I wanted to post the latest dance song o that I've been working on in Dance Class.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EUZdraLx04 ( YOUTUBE)
The song is from Lee Hyori called" Chitty Chitty Bang" .
It's a lot of fun, and some may even compare to be the like Korean version of Lady Gaga. I 'm not sure about that one yet..Lol.
Joining Dance Class in Korea has been a lot of fun, it's a KPOP (Korean Pop) Dance class, that starts at like 9:45pm and last for an one hour.
The class is great and I take it with two of my friends, in which we are the only foreigners so we are the special ones in the class.
We have about 13 people in our dance class...three of which are boys. We are sure one of the guys is gay but as for the other two, I go back and forth. You know Korean boys are girlier then American boys so its a little bit harder to pick out if they are Gay or not. But gay or not gay they are not the best dancers in the class. The only other person in our dance class who can keep up with our dance teacher is this 50 year old woman who tries to act like she is 20 years old. My friend Jess and I have dubbed her " Teacher's Pet" , because she is a huge stick up our dance teachers ass. She's always practicing and " showing off " her moves.
Now , about my dance teacher, she is an amazing dancer, not only can she can drop it like its hot, but she has these sick " techno moves". We're trying to figure out if she like every audition to be in a KPOP group here, but I think she would make it in the states as a backup dancer.
As for my own dance skills, they are okay...at first it was hard trying to keep up with them, but I think I've been getting better. Just because I'm Black does not mean I have all these awesome dance moves , it's definitely far from it. Lol

A little insight into the Korean War, and a little tiny peak of North Korea !
This blog deserves its own post, and it's about my trip to the " DMZ" ( Demilitarize zone). The
DMZ is the buffer zone between North and South Korea.
I went on this trip with a few of my friends through a company called" Adventure Korea". The trip was incredible and gave us a little insight into aftermath following the Korean War. During high school, I think we kinda of breezed through the Korean War,or maybe it just never stuck in my mind but after this trip , I became even more interested in learning about the Korean War.
Our trip first begun in Seoul and then we took a bus straight to the border,but before we went straight into the DMZ we stop at the city called Paju, which is located in South Korea, and it is known as the peace village. There you can see the Freedom Bridge, in which the tracks lead to North Korea. You can also see the prayers left by families who have been separated after the war.
Afterward we took a trip to the "3rd tunnel". It is a tunnel that was built from the North to the South in order to have a plan attack . So far four tunnels have been discovered but the government speculates that there are more tunnels. I have no pictures of the tunnel, because we were banned from taking pictures or even bringing the camera with us. All of our belongs had to be locked up. All I can say is that it was about a 300 meter climb to the bottom and then the ground leveled out and then we walked through a cave..til we reached a restricted barricade.
The next place we went to was the border..literally. We got to look out of a point to look into North Korea, but of course we could not see any people. The only thing we saw was a city...but it 's also known as " Propaganda City" aka, its just for show. I took pictures by the picture line, but the only thing I could get was a few mountains.
Our trip ended at Dorasan Station and its was the only station in the South that provided transportation from the North to the South, but since 2008 those borders have been closed.
At this location we all got stamps in our passport that say " From Dorasan Station to Pyeongyang", Pyeongyang is the capital of North Korea. I put the stamp...wayyy in the back of Passport though. I will post pictures later of that stamp. However here are a few pictures of Dorasan staion.
" Not the last station from the south, but the first station toward the North"
This trip was very interesting and it gave a little insight into the Korean War. I recommend anyone living in South Korea, to make a trip. I will say after this trip I have become more interested in reading up on the Korean War.

" Law School can wait one more year"...
It's been a long, very freaking long time since, I've last wrote on my blog.
