classes since the first and second graders have their finals this week and the third graders have a special program on Thursday.  That also means that I don't have school on Monday or Thursday.  The school year is winding down and I'm left wondering where the time has gone...

I've been listening to Boyce Avenue all day.  Love that man's voice and mellow acoustic take on otherwise guilty pleasure pop songs.  I'm especially a fan of Cover Collaborations Vol. 1 in which he sings his signature cover songs, but as duets with some other similarly sweet sounding friends.  Check him out.  You won't be sorry :)

Also, I had a weird epiphany tonight as I left my apartment to meet the Husteds.  When I'm in my apartment or with other foreigners, I kind of forget that I live in Korea.  Since I spent the whole day in my own little world, watching American television, listening to American music, etc., the moment I stepped onto the street tonight, it kind of hit me that (HOLY COW!) I live in Korea.  You'd think after over a year of this lifestyle, I'd be used to it, but almost daily, I get a glorious reminder of what my life entails and I'd be lying if I said it wasn't refreshing.
