I'm not unemployed anymore - I actually have a very fabulous job as a preschool teacher with the University of Michigan child care centers. But I'm still posting, albeit a little more irregularly, and I don't want to ignore the personal progress I've made since starting this blog by renaming it.

Blog inspiration: I read 48 States in 48 Days by Paul Jury in the summer of 2011. It was fabulous...although he planned way less for his roadtrip than I would have. And at the same time, my lovely Anna was constantly reminding me that our lives were awesome, despite the fact that we didn't have job prospects, new cars, boyfriends/husbands, houses, etc., like so many people we knew. So, in an effort to appreciate my life and the crazy uncertainty that it is, I started writing this blog about the little adventures I have. (And by "writing a blog," I mean "making a list" because I make lists, not narratives.) Even if there isn't a BIG adventure that happens every day, I try to find at least one thing to list :)

March of the Caterpillar (Mar 1)

  • Happy March!
  • I slept for 13 hours last night and it was glorious. I thought I missed Ji Hyeon coming over, but she slept really late too :) We are both recovering from a few very long weeks. Once she arrived at my apt, we went to run errands, back at the giant Home Plus shopping center. So many people were there because today is a holiday in Korea – it reminded me of when I went to Target in Brooklyn with Krystle. After being on the internet for a while and drinking some coffee, we went to work. We ended up getting everything I needed but it did take a while (and several trips between floors). Ji Hyeon thanked me at one point during the day, because I had been asking her about why today is a holiday and she had forgotten why it was so important, until I asked her and she researched a little. It was cute :) I made sure to thank her a lot for coming with me.
