so, i did another experiment yesterday, this time with boss1.boss1 bought some bread with fresh cream and red bean filling when he came into the office, and i had a piece. then he asked if i wanted another piece. i am not a fan of cream, or anything that is made from milk (except ice-cream ...
as i was leaving the office today, boss1 stopped me and passed me an envelope, saying that it’s the money for my plane tickets — plus an extra 100,000won to spend in japan.i was stunned for a moment, and could only utter a shocked, “why???” to which he replied, “just have fun! enjoy yourself.”i was ...

whee! new look!decided to change it cos everyone has been teasing me about the rainbows (GAY PRIDE FTW!! hoho), especially dan, who insists that i have lesbian tendencies. WHY he would think that i have no idea (actually i do, but =x); maybe it’s just his way of subtly hinting that he’s really female, i ...

my biggest client does a lot of designs with the words “monaco” and “monte carlo”, and i think it’ll be damn cool if i actually go there and see our designs on their shirts. i’ve been to monte carlo before, but it’d be nice to go there again. and if i do come across shirts ...

i was chatting with boss1 over msn with boss2 looking at my screen.“왜 k 한글 타자가 나보다 더 빠르냐?” (why does k type korean faster than me?)“네? 실장님이 나이가 많아서 그런가요?” (maybe co …
i like the korean way of laughing when chatting on IM cos they look like eyes!ㅋㅋ - stands for kekeke because in the korean alphabet, ㅋ is the phonetic equivalent of “k”ㅎㅎ - sta …
whatever the outcome of the result that i am expecting to receive in june, i have decided to leave this company at the end of july, and i’ll tender my resignation after i return from london.i have had lots of time to think about this, and this feels like the right step to take. although ...
while i was walking around in jinhae, i had this sudden craving for peanuts. for some reason i always get weird cravings when my “aunt” comes for a visit, instead of the usual chocolate cravings that most girls get.so anyway, we stopped by at this little grocery shop by the road to get some drinks, ...
