The Been Briefing

I have become the Journal Proofreading Fiend. I am amazing! (lol)

Here are some examples from the journals (before I tore them apart) ahahahaha!:

I went to the dental surgery, because I have an irregular set of teeth. (age 9, maybe)

and

Today my uncle brought the turkey from the country. The turkey was living. Soon the turkey killed my uncle. I think about a poor turkey, and the turkey eat the my grandfather. I think the turkey is too poor.

what?!?! lol


my cell phone died on tuesday, because i accidently didn't seal the lid to my water bottle. i found a puddle of water on my floor (from my workout bag) and my cell sitting in the water in my bag. oh joys! that is why i am refusing to become addicted to a cell even here in majorly-technologically-hooked-up korea. so right now mine is at the cell-phone hospital. it's kind of nice not being on that leash. ;)


and i think i need a new washer. mine is wild and crazy. not to be trusted for actually washing my clothes. or spinning afterwards to actually get the water out. LOL.


the other day in a spare moment i heard wendy say, "alrighty then..." wendy is 6 1/2 years old. i nearly keeled over. who says kids don't mimic their elders? LOOOOOOOOOOOL. i stared at her in shock and started laughing. she repeated it a couple more times for the effect.


caleb continues to be ridiculous. i found out that he really doesn't like his picture to be taken. i got one by stealth, though.


my step 3 kids are learning passive voice right now, and i've never heard so much sighing in all my life. you would have thought they were facing the chopping block. i decided to have a little fun with them tonight, so i sat in my reading chair, had them spread out a warm blanket on the floor, and i read them some Little Critter books. just like my kindergartners. hehee.


have i ever told you that koreans whine? well, they do. all ages. when i get back to the states ask me to imitate it for you, okay? lol.
