Here's a little write up of my birfday weekend!

On Friday, I was presented with three, yes three, cakes in celebration of my birthday! the first was from Colleen, Alyssa's mom who I work with. So the kindergarten kids got to have a little party. The kids even sang me Happy Birthday, it was really cute! And the second was in my afternoon class, two of the parents somehow found out it was my birthday and got a huge cake. And the last one was from my director, they wanted to have a little party right after work, but alas I had to take the KTX to see Daniel. So I decided to take the last cake with me, and Daniel and I were going to eat it. For the most part, Korean cakes look fancy, but don't really taste that great, usually dried out. But still it is customary in Korea. to celebrate the anniversay of one's birthday with lots and lots of cake.

So I went to visit Daniel, and I gave him his present right at midnight, and he loved it! I was happy, and it fit too, and looked really good on him. I only saw it online, and I was glad that it looked good in real life. It has this cool MC Escher rhino print on the back, and on the front it has the Hounds Tooth design transform into rhinos. I kinda wanted to keep it for myself actually. Daniel got me a present from Africa, but it hadn't gotten there yet, so no present for me. And what a doofus, he special ordered me flowers, and forgot to pick them up. But it really is the thought that counts.

That day we didn't really do much, I made him birthday pancakes because pancakes are one of his favorite foods. And we mostly just stayed in, slept, we got food at one point. At night though, we went to Jinju, which is where Daniel used to work, and I got to meet all his friends. On Sunday he was playing in a soccer game so I got to watch that which was really fun. Most of the other players where English, so it was funny hearing them curse out loud in their Britisg=h accents. It was really cold, but it was fun to watch. And after that we all got dinner together, then we drove back to Daegu and I took the train home. Nothing too exciting, but I enjoyed it!
