what it is

so think it's maybe been a while since i've updated. right now i'm using my roommate's computer in my dorm room at my university. in korea. i've been here a little over a week. it rules.
i spent my last week in the states with my mary in st cloud. it was freakin' sweet. it's so weird going out drinking with her. her roommate adam just turned 21, so we went out to all the cool st cloud bars. mary was the sober cab that night, but i got plenty wasted. i met a guy (dave) that adam works with, and i ended up going home with him and having the most amazing sex ever. fun night. and i did the same thing two other nights, too. good stuff. sam and brianne came to visit me there for a couple days, as well. i showed them around st cloud (because i totally know it so well) and we took some awesome pictures. they were there for two nights, and they took turns sleeping on the pool table. strange kids.
mary and i have already been talking about me spending another week with her when i get back.
my flight was on the 27th. it was pretty much a crazy emotional day. mary was supposed to drive me to the airport, but when i got back to her apartment in the morning (i had spent the night at dave's), everyone was still passed out and mary was all sick because her boyfriend made special brownies and she ate too much. she was practically unconscious, and i was all worried and crying and trying to say goodbye. so adam drove me. he was like, "i'll try my best to be your sister for you." and i kept tearing up, and i called my mom, and that made me cry some more, and i was nervous about the flight and going on it alone, and it was just a terrible, terrible day.
everything was fine once i was actually on the plane, though. it was just hella long and annoying. at one point, the guy next to me had a boner and i was a little uncomfortable.
blah blah blah, now i'm here, and i'm all settled, and i love all three of my roommates, and i love to go out drinking with them, and so far i've made out with one korean businessman and kissed one of the korean students. but i can't remember the student's name, and every time i've seen him since, i've been too embarrassed to ask. i have an enormous crush on him, but i was quite drunk when i kissed him, so now i'm just shy around him.
my classes are basically awesome. they started yesterday and i've been to three of mine. the programming class might be a bit of a challenge, as i am the only non-korean student. but it's only C++, and i figure i can learn that in any language. plus one of my roommates is in it. so i have a translator should i need one.
i seem to be quite popular among the koreans. everyone wants to meet me (mostly so i can teach them english), and i am loving the attention.
