I was thinking about James calling me just to ask my name. I felt like he might not have been interested in me as much as I was. At least, I knew his name! So.. I decided to stay friends with him and thought that was at least what his intention was.

He called me once or twice a week after that. He asked me how I was doing and talked a bit, and he never asked me out. All our talk on the phone was really superficial nothing substantial even if we were just friends. So.. I started to wonder why we were talking on the phone once or twice a week and just asking each other how we were doing. I started to feel uncomfortable to talk to him since we didn't grow our relationship toward any direction. (Not even friendship. That was what I thought.) He never asked me out or anything, so I felt like he was just going through calling one girl a day on his phone contacts. I just felt like he was just calling me so that he did not get bored or something.

Maybe, he was this much bored. lol.

So I started ditching his phone calls. I know I should have just told him what I felt, but I didn't want to say those stuff directly to him and didn't know how to. I thought avoiding calls will give him a hint.

However, he kept calling me. I kept getting missed calls from him. I felt bad.. but I didn't know what to do.

One day, I was texting with my phone and the phone rang. At that time, if you pressed any button, the phone automatically got picked up. I accidentally picked up James's phone (Heaven helped James. lol), and we got to talk to him. He was saying it was really hard to catch me and told me he was glad that he could talk to me.

So.. I wanted to find out if he was interested in meeting me up. I asked him if he would like to give my umbrella back and maybe treat me a lunch. He said he would love to. So... I told him to text me with a date and ask me officially.

He texted me the next day asking if we could get together the following weekend.
But... All of a sudden, I felt like the whole idea of us getting together was not from him actually I asked him to do that. I didn't feel good about it all of a sudden. lol. So... I didn't reply the text of him.

And... I could not get any texts after that.

And I was thinking if he thinks that I am not worth trying to text at least twice, I don't need to waste my time.

Hey, You stupid! She not replying does not mean she is not interested in you! She wants to know how much you like her!

So we stopped contacting each other.


TO BE CONTINUED....


Today's lesson: If an Asian girl does not reply your text message, try twice. She will feel that you are really serious. lol.

Yes!! Yuri is in a commercial!

A hospital contacted me around a month ago and asked me if they could use a video of Yuri's for their commercial. It is a Children's hospital, and we gladly accepted and now she is on TV!!!
If anyone lives in Pennsylvania, you need to look for the commercial on your local TV!
The Hospital is Lehigh Valley Health Network.

Anyway, Enjoy our treasure, Yuri. :)

So... there were some comments that motivated me to keep writing, so I am back! lol. Thanks for your comments by the way. I love you. <3 nbsp="nbsp">

James was a pretty much silent guy at work. A lot of students liked him and told me that he was a really fun guy, but I could not find that out since he was just not talking to the teachers. He finished his a-week-long substitute job and left. I never really had a chance to talk to him, so I didn't bother to get to know him. He was just a sub teacher at my work. That was all.

Around a week later, one teacher called in sick for like a week(This teacher became a pain in our principle's butt). So, James came back the next day and worked for a week again. We just said hi and how are you, but nothing much was going on. But, the last day of James, we met in front of the elevator. James was going home, and I was going down to grab some snack(When you are teaching, you get hungry easily. lol). It was the most awkward moment ever. Again, after we said hi, no one talked. (James was just really not a talker.) I got in an elevator, and still there was a dead silence. ^^;;;
That was me who could not stand the silence and decided to break it.

So awkward..

I asked him some questions about him, and he answered. While we were doing that, we were on the first floor. phewwww. When we got out of the building, it was starting to rain. I wanted to get an umbrella and asked James if he needs one since I had two extra. (That means I had 3 umbrellas. lol. Don't ask me why I had so many. I don't know. hahaha.)

He was a bit hesitant, but he said okay. (Later, I found out he is never an umbrella person. He never liked carrying an umbrella even in rain. Sometimes, when the rain stopped and he did not need the umbrella, he would throw it away.) So, I had to quickly go upstairs to get two umbrellas for us and came down. When I handed an umbrella to him, he asked for my phone number. Yep. That is how it all started. lol.

He went home, and I got some snack and came back to work.

I think around 15 minutes had passed. My cell phone rang. I picked up. That was James. I smiled.

He told me he could not remember my name and asked what my name was.

WHAT??????? WHAT IS MY NAME???

I could not believe that he did not even remember my name.

GOSH... That moment, I took his name off my list.

That totally turned me off.

Yuri's First word!!!

Around 3 to 4 days ago, Yuri started saying "Dadadadada." I looked at her and said, "Dadadadada?"

She looked at me and kept saying "Dadadadada."

I was really excited, but then quickly thought, 'wait a minute. not Mamamama?'

The funny thing was she looked like she was calling me instead of James. 

Anyway,,,, This is the video that she says dadada.

Enjoy!! :)

How we met (1)

We have been together now for just over 6 years including dating and marriage.
I thought it would be nice to write how we met.
James and I once made a video about it, but we never went in details.
So... if you are interested in learning how we met!! This is a real version. hahaha.

We met at work.
I just graduated from a college, and I started working at an English language Institute as an English teacher. I wanted to save up money to go to a graduate school to the US, so I was preparing to take GRE test and work at the same time. My second week of the work, James came as a substitute teacher. I went to my classroom and encountered James who was sitting in front of students who were enjoying their break time. James was just sitting there looking at the students and spending the break time there. (During the break time, teachers come to teachers office, but he was just a substitute and he did not have his desk, so he probably just decided to stay in a classroom.) When I first saw him, he just looked so cute. Hahaha. To be honest, I never met any black person around my age until then. I was a bit amazed by how cute a black person is and how interesting for me to see him. I was just a typical Korean girl who was never exposed to other ethnic people except for white people. (Yeah, yeah, I know. I was not cool, then. lol)

I wanted to talk to him, but he always seemed not to enjoy talking. James later told me that he was shy in front of me. (cute! hahaha)

This was how we first met.

This will be a series story. So..

TO BE CONTINUED....

If you want me to keep going, please leave some comments and show some support!!! I will love you forever if you leave comments. lol.

My baby Yuri's Profile

She was born on 26th of February, 2012.

She came 2 weeks earlier than her due date.

She was 5 lb. 14 oz. when she was born.

She is ethnically Afro-Asian or Blasian.

She looks a lot like her dad. (That's what people say, but her father says she looks a lot like her mom. :))

She loves 'Tadpole song' that her mom sings. 

She wears a head band most of the time when she goes out since she does not have a lot of hair. (Many people think that she is a boy if she goes out without a flower or a ribbon.)

She loves taking a bath just before her bed time.

She loves her mommy massaging her legs after her bath.

She enjoys a car ride in a car seat.

Her name Yuri means lily(my name) in Japanese.

She always smiles at her mom when she looks at her.

She likes a camera aiming at her.

She does not like tummy time (still! She is 7 months old right now.), but she can put up with it when she is getting her picture taken. lol.

Look at her. She looks so happy! haha.

 Yuri is the love of my life.
