¼ö¿äÀÏ ¾Æħ: Àß Áö³»¿ä?   jal jinaeyo?   how'r u doin'?   i'm ok.   i was just lookin' @ the pix that the beautiful kaela hwang took @ this past wknd's l.a. koreatown ÀåÅÍ jangtuh (bazaarish marketplace) festival.   we now better understand the wurd ÀåÅÍ jangtuh.   we're used to the phrase "ÀåÅÍ ¼ø´ë" jangtuh soondae (jang-tu soondae).   ah... so it's like the korean equivalent to state fair corn dogs or coney island hot dogs.   in case u don't know ¼ø´ë soondae's a (very delicious) korean rice, noodle, pork blood sausage.   it's made by stuffing an intestine lining, which is how all real sausages r made neway, so don't get 2 grossed out, man. (  well heck, if they ever come up w/ a vegetarian version'f ¼ø´ë soondae, then i s'ppose i can live w/o the intestine n' blood, but it'd better be really good n' really realistik!   neway, i saw the pix'f the ±Í¿©¿î Áøµ¾°³ °­¾ÆÁö gwiyuhoon jindotgae kangaji / the cute jindo puppies.   yah, they're cute.   ±Í¿©³×; ±Í¿±ÁÒ.   we both wonder what sooni looked like as a puppy.   i'm sure she was cute.   last ntie, as we left the űǵµÀå taekwondojang, sooni carried in her mouth the dingo brand rawhide chew bowe that she didn't eat while i was inside.   i guess she didn't wanna eat while i wasn't there.   she's like that sometimes.   well, as we were leaving, she then wanted to eat it cos i was there.   however, we needed to go.   thus, she carried it in her mouth.   this gurl that was sittin' w/ her bf or guy friend outside'f the È£ÇÁ hof 1 door down (or do u say 2 doors down) exclaimed "À̻ڳ×!" ("ibbeunei" / beautiful!)   true, she is.   i'm not sure, but i think that gurl's a waitress @ that È£ÇÁ hof.   what's the name'f that ÈÄÇÁ hof? i think it's »çãÀÚ sochatja.   uhm, what does that mean?   *shrug* i think it could mean, "let's go look 4 cows"; or it could mean sumpthin' like "cowboy."   we haven't been there yet since it changed names (maybe also owner) 1nce 'gain.   that È£ÇÁ hof's always changin'!

yesterday, i drove by the new korean plaza on el camino real in santa clara, rt in the heart'f koreatown.   make no mistake, y'all; the stretch'f el camino real in santa clara n' sunnyvale, it's definitely koreatownkorean chamber'f commerce's request or not.) i think the new plaza's called t&h plaza or sumpthin'; i 4get.   neway, it looks really nice!   that's the thing, korean have not only been takin' over el camino real; but they've been seriously beautifying it!   they're not turning it into ne kind'f "korean ghetto," no.   it's becoming classier!!   it's 1 thing if the korean merchants were just snatching up ¢heap, rundown commercial real estate to make a quick bu¢k.   however, no... they're really building a beautiful community, a beautiful neighbourhood, a beautifully healthy bizness/$hopping distrikt w/ distinkt character; sumpthin'f which the city can be n' ought to be proud.

neway, what else's up?   this morn, i quickly hit up the sunnyvale skate park.   on friendster just now, i quickly created a friendster group called "sunnyvale skate park morning crew."   i honestly don't expekt ne1 to join.   ppl on friendster r 2 old, mostly just the yuppie crowd.   well, aktually... those r the types that i find in the morn @ the sunnyvale skate park, huh?   hrm... however, we're mostly like closet skateboarders... sekret skateboarders.   i believe that on myspace, i can find tons n' tons'f teenagers n' maybe even just teenagers @ heart who openly proclaim that they r skateboarders.   well, i only skated 4 like 0.5 an hr.   that was a short skate session!   i woke up 2 late this morn.   it's been harder to wake up.   *sigh* it's fall now!   °¡À» ¿Ô¾î¿ä.   the sun rises later.   'twas really cloudy when i awoke this morn; but the weather report speaks'f like 90°f weather.   that must be far inland, like in concord or gilroy, rt?   it's been much cooler out here in the real bay area.

