    How adorable! He is a tall drink of water and you are so petite and cute. Pretty scenery for the backdrop too. You make a great pair. How much longer until you see him again?

    Right, that's pretty much what it is. I went last year, and it was so much fun. So I look forward to meeting more new people, and experiencing Korean culture as an outsider instead of a real Korean, haha. Although everyone there talks to me in Korean because they assume I know it, and I'm just like *smile and nod*.

    That's so exciting you are there already! I hope you go to Ikea when you are in Sweden, haha. I'd love to go to Norway, and I'm a sucker for Nordic guys (on tv that is). Haha. Yeah, Im very happy with my single-ness now, I'll stick with flirting that leads nowhere and random guys here and there. Since I'm leaving the country a relationship would be sort of pointless anyway. I hope the learning Norwegian is going well, have you considered Rosetta Stone?

    Right, I've actually only been there once before, last summer doing a study abroad program for 2 months. And I don't know the language, so I wouldn't quite call it home, but it is amazingly awesome. And I always wish I had a british or australian accent...

    If hes the one, than go for it! That's going to be way better than trying to long distance relationship, because god knows those are the stinker. And yeah, my long term relationships are always super long, my first major boyfriend and I went though high school, ended up lasting over 3 years. Then my last major boyfriend and I were together for just about 2 years, and split up last December. I'm taking a break, because I've had very little single time throughout my life, since 7th grade that is.

    And eek! That's how Korea is also, its super expensive to ship things there, and they may or may not come in one piece. I say embrace it, and take it as a chance to buy all new fancy and pretty things! "Oops, I lost my favorite heels, better buy a new pair"

    Sounds like a fun job. Basically sounds like the business of being in a library! I think doing inventory for a library would really open one up to new books, and be really interesting. And I'm excited for the wedding as well, for this one I mostly just did all the food and beverage, as they didn't have a huge, extravagant wedding. Two college kids on a low budget makes a much easier job for me.

    I'm really excited for Korea. I was born there, and was adopted so it's definitely a personal connection to the country. I think teaching in Australia would be so fun, I wonder if those kids she taught have less of an accent? Or more of a british accent?

    Moving to Norway sounds very exciting, do you speak Norweigen? How long have you guys known each other? I decided to be off long-term relationships for the time being. Makes life a bit simpler.

    A career of librarianship? What exactly does that entail? I don't think we have that here.... I also have looked into wedding planning and actually am doing an internship right now helping plan a student's wedding. Otherwise I'm a hospitality/tourism major, so its mainly hotels, travel, restaurants, events that sort of studies. I'm actually also headed off, to Korea once the term finishes (our school gets out super late). I'll be teaching english, and studying some while Im there for around 5-6 months. It should be super fun.

    And I saw you finished!! (In all genre's.) Emma was definitely my favorite. My personality is most like hers, and I think Jack is more like the guys I date in real life, than most the other guys.

    Hey, you had said we had pretty similar taste in books so I came here, and yes it seems we do. What's funny is all the event planning books you've read recently, and I am majoring in hospitality and tourism, a large part of which is event planning courses.... Also, finish the Bride Books!!
