I have nothing to say, but I feel like I need to get over my 500-post threshold today, so... I've finally started watching Bojack Horseman, and it's become my guilty pleasure. I try to listen to it while working at my desk but I find myself not working as proficiently because I keep looking over my shoulder to make sure no one can see what I'm watching. It would be too hard explaining this show here.

It would be too hard explaining this show here.That show is a wild ride and yes, it's true what they say. If you didn't like the first few episodes, they get really amazing in episode 5 or 6. It's well worth watching through the unevenness of the first lot. Amazing show and I'm going to be Bojack for Halloween. My GF will be Todd. hahaha
I planned to do lesson planning today too... but I also decided not to take a nap at work, and I can't get away with not eating all day without a nap.so I'm just sitting here starving and impatiently waiting for the end of the day.
So I just discovered that Emart has started selling Post Oreo O's cereal, and I bought a box to relive my childhood and stuff, and it tastes much better than I remember. I haven't decided if that's because my tastebuds have regressed or if Post has improved the recipe since the last time I've eaten Oreo O's. I'm thinking it's the latter because Oreo O's now has marshmallows in it and it didn't back in the day, and I gotta say that I'm okay with that.
A student came to me during lunch yesterday with something like 40 pages to edit from their book writing club. Tries telling me she needs it by the end of the day and, while I appreciate the fact that she thinks the dumb foreigner can pull that off, uhhh how about no? That said, I'd gotten through half of it by the time she came to retrieve it.She's coming by for the rest of it at lunch today.

Reminds me of a roommate in college who asked me to proofread a 10 page paper. When was it due? In less than an hour. Shot that down. I hope she doesn't do that again. It's just inconsiderate
Ahh. Well at least she wasn't a jerk about it then. Maybe you can nicely tell her that [next time] more time to edit it would be better? If she's a sweet kid she may understand. She may honestly not have realized what a time commitment that would have been. Kids sometimes don't realize people aren't magic. My roommate, on the other hand, was of adult age and clearly should have known better.
@ HaLo3: I actually like candy corn, too, but I can only eat a little at a time and, despite my fondness for them, I'm still horrified by all of its little incarnations... which I can't help but to try every single one of them. I can't resist myself. It could be candy corn flavored broccoli, and I would still try it.
I swear, bathroom privacy here in Korea is non-existent.
At work, I'm in the bathroom stall, doing my business.I hear foot steps approach, getting closer to the bathroom. I'm thinking "okay, whatever. Someone else is here in the bathroom."I hear the footsteps right outside my stall door (mind you, there's 2 other stalls available with wide open doors).The guy has the audacity to knock. I don't say anything because, what the hell. The door is closed, of course this stall is occupied.3 seconds later, another few knocks and this guy tries to open the stall door. I reply "uhh... Hello? "He walks away.It was the principal. What the hell. I swear, bathroom privacy here in Korea is non-existent.
