I’m cataloging some photos from the last few years. Hope people don’t get sick of my face too soon. I realize I’m probably using Tumblr wrong, seeing as I haven’t reblogged a single thing nor has my Tumbularity ever passed 50, but whatever, I do what I want.
Shrug.
We went on a little date last night when original plans fell through. I took him to some new places I discovered in Hongdae. At Vinyl, we got vodka cranberry in a plastic pouch that reminds me of a Capri Sun. Then we went to a beautiful Middle Eastern style wine bar, ordered a bottle of red, smoked some hookah, and had a plate of cheese and prosciutto while cuddled in a mass of fluffy...

In our spare time, Nick and I have been playing a ton of Super Nintendo games. Over the summer we beat Mario RPG and just last week we finished Yoshi’s Island.
Our game of the moment is Zelda: A Link to the Past, but today we will Turtles in Time, my favorite game from elementary school, because I had a bad day.
We will be ordering a pizza as well, as that is the only...
My name is Risse. I am a twenty-three year old girl from Seattle living in Seoul, Korea.
Less than a year after I graduated from university, I decided I needed a change of scenery. In March of 2009, I packed two suitcases and caught an eleven hour flight out to my new homeland. Over here, every day is a new adventure.
Pictured above is my sweetheart, Nick. We are practically grafted at...
