Sudden shooting

I missed my buddy in Korea abruptly 40 minutes ago.
So we took a photo simultaneously and exchanged them.
That was the very thing that transcend the limit of the space time.

nickel silverware, jjajang-myon, dark and dull like training wear.
You are still there my man...
Wish you a happy new year.

Christmas' atmosphere in Van

I've seen the news article about Christmas that some people doesn't like to say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas". What's difference, though?

Now, my Vancouver is covered with light ball and rain cloud.
Carols run out all day on the radio.
Buses decorate with Christmas-like stuffs.
Salvation Army who seems in low spirit collecting contribution on the street. >_<

Season's greetings

Hello everyone.
Well, thank you very much for participating in today's glorious year-end party.

Tonight, I just want to tell you how meaningful my life in Canada is owing to all of you.
When I first came to Vancouver this spring, on the one hand I was fluttered with new life of course, but prior to this I was actually thinking about how to make a good relationship with foreign friends.

I have a cousin who had studied in the States several years ago and still keeps in touch with a Japanese friend who he met there.
When my cousin told me about his friend at my farewell party, I was impressed and decided to try hard to make a good relationship.
He gave me the advice that my foreign friends also could be my valuable property just like I have in Korea.

Fewer clients, less money.
Actually this is a line from Jerry Maguire, but it also kind of my idea about making friends.
I preferred less friends but strong as an oak.

But look, I can't believe that I have so many oaks here.

T, that you said to me before is maybe one of the best compliments of my 20's.
I appreciate your careful thought toward me.

E, yo mumbling my main man! I've really enjoyed lots of life-talk with you.
And also enjoyed your off-color jokes. I love your proper naughty humor.:)

M, you remind me "Don't judge a book by its cover" again.
You are such a heartwarming person.
And I would appreciate your great concern about Korean society and culture.

M, Thanks for being my pen pal friend since I've arrived in Vancouver.
You're one of the longest members so far!!
I really hope we could make a lasting relationship together.

Brain box M.
I really appreciate sharing issues about Korean guys and Japanese girls.
I totally agree with your idea and I'm also happy to have a friend like you.

Y, my right-hand man!
I was impressed that you are extreme hiking conscious guy and you have an instinct for Asian history.
You helped me to change my way of thinking about Japanese people.
As we promised, you've got to let me know when you'll get married.
I'll get there right away.

M, You remind me "First impressions really do count"
I loved to go to karaoke with you even though you believe you're tone-deaf.
But... could you please not be such a wet blanket?

I, the "people person"
You are the life of the party!
I'll never forget the last party at my place last summer.
I love your clear, friendly and cool voice!

J, You always play Cinderella but I think you are good from far, far from good.
Just kidding...
You often make friends laugh.
You are sweet and charming. Hope you keep your beauty for long.

Well, I'd like to make a toast to you guys!
Thanks a million friends!
To our friendship-!

Blk diamond @ Cypress

I went skiing at Cypress Mountain.
As per my host father's experience, this is the finest one within 10 miles from Vancouver.
The photo above is a kind of a 'single blk diamond' run. (challenging trail)
Check the Howe Sound and Bowen Island far behind me.

ey iy ay ow yuw/uw

Lorry and Lou, Lee "the liar" really, really, loves Frito-Lay chips.
Are you confident of pronounce this sentence nicely?
Well, I'm taking a pronunciation class this month, though.
Learning how to pronounce such a difficult word is like hunting.
Because I can decide the target(word) and trying to shoot(practice) constantly.

By the way, how about this one?
He caught the cod on the boat he bought.

Really, really, really great

10.00am, Burnaby Art of Dentistry.
Man! I had pulled out 3 of my severe wisdom teeth. .
God damn 470 dollars...

Moreover my dentist strongly recommend me to treat decayed teeth ASAP.
How in the world should I pay more?? :-/

Anyhow, I'm happy that I can say good-bye to Tylenol!

Nagoya's hope.. :-)

Yasu, 26 (aka older women killer)
Believe it or not, he's one of my best guy friends whom i make much of. :)
He's just moved to Gibson, B.C. which is the city well known for 'Sun shine Coast' last weekend.

He has a passion for extream travel.
He is also modest, but I beleive he's slightly different from other Japanese are.
He loves older women. and is surely looking forward to go with that age's woman... ^^

I'll miss you dude...
Wish you a good luck!
