5 Things that I like about USA

Image
As you might know, I have live in 3 different countries so far, Korea, China, and now USA. I would like to talk about the good things about living in the USA. 1. There are so many different sweets! I love sweets. My husband sometimes literally has to stop me from eating this sweets. I might be addicted to them. Not good.... :( Anyway, I love living here since there are so many different cookies, chocolates, cakes, candies, and they are really cheap compared to Korea or China. Chocolate was just ridiculously expensive in China and they only had one brand, Dove. We have so many different kinds here. I am loving it! lol. 2. Drivers are kind. I don't know if they are ever so busy enough to go before pedestrians. They never go before us! They always let us pass first and go. I hardly hear any cars honk at other cars here. Maybe, that is happening because I am living in the country. But, still, drivers are nice.  3. People say hi to each other when they have an eye contact. Again, it mig...

How to become a ESL teacher in Korea, China

I was an english teacher when I was in Korea and China. Many people ask me how they can go and teach English in Korea. Well... It is not that hard. First of all, you need to have a bachelor's degree on any major. However, if you want to get a really good job like teaching in a university or a foreign language school, you might need to have a degree on English or Education or Tesol, or even a master's degree. With a bachelor's degree, you can only find a job in a college in the country. So.. If you want to  be a teacher in Korea, you need to have a degree. To get a job, you can visit Dave's ESL Cafe. This is the best site where you can find Korea, China, Japan ESL jobs. Check the website. www.eslcafe.com If you find a good job there, you can apply for the job and have an interview and hopefully get the job and fly to Asia!! Since I worked in Korea and China, I can tell you some of the pros and cons in Korea and China. If you want to go to China, you need to know that you...

Went to Table Rock in Wyoming

Image
We went hiking on Table Mountain in Wyoming. James carried Yuri in his front and a heavy backpack in his back. Our friends invited us to go hiking, but we didn't expect that hard, tough, and strenuous climbing. Anyway, we went all the way up to the top. When we were coming down... we were just so exhausted and didn't even have energy to talk. hahaha. James was kinda had a smile when he started this hiking. James started wondering when this will end and not enjoying this. Yuri did really a good job climbing with us. :) Finally, on the top of the peak! Table Rock! Look at the clouds! All of a sudden, we had hails. With our friends who tricked us to go with them. lol. When we were coming down, James has no smile. This video is taken when we were on the top.

Yuri slept for 8 hours!!

I put her to bed around 830 yesterday, and she woke up at 440 this morning. That means she slept for 8 hours straight!! I couldn't believe that she slept that long. This was surely was a record breaking! She is getting almost 5 months. Finally, she is helping me have a good night sleep. Yay!!!

I have a baby now.

I am in the states now. I think I can start blogging here now. I had a baby girl on Feb 26th, 2012 12:55AM. She was 4 lb. 14oz. She was healthy. I am in love with this little angel. Her name is Yuri. James and I love her so much. This is when she was first born. She was a tiny baby, but her feet were quite big. I guess they took after her daddy's. My mom was with me through my labor. I appreciate what she had done for me.
