So since I had free time and being more flexible, I decided to head up to Austin to see some friends I hadn’t seen in years!
I got hold of Minkyung who was visiting her mom in Kileen, and went to see her. She is now a mother of two! 😮 Her one-year-old daughter was sleeping so she came out with just her 4-year-old daughter. She is very cute and looks and acts just like her mom.
After that, I came down to have dinner with two Young Nak members: Taeyoung and Sungsoo. Taeyoung is still as well-behaved as ever… and still calls me “ah-juh-ssi”! LOL. I suppose I deserve that since she’s 20! 😛 Sungsoo, who is now 23, was becoming a very thoughtful man. For those that know him, I knew him when he was in high school and has always had attitude with him. So I was very pleasantly shocked to find out he’s been teaching Sunday school, taking kids on mission trips and such. God does do miracles after all!! LOL…
Then, I went to visit the newlywed, Sunhee. It happened that Chancety was in town as well, so I got to see those … along with Sunhee’s wife. It was good just hanging out and catching up. I was just glad to see him doing well…
Then thanks to Joe John, I had a place to sleep for the night! 😀 After church at good ol’ AKPC, I had lunch with Young Ji, young Hwa, and Hakbum, and good ol’ time catching up on everyone…
Afterwards, I tried to see if I could visit Daniel and Amanda but they were busy. But thankfully, Karen noona and her family were free! So I went to visit them in south Austin and had good time catching up sharing about everything from raising kids to Korean culture.
I realized that it really isn’t that far from PS’ house to Austin! It’s only a little over 2 hours! And I wasn’t even speeding!! Anyhow, I hadn’t seen some of these people for 5 years! When I visit Dallas, I will be seeing people that I hadn’t seen in longer time than that!! Yikes!
