Hi mom! (the only person that would still be looking at this thing...) Now I'm living in a little town in a sub-artic region of Quebec! (look at old posts of Aug 06- Aug 07 for Korea info. Cross Canada and States trip is June and July of 08.) Enjoy!

Shift the Blame
I'm not sure how we got on this topic, but my co-teacher's and I were talking about our general feelings towards Americans, and George Bush. At one point I cracked a joke about blaming American's for something ignorant I'd done in Korea (for example that day I had forgotten to change my outdoor shoes to my indoor shoes because I was in a hurry). After I said it I was instantly regretful, thinking the joke would not be well-recieved. But Mrs. Lee, my super-nice and always polite co-teacher replied "Koreans do the same thing. When they've done something bad, they just say they're Japanese". Hahahahahahahahahaha. Is it wrong that I found that really funny?

not at all... I wouldn't be surprised if the Chinese did it too... most East Asians (except Japanese peopel) hate the Japanese.

Yeah, I haven't met a Korean that didn't hate Japanese people.
except for a Japanese guy I met who had a Korean girlfriend. I don't think his parents were happy about that!
