my life is AWESOME

i was just informed that i will be "working from home" for the next two months. i have to come into school for one week in February and submit about a semester's worth of lesson plans, but that's it. i'm already half-way done with that.
if you care about that AT ALL and/or are cognizant of what this implies in the context of the Korean educational system: i'm swearing you to secrecy! please, don't hate. that's the way that things roll, you know? sometimes you find a $100 bill on the ground and sometimes your friend does. sure, you might feel a little envious, but you wish them well and accept the pack of gum they buy you from the next convenience store you pass.

the idea of 8 weeks of freedom is a little overwhelming. what will i do with myself? unstructured time is not something i deal with very well. i'll need a project.

writingWRITINGwriting. certainly. i'm not sure what i'll write about... maybe restart my book? ugh. probably not. start a new one?

i'll be taking care of myself. sleeping a lot. eating right. cooking yummy food. oh! maybe i'll learn how to cook a new genre of food! Thai, maybe?


also, i'll definitely be working out everyday. Indonesia's in 4 weeks. i want to drop about 10 pounds, but i think i'll have to settle for about 5.

reading! (i've got about 5 unread books on my desk right now.)


categorizing my music! yikes! *so many gigs* AND!! find MORE music!

maybe i'll explore some part of Korea?!

snowboard?!

spend time with friends!

AHHHHH! LIFE IS GRAND!!!!!!!!!
