Somebody stole my... WHAT?!?

Okay, so I was in the subway. It was the same night I saw that dude spitting near the pay phones (see previous post). I was waiting to meet 김누리 Kim Nuri, so I stopped at a little grocery store attached to the subway - nearby. I bought a few cans of coke and pepsi - and a loaf of bread. When Nuri arrive, we were browsing some of the shops and I left my "bag of groceries" on a large metal freezer-type-of-thing.

I kid you not... it was out of my sight for TEN minutes - and when we came back? It was GONE! WOW! I was SO surprised! When we went to a shop, Nuri said "Chris! You left your back!" And I said, "No big deal. It only has bread nad some pop in it. Who would take that?" Well... SOMEBODY did take it! Crazy. I hope they were REALLY hungry and thirsty! I hope it was worth it. WOW. If somebody wanted that stuff so badly, I would just give it to them. No need to steal that.

Anyway - I didn't care... I was just shocked. Here's a picture of where I left my bag.

In the Subway - something gross

So I was standing in the subway and I saw this guy leaning up against the wall, facing it, with his head against his arms. He was making a loud hocking noise and spitting some NASTY right on the floor between the pay phones! It was so gross... I can't believe he was doing it right there like that!

This is where he was standing.



Here's a picture of the junk he was spitting. Pretty sick, huh? :) I thought you'd like to see!

GaHyun

I met GaHyun because she goes to my church and she also goes to the same University that Ellie goes to... and she's in the YWAM group... and she speaks English very well. So we're friends.



On this day, we played in the water after church and had a picnic. Sujin was there, too. She took the picture. It was fun :) Below, Sujin really wanted to take another picture of me jumping. She's surprisingly good at it... like some kind of bizzare talent. So - there I am.

One of my August classes

Here's a class I had in August. Aren't they cute? haha - we had fun. This picture was taken after the last class. I just thought you'd like to see what one of my classes looked like. Depending on the time of day - they look differently. These students all happen to be University students, but it's not always the case.

October is here!

It's here! It's here! My FAVORITE month! YESSSSSSSSSS

Oh I love this weather so much! It's probably thanks to my dad - for taking us camping every Fall season to "The Fall Campout" where we would drive up to Wisconsin and camp in Dundee near an awesome hill. We would always do cool things - definitely some of the BEST memories of my childhood. It started when my dad and his old high school friends decided they would all meet every Fall and camp together with their families.

We had a Chili dump - where we would make a famous food called "chili". Each family would make a pot of chili (which is like a stew with tomatoes and ground beef and peppers and a few veggies and whatever else you decide to put in) - and they would make enough for their own family members. Then all of the families would come together and dump the chili into one big pot - so you never know what you'll get! My dad loves to make HOT chili, but I remember that year, dad made OUR family's chili EXTRA hot to compensate for everyone elses chili which he knew wouldn't be hot! :)

Another time, my dad's friend Pete brought some hatchets and a wooden throwing board. We would take about 12 paces from the board and throw the hatchet at a target - such as a playing card. The goal was to cut the card in half.

At night, we would get glow sticks and climb the hill - but we always waited until it was really dark. Somebody always ended up breaking open their glow stick and dumping it everywhere to make random things glow.



Anyway - in Korea, I'm happy October is here. Tonight... perhaps I'll smoke a cigar.
