Thanks Mom!

This made me smile all day long. 

Cousin Distribution

In effort to evenly distribute and disperse my family members on the map of the United States, I will be moving to Columbia, South Carolina next month.   I just accepted a job at the Ft. Jackson Army Base library right outside of the city.

Candy Juice

This is Korean plum juice and it was one of my favorite things in Korea.  I knew that I was going to miss it.  But this week, I found a Korean grocery store here.  This juice is very sweet, hence it's nickname in the ward of "candy juice."

Brothers

 This month I've been hanging out with my brothers.  I dropped one off at school, helping him move in.  It was a fun drive and good to see where he'll be going to school.  Notice the shirt.  This brother has a wardrobe with a sense of humor.

I spent an afternoon with my youngest brother at Lagoon before he too started school.  We had fun, the park was empty and there were no lines.

The funny thing about genetics is that we had to add quiet rides between the crazy roller coasters.  Without any lines, I needed time to settle my stomach before going on the next.  This also allowed time for photo shoots with the ham.  Something about being the youngest means that you love the camera in your face.

Family

Moving home has been challenging and rewarding.  We've had 4 generations here.  That means that there is lots going on at any given moment and zero closet space.  But spending time laughing with my siblings is worth it.

Saying Goodbye

 Busan beach

Awesome instructions for surviving rip currents at the beach: "1. Learn how to swim."

What's next

I don't know.

Short term, I am consumed with the details of moving my household across the world.  I will move back home, (Thanks Mom and Dad) while I continue the job hunt.
