Harry Potter was eventful. I realized that Koreans relate to Harry much more than we ever would. Hermaine is the epitome of their high school life. Saucy, overly studious and repressed.

All I want for Thanksgiving is...a Thanksgiving. And maybe sleeping to football after eating so much food. And maybe family and friends playing football. And pumpkin pie. In Korea we say "choketa" or I envy you.

I made it back. I've crossed over into communism, if only for five minutes. The queer thing was that those five minutes were not my scariest in the DMZ. Nor was the fact that I could see a North Korean soldier eye me from binoculars less than 100m away.
