My 2004 Work Schedule
Speaking of hagwon days, I recently found my old PDA (Palm Treo) and imported my schedule to iCal.

Korea lost to Switzerland early this morning. Four years from now, I bet we won’t be seeing shirts with "2002 Again Corea". Thank god. I think what Korea did in 2002 was amazing, but replaying the same soccer games over, and over, and over again was getting old. The party is over… boo hoo hoo. [...]
