I gave the other to a friend but somehow it ended up in a girl's car who apparently lives near me but who I don't know at all. Hopefully I will manage to get in touch with her this week to reclaim my lamp...Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578743779311742562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-81591642237080378792010-05-11T10:45:08.804-04:002010-05-11T10:45:08.804-04:00I concur, 'Nice-uh' still has yet to leave...I concur, 'Nice-uh' still has yet to leave my vernacular. I have hispanic service techs I work with and sometimes I'll reply to their spanish with korean, like I keep saying "mulayo" instead of "no se."<br /><br />Love the Buddhist tale, by the way. It's a keeper, like my favorite Taoist tale:<br /><br />Two monks stand on a bridge and watch the fish in the stream near their temple. One monk says, "Ah, how wonderful it is to be a fish, freely swimming in the clear stream." The other month says, "But, you are not a fish. How could you possibly know what it is to be a fish?" "Ah," replied the former, "but you are not I, so how do you know I don't know what it is to be a fish."<br /><br />God I love that one.<br /><br />So where did you put your lanterns? Did it make it?erahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503204649579316620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-33365793444497176412010-05-10T23:53:17.601-04:002010-05-10T23:53:17.601-04:00Yes but it might make me feel better about it!
W...Yes but it might make me feel better about it! <br /><br />When I was home in between contracts I somehow found myself mixing Korean and Spanish together like 'hana mas mama.' It was strange and completely unintelligible. <br /><br />I don't think I'll ever stop saying 'nice-uh'....Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578743779311742562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-71409479761647526512010-05-10T23:23:30.907-04:002010-05-10T23:23:30.907-04:00I don't know if that summer vacation is going ...I don't know if that summer vacation is going to rid you of your Konglish.