What can I say ? I'm just not a good blogger ! Lol
The past four months in Korea have been amazing, and they have changed some of my future plans. The biggest decision that I've made was that I am no longer going to attend Law School this August. I didnt get into my dream school :( and I dont want to settle for a school that I don't really like. Therefore, I will be staying in Korea for 6 more lovely months. I realized that even if I did get into the law school of my choice then I would have still chosen to stay in Korea a little longer, and just defer my acceptance. 9 months ago when I first got here, if someone was to ask me ,if I would stay longer than a year, then I would have said " HELL NO" . But now I am so excited to stay a little longer.
Some of my friends and family members asked me , how I could possibly stay for 6 more months, because for them they cannot imagine Korea to be interesting. What they don't understand is that this is an incredible journey and adventure that I am on. I am learning so much about myself , another culture, and Im living an adventure. When I first signed up I would not expect to make such a good group of friends (Koreans and Foreigners) , have a kind and helpful school, a nice small city. I definitely had my ups and downs, in the beginning. Sometimes the staring can be too much or the obnoxious comments can make you upset. But you learn not to think so much about the bad because then it would overpower all the good that has happened . My students are great, and I love teaching them. They make my days happy or sometimes a little frustrating..but everything works out , when I go out for a drink with the teachers at my school.
It was good step that I made to stay here a little longer but , I do look forward to come for a few weeks during the summer. There are a ton of things about American that I have missed.
So since the last time I wrote on here, I was preparing to go to Thailand for 14 days. That trip wasng incredible. I did everything and more that I wanted to do......well except look at temples, except one. I rode an elephant , kayaking, snorkeling, and hiking, and had an over-all fun time. Even my 18 hour layover in China was not terrible. My friends and I got to get a 24 hr Visa to leave the airport, so we stayed at a nearby hotel. The hotel concierge told us his friend could drive us around to all the tourist spots for pictures for only 40 USD. Soo cheap ! The guy was really nice and spoke a little English but our friend Jing who is Chinese-American was able to talk to him so he didn't feel so awkward around lol. Our time was beautiful, the only thing that sucked was I sprained my ankle the second day...WTF! Other than me being a gimp for a few days, I did enjoy my 5USD foot massages and body massages for one full hour. I definitely recommend anyone to go to Thailand. So everything on this trip did work out. It was such an incredible trip that I will make another trip to Souteast Asia, maybe this winter to Vietnam.

5 months in Korea..WHAT ?!?!
So, its been awhile since I last posted a message, and I'm sorry for that. It's been very busy these past two months. So here is a quick update on things that happend in November and December. Well in November I had Thanksgving with a few of girlfriends at my friends apartment in Hwacheon. Hwacheon is very north of South Korea, and very close to North Korea. It's really cold, they get a ton of snow, but the scenary is beautiful. We had nice dinner in whch we made Chicken ( there was no where to fine Turkey) and a ton of other trimmings and sat down and ate a nice meal. I spent most of November in fog, just studying hard for my Lsat, which I took in December. I took it December 3rd, on a Sunday,and it was nauseating. I was extremely nervous, but I am that they are over with, I do not have the scores yet, but I am in the process of applying to Law School. Let me just say this, applying to law school overseas is a BITCH!!!!!!!
Well enough about November and December! Now its January. YAY, it will be five monthst that I have been here in Korea, and I cannot believe how the time has flyed. I have been a little homesick, because of the holidays that just past, but I am sure I will be ok because I am going to Thailand in two days for a much needed two week vacation. All I plan on doing is lying on the beach drinking margaritas, riding an Elephant( which I won't leave Thailand without doing) and going snorkeling. I will be going with three of friends here, Helen , Julia, and Jing, so we look forward towards this new adventure.
Also since school has been on winter vacation, I come to school still to teach a four hour English Winter Camp . I only have four students in the program, but its alot of fun. I have no co-teacher to help translate things, but with my very little Korean, and the students high beginners level of English we are able to understand each other pretty well. Our recent class project was to make a short movie clip. It was alot of fun making it . It is only a two min long clip but it took us two day to make. The only thing I did was the filming. The students edited the video and chose the songs for the video, of course with my help. Lol. Its really cute. The students got to choose a English topic that we had studied , and they chose " Where are you from", so each student representes a different country, except for one student who is an alien. We did it in Korean and English. It's really cute and funny !! I hope you enjoy it.
