I know that it's starting to get repetitive but I can't resist: Kang Shin Who is the worst reporter in the history of journalism. Today's article had absolutely no point. "US Admissions System Saps Korean Students"...it was supposed to perhaps make that point but the article only interviewed one student. One. Uno. Hana. Un. ONE. It wasn't scripted as a 'let's follow the application process autobiography' sort of thing--based on the title, it was supposed to be following an overarching trend.

Why do I ever stray from the BBC and New York Times? Why do I do this to myself?! Mainly because the international papers rarely publish Korean news unless the North Koreans blow something up or Kim Yuna sneezes.

Today is Friday. I will try to write everyday this weekend but let's be honest, my track record isn't stellar. I am endeavoring to save more money so I am not going dancing this weekend (which happily coincides with my ankles doing terribly) and will probably hangout with local folk. There are some new teachers in the area to meet, we'll see how that goes...
