Melanie's Mostly Writing

I had a long weekend as we had Monday off to celebrate National Foundation Day, marking the legendary founding of the first Korean kingdom. I had big plans for the three days but I’ve ended up doing nothing much. We went to the Two Hearts bakery cafe again to stock up on bread. We went out for Korean bbq but aside from that I did nothing but watch movies. Last night we watched Unabomber with Russell Crowe.

I feel like my motivation to do anything creative is at an all time low. Even just writing a blog post seems like a monumental effort. I wanted to create something, then I didn’t do anything. I just lay there watching movies. I don’t know what to do to inspire myself. Maybe getting out in nature more, now that the fall weather has cooled nicely. I have to find motivation and inspiration from somewhere.

    Today we went a drive to a local forest for a walk, and a look for chestnuts as they are in season now. It was beautiful, full of pines and chestnut trees, quiet and green. There was only one other couple there. I love the forest and fully believe it is good for your mind…

  • Of Sweetness and Superposition

    A few weeks ago, before the previous teachers left, we went to Outback Steakhouse for lunch together. I ordered chicken salad. The seasoning was off as the chicken was too salty. The thing that I couldn’t get over though was how sweet the cheese soup was. The bread and butter were sweet too. I have…
