Before I even got engaged to my now husband, my mom, my grandma and I were standing in line for the Hogwarts Castle ride in Universal Studios Japan. It was our second time visiting The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The first time, we went to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, and I was a […]

Wedding Album Photos – 웨딩 앨범 사진
We just went back to our wedding venue to pick up three copies of our wedding album! Our friends took the pictures and video during our wedding, but afterwards, the venue’s photographer took pictures of the two of us, as well as our family and friends. The woman who did my hair and makeup is […]
Our Korean Wedding – 우리 결혼했어요
On Saturday, April 9th, 2016, Junkyu and I got married in the traditional Korean style, just as the sun set. It was a beautiful spring day, and although I had no idea what to do during the ceremony, the staff were very kind and helpful, and everything went smoothly. A few days before, we picked up […]
Meet Leo – Our Adopted Kitty! – 고양이를 분양 받았어요!
Junkyu and I are both animal lovers. Growing up, I had a beloved labrador retriever named Ellie who followed me everywhere. My mom and I also took our horses trail riding as often as we could, and when I was in high school, she finally bought some land and now has a growing farm and […]
Our Pre-Wedding Photos! – 웨딩찰영
A few weeks ago, we went to a photography studio to get our pre-wedding photos taken. It’s a concept we don’t have in America (although we do take engagement photos, they are usually taken outside and are not as posed) but I have always wanted to do it. When one of my favorite Youtubers, Bubz, […]
A (Slightly Stressful) Trip to Seoul!
We live in Daejeon, so we are able to drive to Seoul in a few hours or take the KTX there which only takes 50 minutes, but that doesn’t mean we go often. Since Junkyu started his new company, he spends his weekends at the office a lot of the time. However, I had to […]
Korean Wedding Planning – 결혼식 준비
Finally! Wedding planning is in full swing. We set a date for our wedding in Korea a few months ago, but it didn’t feel like it was real then. Now, we are less than 60 days away and I’m getting really excited. Our wedding will be a traditional Korean wedding, held at an outdoor/indoor venue […]
First Time Snowboarding!
Wow, I can’t believe it’s already been a few weeks since I went snowboarding! It was an awesome experience, something I’ve always wanted to do. As a girl from the South, I hardly saw snow growing up, and the closest I ever came to snowboarding was sledding down the tiny hill in my backyard on […]
44th TOPIK I Test Results – 한국어능력시험결과
A few weeks ago, I took the TOPIK I for the first time, to test my Korean level. I felt pretty good about it when I was done, and I was anxious to see my results. I didn’t study as much as I intended to, and I will definitely need to study more before attempting […]
Taking the TOPIK I
Finally! I experienced the TOPIK for the first time. Some of you might remember that I took the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) in the summer, and that I planned on taking the TOPIK, which is the Korean equivalent. Well, I was finally able to sign up and (after a bit of drama) finished my […]
