Pretty sure i've reached my weekly intake of eggs. I was so hungry after church i ate four hardboiled eggs and immediately regretted it for fear of my unpredictable bowels. Any more and i'll be taking in too much cholesterol, and too much of that is never good.

Moving on...happy easter everyone! This last week was fulfilling. First of all, I've been able to read a lot more and reading usually inspires me to think pretty hard. Giving up leisure media was good for one thing at least. I only brought five books to Korea--tbk by dostoevsky, two dave eggers books and the bible. I did just buy Dune by frank herbert. I heard it's one of those books where the reader has to do all the work the first hundred pages but you're rewarded with a huge payoff after. Secondly, two classes got canceled so with my evenings free, I met up with old and new friends for dinners and caught a Good friday service. It was nice. Thirdly, i've gone on longer runs and it feels pretty euphoric when i finish since i start and end my route at the top of a hill.

Now, it is Monday. I arrived to work straight from the dentist and I'm a little woozy from all the anesthesia. Think i hear voices of my students flowing up the stairs. Most of them get to class early only to sit and concentrate very hard on their cellphone games. And I don't know what it is, but lately, i catch myself muttering, they are so cute. Like when a girl sneaked in a pet hamster inside her jacket pocket and tried to play with it during class or when a boy wiggled his baby tooth free and interrupted class to announce what happened or when another boy entered class with a venti starbucks americano and when i asked him why he said he just really loves coffee. Oh i think they're here
