Will you kindly search kindly?

Baal Dan, a charity that is dedicated to improving the lives of street children in India, needs your help. It's simple. Just go to www.searchkindly.org and vote for Baal Dan. You can vote once every 8 hours, and the poll closes some time this Sunday (Dec 2nd). If Baal Dan wins the poll, they'll receive all the money raised on the Search Kindly website in December ($500-$1000). Baal Dan was started by a former Richards Group co-worker of mine, Tanya Pinto. The charity is dear to my heart, and the work is simply amazing. You can check it out at www.baaldan.com Okay, that's my plug for the day. It's not like I have a mass readership as it is anyways. I mean, I like to think people are crowded around their computer screens clinging on to every word I say/write, but reality and the happenings in my mind, are two very different stories. That being said, every little bit counts. So seriously, don't be lame, help out a great cause.


In other news, I'm freaking sick. After a full day of classes (9:30am-7:30pm baby), I now sound like a mix between a pubescent boy and an 80 year old chain smoker. Nice. I guess all the Julie boogies and Evan slobbers have finally caught up with me. Deep sigh. Sniffle. Hack. I'm looking forward to my no elementary Wednesday, which means my afternoon tomorrow is completely free. If I can get over my fear of being naked with the ajumas (old Korean women), I'm going to the Yuseong spring and then sculpting with Tori. I love no elementary Wednesdays.

This weekend we're going to Seoul and there's talk of China (4 days in Beijing and 3 days in HongKong) for Christmas. I'm excited about the prospect of China.

I'm going to rest my weary, weak, illness stricken body on my warm, heated Korean floor. It's quite nice. I sleep more on the floor than in my bed. It's kind of like my couch habit back in the States...I do what I can.

You really do need to get over your fear of nakedness with the old ladies - they're harmless (and will probably be in awe of the non-Asian body) :P

On the other hand, I have some traumatizing memories of being a 7 year old boy and having to go with my mom to the spa and strip in front of all these crinkly old ladies.

I hope you feel better Elizabeth!
