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 :)

No Sleep Tonight (June 12)

  • I really think that the bus drivers in Pohang (at least some of them) definitely go fast (especially over the bridge by my house...I flew in the air this time!), stop quickly and make people run just for the fun of it sometimes.
  • I wish I didn't have to sleep. While I enjoy a long sleep every once in a while, more often I wish I could just keep talking to friends and family or working on projects or watching movies instead of wasting several hours doing nothing. What's worse is I can't survive on as little sleep as I used to. I can generally function alright if I wake up after 3-5 hours of sleep - but the problem is actually waking up. I've done it a few times here but not when I really needed to or as often as I'd like too. I think I have to just start accepting that I need 7+ hours of sleep. Boooo.
