How we met (1)

We have been together now for just over 6 years including dating and marriage.
I thought it would be nice to write how we met.
James and I once made a video about it, but we never went in details.
So... if you are interested in learning how we met!! This is a real version. hahaha.

We met at work.
I just graduated from a college, and I started working at an English language Institute as an English teacher. I wanted to save up money to go to a graduate school to the US, so I was preparing to take GRE test and work at the same time. My second week of the work, James came as a substitute teacher. I went to my classroom and encountered James who was sitting in front of students who were enjoying their break time. James was just sitting there looking at the students and spending the break time there. (During the break time, teachers come to teachers office, but he was just a substitute and he did not have his desk, so he probably just decided to stay in a classroom.) When I first saw him, he just looked so cute. Hahaha. To be honest, I never met any black person around my age until then. I was a bit amazed by how cute a black person is and how interesting for me to see him. I was just a typical Korean girl who was never exposed to other ethnic people except for white people. (Yeah, yeah, I know. I was not cool, then. lol)

I wanted to talk to him, but he always seemed not to enjoy talking. James later told me that he was shy in front of me. (cute! hahaha)

This was how we first met.

This will be a series story. So..

TO BE CONTINUED....

How we met (6)

Read from the beginning! How we met (1) Click!!! James kept saying there was "a woman", and she got angry and he couldn't understand why she was angry at him. I asked him who she was, and James told me he didn't know her, but she got angry at him. The more he talked, the more I couldn't understand what he was talking about and couldn't trust him. Then, I thought, 'Maybe he is talking about what he did while he was gone.' Yes! He was! He was talking about what he was doing when he was gone. So.. when I combined what he was saying... 1. There was a woman. 2. He just met her before I came. 3. She got angry when she saw me coming with him. 4. She poured the drink from her glass on James. 5. James couldn't understand why she was jealous and angry. 6. He got angry, too! That was basically what I collected from drunk James. Hmmmm.... O....ka...y.... I was standing in front of him listening to what he had to say and started to wonder why he tried so hard t...

What Korean people do when they are on a date

Image
Obviously, when Korean people go out on a date, they do the same things as other people such as going to a coffee shop, eating at a restaurant, going to the movies, going to a sport event, etc. However, there are some places where Korean people like to go when they are hanging out with their friends or dating. 1. 노래방( Noraebang) Karaoke Karaoke is a place where you can sing with your friends. Korean people love to sing. Even couples go to noraebang to sing together. 2. Coffee shop As you can see, coffee shops are partitioned. They want to have private tables for them, so lots of coffee shops which are partitioned are popular among couples.  It is like you have your own private space to drink coffee (or make out?). 3. DVD room This is a place where you can watch movies in a very small theater. When you go inside, you choose what movie you want to watch and then watch it in a room. Since DVD rooms can be used as hotels (some people go there to make out and more!), minors can not...