my new knee pads n' wrist guards r s'pposed to be here netime.   i had a package slip from the usps yesterday.   it was addressed to "beno hwang," but i'm sure i had the package delivered to "bernard hwang."   strange.   neawy, what's funny's that the amazon.com delivery tracking system sez that the usps tried to deliver the package @ midnite yesterday, but i wasn't there.   heh, that must be some glitch in the procedure or system.   ha ha.   i'd really like to get those pads!   on mon morn, this 1 dude taught me to do li'l frontside pregrabs.   i'm catching my 1st air on vert (sort'f).   well... i mean, i catch vertical air on a snowboard... but i'd never down it on a skateboard b4.   well... heh... it's not like i'm launching out'f the bowl over the coping now or nething... no, rather, i'm doing some really, really unimpressive hopping @ the bottom'f the transition.   it's uhm... nuthin' to watch.   however, he pted out that 1) it's not 2 hard n' 2) if i fall, i'm already crouched down, so it doesn't hurt much.   it's funny... this guy... he gave off / emitted this really "christian" vibe.   sumpthin' 'bout him made me think he was like a pastor or sumpthin'; a really nice guy.   it's funny how some ppl just give off this vibe that indicates a certain religion.   like, there's that ol', middle aged dude that comes in the morn, who... well, his look n' behaviour just scream out "mormon."   like, i grew up w/ mormon friends cos 1) i lived by a mormon church n' 2) i briefly lived in idaho, which is near utah... n' maybe somehow that fakt cmed to cause mormons to gravitate 2wards me even after i moved to cali; so i really don't mean that in a disrespektful way.   like... yah, sumpthin' bout him just screams "mormon."   maybe it's the fakt that (the 1st time i saw him), he showed up w/ a big litter'f kids n' his wife n' mom or mutha.in.law, rt? *shrug*

[later] Àú³á ÀÌÁö¸¸ ¾ÆÁ÷µµ Á÷Àå¿¡¼­: wow, time sort'f flies.   i need to get out'f the office.   @ lunchtime, i joined some'f my ol' cowerkers from the college program to exploit a free ameriprise lunch @ athena grill.   i, as well as many others, ate the $11.95 steak.   *sigh* i need to reduce my intake'f 1) fat, 2) sodium, 3) sugar, 4) simple carbs, 5) bad cholesterol...   i need to increase my intake'f veggies!   my diet's been bad this wk w/o kaela.   i'm tempted to buy a salad 4 dinner 2nite.   i worried 2day 'bout my frequent wee.weeing, which i understand can be a sign'f bad prostate health, rt?   however, it's not that i show up @ the white, porcelain urinal n' can't oui.oui.   rather, i'm oui.oui.ing plenty cos i must've drank almost a dekalitre'f h₂o 2day!   that's good to know, but why'm i so thirsty 2day???

what can i do 2nite?   1) attend sach's last turbo kick box (tkb) class b4 his 1.month sabbatical (700p, which's 2 soon, @ the fremont ave, sunnyvale 24 hour fitness); 2) attend will's turbo kick box (tkb) class, 730p @ my usual east arques, sunnyvale 24 hour fitness; 3) a movie w/ a free small popcorn cos'f my amc moviewatchers card; 4) try to hit up the sunnyvale skate park w/ my new pro.tec knee pads n' wrist guards, which i picked up from santa clara's mission station u.s. post office after lunch; 5) go buy new classical guitar strings to replace the 1s that mysteriously broke recently on my guitar; 6) $hop/brow$e @ fry's elektroniks; 7) gro¢ery $hop @ trader joe's, maybe buy a salad...   [later] ok, well, i'm still in my cube.   i just stood up to c out the distant window n' saw that the darkness'f nite has fallen 'pon sunnyvale, thus no twilite session @ the sunnyvale skate park.