I promise I will post again with my updated trip from Thailand. THANKS FOR READING!!!

Halloween.................in Korea
This past weekend was Halloween, and I honestly didn't think that I would celebrate it in Korea. My co-teachers had mention to me how the students know about Halloween, therefore, they would be expecting me to dress up sooo I called my mother up and asked her to mail me my Halloween costume from my freshmen year at Bonas. But she took it upon herself to donate that $50 cosutme. I only wore it once, and I had the intention of wearing it again, like now in Korea. So I went online and orderd a new costume off of Ebay , and it was another witch costume. I didn't expect my school to care that much about Halloween. All I planned to do was talk about Halloween in my classes and give out candy and then for my after-school class I would look for Coraline or The Nightmare Before Christmas to watch with them. Well the principal had another idea, he decided that he wanted to have this Halloween celebration for two days with the 4th through 6th graders. So the school gave my co-teachers and I 500,000 Won which is the equivalent to like $450. We went shopping the next day and we were able to find some Halloween decorations, and the rest of the decorations we created on our own. We decorated the whole English center with pumpkins, and skeltons, and tons of Halloween stuff. The classrooms in the English Center, which has four different rooms would be used for the students to rotate to the Game, Activity, Story, and Song Room.
My room was the " Story Zone" so I created a short powerpoint presentation about Halloween and I prepard to show the first four mins of " The Nightmare Before Christmas" because they sing " This is Halloween" . My co-teacher found the " The Nightmare Before Christmas" with Korean subtitle , on this popular Korean website. So the school's computer tech burned to a disc for me.
The day of the Halloween celeberation, I was shocked to see that almost every student wore a costume and created ' Trick or Treat " Bags. It was great !!!!! I never cared too much about Halloween when I was in America, but for some reason while in Korea, I started to care a whole lot about it ,and I was starting to miss celebrating it at home. Later that day after the tenth group , I was starting to get sick of the " This is Halloween" song. It was a great day and the students loved it.
Day 2 of the Halloween celebration was a lot of fun because I wore my costume to school, and all the students were FREAKING out!!! I was the only teacher who got dressed up, I tried to convince my co-teachers to dress up but they refused. So I wore my costume and proceeded to do another day of showing my powerpoint presentation and showing " The Nightmare Before Christmas". This day was more fun because the all the students were very excited and into the movie. They really enjoyed the song, " This is Halloween" . This day was shorter and I was finally exhausted, but I was so happy that my school embraced the halloween celebration with so much passion. I think the only reason they wanted a Native speaker was so they had an excuse to celebrate Halloween. lol
That night after all of the Halloween celebration at my school, I went to an opera with a few of my friends to see " Carmen" . The last time time I saw Carmen, was on a PBS special when I was 11, and it was with Dorthy Dandridge. I assumed that the play was going to be in Korean, but it was French, with Korean and English Subtitles, and the singing and acting , was very nice. It was worht the $30 to go see it.
HALLOWEEN DAY...........I decided to make the trip to Seoul with a couple of my freinds to go out to a club and celebrate Halloween with other foreigners.
We spent most of the day shopping with the intentions of going to the club later, but we became very tired and instead went out for dinner. After dinner we decided to relax in our motel room and then maybe go out for a drinks. So later that night even though we didnt really want to, we decided we would just go to a bar and have some drinks and then call it a night, ( how lame of us ), so we went to the W.A (western style bar) and as usally we were the only foreigners lol. We stayed there for while and had two pitchers of beer and some snacks. We were so tired we decided to call it a night and head back home to go to sleep, however that changed because on our way back we noticed that the malls were opend til 6am, and it was only 12am. SOOOO we first decided to go into one store, so we could look at some of their shoes, but then that turned into 5 hours of shopping. It was great because I was able to find the boots that I wanted, and everyone else was able to buy something that they had wanted as well. After that we decided to FINALLY go back to our motels. And then the next morning I took the train back home $200 poorer, lol.
