Sabbatical Day 270 (2.2.17) - What the Heck Have I Been Doing?

Man, I can't believe it's already February. Where did January go? I think I just ended up staying in and trying to avoid the cold weather. It's been really cold and I'm not such a fan.

I told myself that I would study Korean on my own and I've only been able to get through a few lessons. Since I'm visiting home in March, it impacts the language programs I can enroll in, and I'm not able to enroll until June! Luckily Vicky is super motivated and created a Korean studying schedule for us that we will start next week. Very exciting!

I guess I also spent January doing a lot of cooking. I've also been dabbling with making videos to post online. I just wrote a script about cooking and how I want to research produce that it is in season and grown in Korea. This will be my new pet project for the next few days so I'm excited about that as well!

Sabbatical Day 238 (1.1.17) - New Year

For some reason 2017 doesn't seem as monumental to me as other new years. I think in the past I was much more resolved to make certain changes but right now, I'm currently in the middle of the biggest change for me yet.

So, I actually don't have resolutions. I just want to continue living each day in the manner that I've been - which is doing what I want to do and being open and accepting to new things.

Our celebration was also very different than it has been in the past several years. For the past 10 I think I've celebrated at home with our Cupertino friends. And this is the only year we weren't able to do that....our celebration wasn't bad at all-it was a lot of fun...but just different.
