Day Maker

It's Monday. I have 3 weeks left of school, one week of summer camp and then I am essentially done for 2 months. Yeah, I shouldn't be allowed to complain, ever.

But last night Matt and I ventured to Costco to pick up some pictures, which was a very bad idea for a Sunday night. Let's just say that for 2 straight hours I was essentially pissed off at EVERY SINGLE person I came in contact with. Whether it was the children running around and running into ME and my CART because their parents weren't watching them, or the teenage boy who dove in at the last minute and took the table in the food court I was going to take after the couple got up, or the motorcycle that almost mowed me over on the sidewalk. UGH. I assign some of the frustration on just living in a city and dealing with masses of people, and some of the blame on Koreans themselves. While 99% of the time we love it here, love the culture and adore the people, occasionally we get fed up with their lack of respect for strangers, their disregard for parenting in public and their downright rudeness.

ANYWAYS, to make it better today, I was handed a note in class by two of the lowest level girls I have. Here is what it says (word for word):
