- I brought 120+ pounds of luggage. So, what did I forget? Toilet paper. I realized this with about 4 airplane meals working through my system at 11pm last night.
- After 18 hoursd in the air and a two hour bus ride, all I really wanted last night was a good shower. That said, I have not been able to figure out the hot water in my apartment. So I have had two cold showers and one cold shave. Great start!
- The students all seem to be very entertained by the mere sight of me. I was just introduced to a fourth grade class and was asked three questions: Did you go to Harvard? How old are you? and, where did you go to school?
- I also encountered a group of six graders who immediately erupted into screaming questions and remarks at me in both Korean and English. At least I know they will be enthusiastic students.
Thats all for me. More to come...

Hot is usually represented by the color red. You must be towering over these short asain kids. Your an American Godzilla to them probably. Whats the place like? on another note, I'm watching a standup of Dl Hughley and absolutley nothing is familar. hmm bentley college!
I wish you can figure out how to use the hot water, at latest, until Christmas. Winter in Korea is not colder than Boston but could be below than 20F at night. It wouldn't be happy experience for you to take cold shower in the Christmas morning.
Everything should be fine with you in Korea. I'll be glad if I can help something.
