FROM THE HEART: Happy Valentine's day! As this is a gushy time of the year (yeah it gets me in a little gushy mood too). There are days when being single sucks... and then there are days where it REALLY sucks (this being one of those days). Anyhoo, I decided to dedicate this post to the girl who broke... nay, gutted, shredded and did the Mexican hat dance on my heart back in high school. Okay folks, when Bon Jovi wrote "You Give Love a Bad Name", that was her! To all those who had a bad experience stand with me on this most torturous day of the year.
But seriously, despite having not spoken with the girl in years but I did forgive her and was even cordial around her before we went our separate ways. I learned alot from that experience:
1) Just because someone of the opposite sex shows some sort of interest does not mean its meant to be.
2) I've caused more hurt to others than that was done to me... everybody's made stupid mistakes in relationships that they wish they could take back. I'm no exception. Trying to understand how God can forgive and forget all my mistakes... truly amazing love.
3) Time does heal all wounds, I learned to replace the hurt & bitterness with forgiveness & closure.
4) Lastly, be cautious... when fools rush in, don't expect wise behavior.
I won't despair about not having someone today, I'll celebrate with the Perfect and True Lover of my soul and I hope you can too.

If it makes you feel any better, there are quite a few of singles out here on this day that seems that couples take hold of. Yes, celebrate with Jesus, b/c when/ if we get married the other person isn't the one that will make us compleate or happy. The Lord is.
I'm a big fan of our social club. Here's hoping you find a Sunday social club too! And hey, if not, just hop a bus and join OUR social club! Jung Hoon is a good sport and all, but I seriously think he would love to have another dude tag along.
Ugh, V-day, for some reason when I talk to my Grandma around this time every year she asks me why I am not married yet (AHHHH!!!) I am still in the process of teaching but i have a nice long break in the day so I play computer...
I don't get done until 6:10 but officially I am not done until 7:40 so I hang out here and look like i am working, although usually I am. Plus, the school provides dinner and that saves me the trouble of figuring out if I am going to cook or go out. 
Where do all these couples come from on this day anyway? It's like everyone everyone is single until this day and then they all are attached. Weird.....
Hey I just found your site after joining the Relevant group... hope you don't mind me adding you! You're super interesting.

I only have two classes but I think I am supposed to be there the entire time. It's not bad though, I play computer and put together lessons for the rest of the week. I know if I were at home all that extra time I would probably not do anything.
Amen to that Mr. Will... I bought you something from India... I'll give it to you sometime this week... itz a traditional drum... yeah a drum... I ran out of ideas while I was there... geez.
How could I possibly forget about English? I guess I'll have to make an addendum to my entry. Thank you muchly for the advice.
This is so weird... I'm far too tired to think coherently, yet far too keyed up to go to sleep. What does one do when this sort of thing happens?
This usually doesn't happen. I went to a staff party for one of our Korean teachers. There was a great deal of fruit-eating and dancing going on. And I have to teach little people in 7 hours! And I don't HAVE a PS2~!
*looks covetously at pillows*
Maybe I should try again....
mmmm Bimimbop, I am salivating looking at the picture and I just ate it last night! Do you think there is a support group for people addicted to it?? I should check,.,,
Thanks for the breath of fresh air about Valentine's Day. My kids were so good to me and me still transitioning back into civilian life here at the homstead, aka TCIS, I almost forgot to be depressed, until I started planning for the next day and God called me for a one on one date. I stood him up and came late and exhausted. I don't want to do the same tonight, so I'm gonna go finish my lesson plans for tomorrow...
