School
Yesterday's classes looked fun. The drawing 3 teacher is British and was a former student at this university. He seems funny and fun. Our class is really small (8 people) so there might be opportunities to do cool things like visit the hospital morgue and draw the cadavers. He told a gross story of how he brought his class to the morgue and someone wanted to move the cadaver's arm so they can see it better but no one wanted to touch the body. So the teacher moves the arm with his pen and the class continues to draw. The teacher was also drawing too when all of a sudden the class looks at him in disgust and he realizes that he had been chewing on his pen which he had touched the body earlier. D: hehe
On to something not gross, but dangerous is Casting class. It's aluminum and bronze casting and involves hot hot melted metal. Ooh scary.

I never got to post this picture but I saw this sign by the nail salon inside a Wal-Mart. Some English teacher or major thought they'd help out with the sign.
Unfortunately, they didn't seem to notice that "convenience" was spelled wrong and 2 spaces was needed before the last sentence. And that last "You" is a bit wonky too.
My Angel
I was surprised to hear the sudden passing of Korean actor/model Lee Eon from a motorcycle accident. He was so funny in the drama Coffee Prince where he played the tall dumb guy who kept harassing the main girl's sister and kept calling her "My Angel". He was quite handsome too. Sorry to hear him go.
On a lighter note
Congrats to the US beach volleyball team for winning gold against China. The match had Mel and me screaming this late at night. hehe
And to Morning Musume and South Park fans, this video is hella hilarious. XD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQAsCOIa8ZY
