Are You Human Too? is a Korean television SF show that tells the story of an android taking the place of his human twin, the heir to a chaebol (rich family) conglomerate. Nam Sin (the human) is badly injured during an assassination attempt and ends up in a coma. While enemies plot to kill Sin and take over the corporation, his robot alter must step into his shoes to hold his place in the hierarchy, and learn what it means to be human.

I discovered this show via a bunch of fanmade videos on Youtube that really intrigued me. Sadly I couldn't find it on Netflix, so I invested in the DVD version. It's going to take me a while to watch all 36 episodes, but so far it's been definitely worth the price. Seo Kang-Joon, the actor who plays both the android and the human, is totally convincing as two different versions of the same man. Lots of fun and action and romance, and some interesting special effects, too.

You can also exchange recipes, too. My neighbor did this once and it was wonderful. Favorite Recipe Cookbook : For my favorite person I found a copy of my favorite cookbook from a vintage bookseller (yes, I am that old) and went through it making notes on all the recipes I used, how I tweaked them, etc. Ornament: There are probably a million free tutorials on how to make your own holiday ornaments, so do some research online. I like to make hanging pomanders , which smell heavenly and are biodegradable after the holidays. Mug Rugs: If you sew, making up a set of mug rugs is simple and easy; I add these every year to my ...

Journal Find

This is a page from my 2010 poetry journal. My handwriting isn't the best, so I'll transcribe it: If my heart survives to tell all the secrets kept inside it will be an abalone shell in which the beauty did reside. But I think I will always be lost to the tides that rage in me . . . humbling and polishing . . . I don't write many self-portrait poems, but this one isn't too embarrassing. A bit overly dramatic, but the girl I was eleven years ago went through some tough times. I'm in a much more peaceful place today.
