My Birthday

I had a lot of fun on my birthday. Between hanging out with people on the 5th here and all the internet birthday wishes from home (on the 5th in EST), it was like my birthday was two days long with the time difference. In the morning I met up with some friends from church and had coffee. After work that night all of the staff and teachers went out for dinner downtown. They brought a cake that was the best cake I’ve had here. In traditional Korean fasion, after dinner we went to a noorae-bang (karaoke room- it’s a place you go to where your group has their own private room to sing in. They have tons of Korean and American songs.) I teamed up with my coworker Melissa to have a chance at making a pleasant sound, but she had the same idea and so we sounded terrible… but it was a lot of fun. My boss pulled out the Mariah Carey and Beyonce and nailed them. By the end of the night we knew this would have to be a regular event.

I'm so glad you had a nice Birthday. I was wondering if you would be able to do anything fun. I sent my package last Saturday2/7/09 so you should be getting it soon.

I'm still very busy with teaching my class at Umass, but at least I 've been over the material once. I still have to revamp the power point presentations. I just started minute clinic training this week. It's 3 days at home doing computer modules then on Thursday I go to a clinic for the first time. So far the training is easy enough.

Nothing else new for Bobby and I.

LOVE YOU JEAN AND BOBBY
