My Kiddies
Last fall, I decided I want to do something good with my life, so I signed up for a volunteer program my school had. It was according to the information, an opportunity for a large company such as ours, to give back to the less fortunate.

The Idiot's Guide to Learning Korean
Learning the Korean language is no easy task. And, if you never talk to native Koreans, then you'll never need it, as the only Koreans who will be willing to talk to you are the ones who can hold a conversation in English, most of the others will giggle and run away in shame. Still, it only helps when you know the language, and I think it is at least courteous to know something in the language of the country you live in. The only downside I can see is that you easily know all the bad things people say about you, but often you have to smile and pretend you do not. You can often find language exchange partners or sign up for a class, or if you are truly diligent, learn on your own. I can have some general conversation now, So lets start with the basics

Quick Weekend Getaway (Hong Kong and Macau)
I was getting a little bit stressed out by work in general, so my friend and I decided I needed a break.

I wanted to stay away from Singapore because it will eventually be on my south east Asia backpacking extravaganza.
