Well, I learned my nickname among some of my students. "The Drinking Hippo." Yep... You heard it right! They are calling me a hippo. The drinking part comes from my constantly bringing water bottles to class, but the hippo part, there is no nice way to interpret that. They are calling me fat. I don't really see the justification, but I guess it only gives me more motivation to keep up the workouts.
The cute boy came back into town. We went out last night and had a great time. But, I think I'm starting to get bored. After all, one whole month with the same person... I really shouldn't get bored so easily. This is not good.
I've been learning new phrases from my Korean friends, "I like you." "I love you." "You're welcome." and "I miss you." The only problem is that once I learn a new phrase, the phrase keeps playing over and over in my mind. It's like a broken record and I want to say the phrase to everyone. So, yesterday I was running around saying "I love you. You're welcome" to just about everyone I met. I'm such a show off.
Hillary is a goner. I know this isn't news. But, we are going to have a Dem nominee before the week is through. Can you believe it? I was talking about it at dinner with some Europeans and I got so excited that I got goosebumps. They thought I was ridiculous, but I couldn't help myself.
I may never own a car again. I love not having one. No car payment. No car insurance. No gas. No parking. No maintenance. If I move back to the States or to Europe, I want to live in a big city and then I'll just car-share. It is about 1/3 the cost of owning a car and so easy! However, if I do ever buy a car... Mini Cooper all the way!
This summer is MY summer for movies. The movie line-up couldn't be better.
Indiana Jones.
The X-Files.
Sex and the City.
Penelope.
Batman.
Get Smart.
Finally, go listen to American Girl by the Goo Goo Dolls. The song is monopolizing my ipod.
