Changes

It's been a little over one year since Carolyn and I left the comfort of home for an exciting (and sometimes not so exciting) new job and life in Korea. In the 365 days that make up a year, we've seen a bit of East Asia and Southeast Asia and we're starting another year long contract here, and that means changes. Press play on the video clip below and keep reading to the soothing sounds of Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young.

One of the biggest, and definitely the saddest change, is that even though we've decided to stay for another year, our good friend BritBrit has decided that it's time to go back to school and become a teacher in Canada. Brittany will be a great teacher and we definitely wish her all the best. We're also quite jealous because she's going to be traveling through Southeast Asia for the next few months...and India...and the middle east. She's been Carolyn's closest friend here in Korea and had a big part in the engagement ring buying process and will hopefully be one of our close friends for a long, long time.

Carolyn's had to move to a new school, and so far it seems like a really positive move. Of course I get all of my information about her work from her, so I guess that's first hand. It's too early to tell, but so far it seems like there's a lot more upside than downside.

For me it seems to be mostly the same. We'll have a new principal, so that could mean some pretty big changes to my desk warming schedule and dress code, but my fingers are crossed that it won't be unmanageable.

In culinary news, we had yeongnyeom galbi, jjimdak, and kal-guk-su this weekend. Yummo.
