i got some new shoes, and right away i schooled some kids at least 10 years younger than me at basketball. nice. if there's one thing kids are good for, it's to make you feel better about yourself, particularly when doing physical activities. and for me, given that i'm not a big man, i need to go up against kids much younger. ones that i can push around.

in other news, i'm learning more korean because i'm now sitting amongst the koreans.

mah-shi-da means cool.
