After graduating from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Science in Architecture, I made the decision to move to South Korea with my girlfriend Amanda, so we could experience a completely foreign culture and country while enabling us to reflect on our recent education, and make plans for our future.

We have worms

Thankfully the worms are not in our body, but sadly enough they are in our plants... :( Oscar and Clarisse. Oscar was our first 5,000 won plant ($4.47) and Clarisse was our second. You can thank Amanda for their awesome names. Oscar had been doing so well after we first added him to our family, that we decided to get beautiful Clarisse, with her white flowers and all. Unfortunately, they have both been dying over the past week or so. Earlier tonight we found tiny worms in Clarisse, which we think are also poisoning Oscar. So, after dinner at about 9:30, armed with a spoon and a flashlight built into my pocket knife, we set out to re-pot our two plants with some fresh soil. We couldn't find any of the good black stuff, so we just used what was in the ground across the street, which is more of a brown dirt than black soil. Hopefully it does the trick and Oscar and Clarisse survive!
