Some more pictures of recent times

                              Need to know how far you've gone at the grocery?

                              My one-on-one student brought Grandpa's Swiss Army knife to class the other day. It came in really handy for popping the ugly thing on my thumb.

                          Cutest letter ever from a kid.

                                          My little Jeong Yoon had a rough two days, since her mom was at the hospital giving birth to a little boy. She wanted to sleep in class, but was not successful, so instead she stayed by my side the whole time this past Wednesday.

                                They were pretty excited that the Ravens won as well.

                                               Little wild one here just wanted her picture taken too.

                                            I didn't realize BABY GAP was this cool

                                         Little one wanted her picture taken after the one above

                          So the little fella' on the right has a Felix the Cat sweatshirt, and once a week now, we watch re-runs of old Felix the Cat episodes on YouTube. The kids even wanted some Felix coloring pages as well.

Church Retreat

Last weekend  I joined some fellow church members for a little retreat in a coastal area known as Guryeongpo. It's near the big city of Pohang (not that big), which is known to some around the world, because of its steel industry. Friday night we drove all over the Daegu area first, to pick up a few folks that were working late. We arrived at the retreat complex around 10:40, and divided up the rooms between guys and girls. Then we joined together for a little discussion about the future of our church. The first part of the night was meant for planning some future events, and ways to reach out to incoming students at the university.

After discussions we ate some spicy chicken, which I rarely touch due to the oils which are used. I decided to feast, and my stomach made me aware of what I ate eventually on Saturday morning. After eating the chicken we played a Korean game known as "007 Bang!". It was pretty fun to be honest.
I'll add more later. . . . time for block center.


So in a small coastal town in Korea, on last Saturday morning what exactly was the breakfast menu??? Scrambled eggs with onions and tomatoes, along with some cajun home fries. Yeah, I prepared breakfast on Saturday morning, which I was pretty proud of. Sucked waking up early to do so, but I got my rest later in the day.

After that we went to the famous sun rise plaza. There's a picture of a big hand in the water. Well, that would be at the sunrise plaza. When we finished there, we went to Pohang, to visit the history museum of steel giant Posco. Posco is actually a company that Mr. Warren Buffet has some money in too.

After lunch we visited the Pohang Corvette Battle Ship. . . That was interesting, due in part to the display inside from the Cheonan Battle Ship, which was sunk via North Korean Torpedo a few years ago.

Then we moved on to one of my Korean favorites, known as Jukdo Market. If there are strange pictures of fish in the posts before, then you've seen Jukdo Market, for the most part. I think our Pastor was the only person awake on the way back to Daegu last Saturday, because I was even knocked out in the front seat. Usually I'm the only one awake with him, when we go on trips. It was a nice time that we had together on the trip though.
I even came home that late afternoon, went to a gym nearby, but really enjoyed the hot tub more than anything. My gym is pretty cheap, and you'd be shocked to think a person pays 40 bucks a month to work out at a place like that. It's not exactly the cleanest place around, so sometimes I visit other places instead.
