Adventures in Blogiversaries…

I just realized I’ve been Blogging now for 3 years (and 2 days). I was just browsing through some of my first posts and realized I’d forgotten how cute the kindergarden kids could be. I don’t miss teaching at that school at all, but I do wonder how some of the little kids are doing.

It’s amazing how interesting (or procrastinative) it can be reading through dull little day-to-day blips from years ago. So many things that would normally be forgotten have now been recorded for posterity, so I can re-read them, then forget about them again and again and again.

I hope you’ve enjoyed reading ’em over the years. It’s certainly a mish-mash of “random randomness at random times” to quote the byline of Ben’s blog. Thanks for your readership!

Adventures in Bathroom Accessories…

1. My toilet paper roll holder was made by a Korean company: Bum Han.
2. During a nights sleep, my sense of humour seems to reset itself to somewhere around its kindergarden level. After my cup of coffee, my sense of humour tries to catch up with my real age, but it doesn’t always succeed.
3. Sometimes, it makes me laugh a little that the word “Bum” is permanently etched above my -ahem- hygenic tissue roll.
4. Sorry you had to read this.

Adventures in Books…

For my birthday, I was given some gift certificates for an English book bookstore here. This past weekend, I used them to pick up a couple of titles that looked interesting. I’ve just finished reading the first little one, and it was fantastic. It was short, and simple, but it was written from such a unique perspective that it kept me interested. Even though I finished it yesterday, I’ve picked it up a few times today and read a page here and a page there – mostly because I don’t want the story to be over. I keep hoping I might have accidentally missed a few pages the first time through, and might discover them if I pounce on the book (catching it off-guard, of course) and spring it open to a random page. So far, no luck.

I’d like to be able to tell you what book it is, but since I just got a copy of it for my sister for Christmas, I can’t. Even so, I hope you’re all enjoying a good book today.
