On Saturday, April 9th, 2016, Junkyu and I got married in the traditional Korean style, just as the sun set.

Game Together, Stay Together
In case you didn’t know, I’m a video gamer. I grew up on video games like Pokemon, Super Mario, Zelda, Pac Man, etc. As an only child, video games gave me a lot to do when I was bored in my house alone. When I went to my cousins’ or friends’ houses, we would all […]
Birthday Weekend with Dolphins!
My birthday was last Sunday, so my friend came to visit for the weekend. It was nice getting to go out and do things with my friends, since last week was a whole week of sitting at middle school doing nothing. I wasn’t even told that we weren’t having class or that we had entrance […]

A (Sickly) Sweet Weekend
My boyfriend Junkyu came to visit this weekend! We had a long weekend in Japan, so even though he arrived on Saturday afternoon, we had three days to spend together before he had to go back to Korea. He got sick the week before he came, and I (half-jokingly) told him that he better not […]

My Japanese Husband Thinks I’m Crazy – Book Review
I have been following Grace and her husband Ryosuke’s blog for some time now, and I really enjoy reading about their adventures as an international couple. Living in Japan myself, I can really relate to a lot of the things she talks about. She gave me a PDF version of her book to review and […]