This past Halloween weekend was better then I had expected it to be, and I am so glad it turned out to be a lot of fun BUT it really made me miss Halloween in America so next year when Im back home I will be sure to really get into the spirit.

Birthdayyy Celebration in Daegu!!!!!!!
I am finally 22 , and the most exciting thing is that I was able to celebrate it with my new friends that I have met here in Korea. We took a trip to a city called Daegu , I believe it is the third largest city in Korea. We stayed with my friend Vincent, who was kind enough to let all 11 of us stay in his tiny tiny apt. But it turns out that I did not stay there, which I will talk about later.
So the Birthday celebration began Friday, Oct. 16, and we went out for dinner . We were able to find one place that would seat like 11 foreigners. The meal was great and then the DRANKING began. We went to this club called the " GoGo Club", and it was cool because we got our cocktails in a zip-loc bag. It was delicious! I had gin and tonic. Also if you wanted your drink to be stronger, then the bartender would make it extra strong for you, FOR FREE!!! YUMMYY ( I made you proud Cindy)
After we drank our zip-loc bags of cockatils, they told us to go to the new club that they opened up and we would get free beers. So, as the smart drunks that we were we went to go get some more free beer. The " GoGo Club" was fun, the bartenders were cute and really cool. We drank some more , played pool, and talked. Since I was feeling really good, I decided to buy myself a " JagerBomb". ( JagerBomb, JagerBomb JagerBomb). They were very cheap too! They were only 5,000wons so the equivalent to $3 USD. So cheap so , I bought FOUR~
After the " GoGo Club" we decided to move the fun to a new club, " G-2CLUB" This club was very cool, and we got more free drinks, well only 1 . The club was 98% Koreans. They played a lot of American Hip-Hop/Rap music and Korean Pop ( KPOP) music. Those Koreans, can party.We were able to push ourselves to the front of the club and then jumped on stages. It was great ! We danced for basically five hours, and by the time 5am came around, I thought the club would be closing but, no, more and more Koreans were coming to the club but we decided to call it a night and leave. I decided since Vincent place was soo small , that I would stay at a JiJim Bang ( Public Bathouse/Sauna/Spa) with two of my friends. It was very uncomfortable, the " pillows" were rock hard.
The next morning, I woke up with everything hurting, I was so sore from the night before, that I didn't think I could repeat the same night again. But I decided I would be a trooper and try to party again for the second night in the row. We spent most of the day shopping, or just walking around and looking around. We went to a bookstore, in which this lady asked me if I was " American or Indonesian" which took me by surprised, I mean usually people ask if I'm American or African, so being asked if I was Indonesian was a bit of a surprised. Anyway , at the bookstore I found a new book from Mitch Alboum, so I closed my eyes and bought it, because it was fucking expensive !!!
Later that night, we decided to go back to the " Gogo Club" but after about an hour more than half of our group decided they just could not last for the rest of the night so the went home. The rest of us went to a hookah bar, and smoked and had a drink, then we tried to go back out and drink some more, which we did, but we were soo tired and sore from the previous night that we ended up calling it a night too. But we decided to go back to the JiJim Bang, because while sleeping would not be comfortable, we knew in the morning going to the spa would be well worth it.
The next day we left Daegu to go home although I was sad that my birthday celebration was over, it was nice to go back home to relax !!!!!!
However , my birthday celebration was not over , like I thought it was, my co-workers suprised me at work by throwing me a party!!!!! They made me a huge banner that said, " Happy Birthday '! I was soo excited and they bought me a cake and my co-teacher bought me a beautiful scarf!!! Later they took me out for duck which was delicious, and they came over to my apartment and we had drinks !!!!!
Even though last years 21st birthday celebration at Bonas was awesome, it was nice that I was still able to enjoy my 22nd birthday in a foreign country.....
