I can’t believe 2009 is over and we’re on to a new year already. We went down to Seoul to celebrate and brought in the new year with about 5 million other people packed into one little neighborhood of the city. We were downtown to Jogna where they ring this big bell and have a bunch of performances– basically the Korean equivalent of Times Square in New York. It was suuuuper crowded, there were police everywhere (like the entire Korean police force) and it was about –30 degrees. At one point I truly thought we were going to get trampled and/or freeze to death… BUT, we survived and it was lots of fun and we lit a bunch of fireworks and had a midnight toast and screamed really loud and did all the other cliche new year’s things you’re supposed to do. I’ve never done the whole big-city thing for New Years, so it was fun to be outside with a bunch of other people and be part of a big ole celebration. Perfect chaotic intro to what is sure to be a very chaotic year…

that sounds so fun! Hey guess what? I totally had a dream with you in it the other night. We were in Korea (because I decided to go with you) and we were at the food market(it looked a lot like Africa’s market) and I was so concerned that I wouldn’t find food that I liked and so I made you help me pick it out and I ended up spending all the money I had on food. Thanks a lot CHRISSY!

You look BEAUTIFUL, per usual! How fun to celebrate with 5 million others in the big city! I sat by myself on a couch and ate my way through the evening. I’m really cool though.

I MISS YOU.
I leave soon.
Don’t forget me.
