scrapbooking 2

1. this is a rosary chain/necklace from kwang bok, sweet wonderful k boy i dated.
2. i bought this at a vodoo kitch shop while i was in new orleans with terry and nikki.... wait, no i didnt! i bought this from some shop in san diego! mamma... something... i bought a ton of stuff to decorate the office for African Student Union. I left most things, but kept this.
3.why did i number this candle? it's nothing special, i bought it at a local shop.
4. i dont know why i bought these stupid wooden coasters.
5. my homegirl kanisha brought me back this lovely woven sculpture back from her trip to ethiopia. it's 3 elephants around a tree.
6.why did i number this tea pot? who knows. i like best to drink black tea with loads of milk and sugar, as i did on my trip to london many many years ago.

my friend edi

my friend edi made these beautiful sculptures for me. they're carved from stone and i love them. edi is a brilliant sculptor from zimbabwe and currently works at the africa cultural center in.. paju? south korea.

trash

i got guilted into volunteering at some school somewhere. they are kids that come from single family homes, or are low income, none have ever been to academy, and have had no exposure to cultures outside of korea. their english level is very low, visuals are the way to go, so i made this chart with their names to add stars to everytime they did something good. after i finished, i cleaned up and thought the trash looked really pretty, so here is a picture of it.

cleanliness

just an example of how i live here in soko. i bought this refill thing a while back, and i couldnt remember what it was for. notice my note on it which says, "body wash.... or hair conditioner." im pretty sure it's body wash. i could ask a korean for help, but i wont b/c im fiercely independent.
