Thursday April 9 Notice

I hope everyone is having a nice Thursday. I just wanted to let you know that I'm here all day today and I'll be checking everyone's blogs periodically. Please make sure you get your assignments on your blogs by 5:00 pm. I know it's hard, but I have faith in you. You can do it!

Bo Kyung & Sung Jin - Please go to CUSTOMIZE/SETTINGS/COMMENTS and check the first part which is called comments. Make sure you have SHOW selected. If you have HIDE this will prevent us from seeing your comments. If this doesn't work, I'm not sure what to do. Anyhow, let's try this first.

MY TYPICAL DAY

..............Every day of the week is busy. On weekdays, I get up early in the morning, prepare breakfast and see my husband off to work. After that, I usually do a few house chores, take a shower and get myself ready for the day. Then I prepare lunch for my father-in-law and I, clean up and leave for work at 12:20. I work from one until 8 pm and then I tie up some loose ends at work before heading home. When I get home, my dogs are waiting to be taken for their walk, so I change my clothes, get them ready and go out for a short stroll around the neighborhood. After that, even though I'm quite tired, I sit and chat with my husband about our day. By midnight, I'm ready to curl up in bed with a good book. The weekends are very similar to the weekdays except I work at home instead of at the office. I still get up early, prepare breakfast, see my husband off to school and do house chores. I prepare meals for my family, walk the dogs and enjoy life. It's a never ending cycle which makes for a busy life no matter what day it is.

Special Easter dinner - Ham with pineapple sauce, creamy potatoes, vegetables and carrot cake for dessert.

ASSIGNMENT 5 - My Hobbies

..............When I free time, I enjoy doing many different kinds of things. I spend most of my free time these days cooking. I surf the internet for recipes and then cook them. My family appreciates my effort even though the food isn't overly delicious sometimes. I also spend some of my free time doing pottery. I just finished making a set of soju cups, and I'm going to start making a set of dishes next week. I would like to spend more time doing pottery, but I'm too busy doing other things. Another thing I like to do is read. If I'm not too tired at night, I like to lie in bed and read. I often read suspense novels and it's hard to put it down and go to bed. I sometimes end up staying up reading all night if the book is really good, but I try not to do that often. These days I've started taking up scrapbooking which isn't popular in Korea. Now that spring is here I'm hoping to get out more and go for picnics which is my most favorite thing to do when I have free time. Free time is not plentiful becasue I have a full-time job and a family however I always manage to fit one of these into my busy schedule every day.
