I’m having a less-than mediocre day. My nose is stuffed, causing intense sinus pressure. I’ve been sick very often this year! I never was one to be sick! I had perfect attendance almost every year in school (6-12). No flu or virus was strong enough to tame me, but it […]
In my ventures to avoid dairy at all costs, I have found myself at an odd spot. How do I know when a food has dairy in it? In something like iced coffee, the presence of milk is pretty evident. I first thought that it was only milk in cold, liquid form […]
Thanksgiving. It seems odd that lately people have been calling it “Turkey day” instead of Thanksgiving. I don’t know if it’s because people of other ethnicities who don’t celebrate Thanksgiving find it offensive (!) but I think it’s because people are just too darn lazy to form the three syllables: Thanks-Gi-ving.

I called my co-worker minutes ago, about his day at work. Of course, I wasn’t there, since it is my day off from work for school. It was another disasterous day, which only makes me sick to the stomach about returning to work tomorrow. WLNP has taken a toll on cell-phoners! […]
My mom makes the most fantastic food, be it Korean, American, Hamburger Helper… Recently I had the pleasure of eating mandoo, which is what you gringos call “dumplings.” Mandoo, (or as my best friend’s boyfriend calls’em, Man-dude — he was a white farm boy) is a wonderful potpourri of food meshed and mixed together […]
There is something about listening to Christmas songs that makes my eyes well up with tears. I guess it is what one calls nostalgia, but nostalgia about what?
I watched the American Idol Christmas. Kelly Clarkson and Clay Aiken and the rest of them. They are all brilliant performers, and as they do […]
My biggest foes in literature — Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude has gained a partner. Mr GM has written another book with similar magic realism, titled Living to Tell the Tale. I really do wish that I had emerged triumphant over OHYOS — I would have definitely gone on to […]
As you may know, WLNP — Wireless Landline Number Portability which is also known simply as number portability has gone into effect today. Since I work in the cell phone biz, you can just imagine what kind of day I may have had. Well, it was 45,687,935,867,654 times worse! It was […]
If the Korean is still broken, try clicking “View” at the top of the browser, and then select “Encoding” and then select “Korean.” Maybe it can fix something.
I think the Korean showed up! I have also fixed the Korean contents in my alcoholic beverage blog entry on November 19, 2003.
