Monday Snippets

Teaching a student to say "dig in" and "bon appetite" at lunch. Wishing I can get over to some cliffs nearby sometime soon to explore. The patchwork of pastel colored buildings across the inlet from Yeongdo bridge. The scruffy faced ajushi blatantly cutting me in line for the subway. A middle aged couple looking at three crisp dollar bills and talking about them. Wondering why these Koreans had them in the first place. Kids not knowing how to say "wedding" so linking arms and humming the bridal processional song. A little boy standing on the table so he could be tall like me so as to receive more kimchi bokenbop. People standing instead of taking the risk of sitting next to the foreigner (me).
