Text: Also, y'all missed English lunch during which [student] corrected Kerry for saying octopuses instead of octopi, and it was like Kerry had been training her whole life for a student to make that mistake. Total lay-up, and my favorite part of the day. Merriam-Webster Merriam-Webster O @MerriamWebster Happy World Octopus Day! octopi = from the belief that words of Latin origin should have Latin endings octopuses = an English ending to match its adoption as an English words octopodes = from the belief that bc 'octopus' is originally Greek, it should have a Greek ending

me: so octopuses…

student: do you mean octopi?

other professor: oh no you didn’t

student: I TAKE IT BACK

me: so, in English, we borrow not only WORDS, but MORPHOLOGIES, and since octopus is a Greek word borrowed into Latin borrowed into English…

I made a big batch of Singapore noodles (actually a HK dish), and I think the moral of this story is if you put enough curry powder in noodles, it covers up..a lot a lot of culinary sins

Re-Wattpad JK vs How he actually is

Some K-ARMY made this very fitting graphic

It's been tested and disproven, whew

It's..pretty wild

There's a museum inside one of the excavated mounds that is awesome! Highly recommend!

I remembering reading the placard in Korean when I was there and being like..am I having a reading comprehension problem...??

They call Gyeongju the museum without walls because there's history everywhere!

With a bit of adventurous bus riding, there's also some great hiking there on some mountains with Buddhist iconography carved into rock faces

Seokguram and Bulgugksa are also around there if you're interested in Korean Buddhism. Nice light hiking and beautiful religious art and architecture

Bell of King Seongdeok - Wikipedia

Wait..is this the one that's supposed to have a human baby in it?

It could just be the sound of the bell being rung

That would be kinda cool

A man dressed as a king next to a red bapsang being served a big meal. A woman in a hanbok is placing a bowl in the table.

It's called a 밥상 (bapsang)! Traditionally, it was a little dining table you used by putting your meal on it and carrying it to where you were going to eat.

Plus 4 hours of online class. Lol.

I think it's good for me to remember what this is like. It helps me stay nicer to my students.

I ended up taking two separate Korean classes at once, and I have to write an essay and practice sentences for 10 사자성어 and give a presentation about Korean Arbor Day this week. So it's gonna be..5.5 hrs of homework. Plus pre-/review. That's a whole 3hr undergrad class's amt of work for a week, lol.

It will be very angsty but also swashbuckling. Ship cannons that shoot Smeraldo flowers that melodramatically dissolve to dust mid-air

The album concept is Joseon pirates in love that are stuck in a time loop

Wishing is for peasants like us. He is the King and the Boss and a Rockstar and a Lobster and if he wants something to happen, he makes it happen..

But also..like all of Suchwita..

I bet those elderly bats dream about their younger days when they would go clubbing every weekend.

I feel exactly this rn

It makes no sense how much activation energy it takes to brave the sensory transition

NO NO NO YOU DON’T
