"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Pepero Day

Today was a day that Koreans give out these snacks called 'pepero'. They are bread like sticks (like the ones you get in the Kraft snack packs that you dip into cheese). Well these have chocolate on them, they can also be pretzel like. They hand them out this day because it is 11-11, and the date looks like sticks. Therefore, Pepero Day.

Tonight was also the first time I have REALLY gone out since I have been in Korea. There was a 20/30 something function at church. We hung out there and played some games, then a group of us went and hung out talking some more at 'Starbucks'. It was just a really good time, and fun to finally get out and just relax.

I am also finally learning how to read Korean. I am having the hardest time with vowels, but it is coming along. Of course, I won't know some of the stuff I am reading, but it will help in getting around.
