I can’t believe it’s Christmas on Friday! Things have been so crazy here I haven’t had time to even check everyone’s blogs! I feel so behind!
I’ve decided that after Christmas I’m probably going to either opt for keyboard stickers or just getting a fine-tipped sharpie and writing the letters on myself. There’s no point getting a great big keyboard cover when it could be fairly soon that I need to change computers!
I am also looking to get some kind of dictionary. I think I might go with a cheap electronic one–though I’m not sure yet. There are many out there–but at this point, even a fairly low-end, cheap, not particularly brilliant one will be of benefit (considering that I’m still most definitely a beginner). It wouldn’t be until sometime in January though–so I’ve plenty of time to think about it. I’m also seriously considering using some of my reimbursement to get a wii with wii fit or something similar. Looking at gym fees or even fees for any kind of class, it gets expensive quickly. A wii would provide regular video games plus other options such as yoga, or wii fit, as well as DDR etc etc. So, we’ll see.
So… who’s doing what for Christmas? We’re just staying home, avoiding traffic and the cold weather and waiting for Santa!
Now, here’s a couple of phrases for you all that are relevant to the season:
These mean “Merry Christmas and Happy New Year” in Korean.

More traditional style New Year greetings:
