merry x and happ new...

happy new years, y'all...

i hope that the new years brings health and happiness.

as for me, i want to say congratulations to my brother and new sister in law. They finally sealed the deal. one of the consequences of living abroad is that i miss a lot of family things, but alas there is a part ii to this wedding and so i won't miss it completely!

before last year became last year (when it was this year), i went skiing with some friends from school. the slopes of korea cannot be compared to the skiing back in the states, but one takes what one is given. it was good times on the slope, a little icy and not very long, but with good friends, well, comes the good times...It was nice few days to get out of seoul and more of bonus to be out and on skis.

the year is going to start a bit busy as i am working on a commission for a little japanese restaurant that is starting up later this year. but i should finish up most of the work this month before i go home for a bit. a 30-piece set and a 15-pc set of plates is going to be the one thing that keeps me sane while i wait to get on that jet plane. be nice to go home for a while...recharge!

anywho...best wishes to all of you. may this year bring great experiences and opportunities.
