| In order to raise funds for a mission trip I'll be going to in September (to Japan), I will be giving music lessons - guitar, piano, bass, drums, voice, or whatever musical help I can provide you with.
I'll be charging $20 *minimum* for guitar & piano and $15 minimum for everything else. On top of the minimum, I ask that you pay according to how valuable you thought the lesson was. Every single penny will go straight towards th e missions fund.
Please go to www.junhopark.com/lesson for more info.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for reading!

| [n.k.f.p.c. 2007 family retreat] - "v e r i z o n"
We'll be taking a deeper look into God's call upon us to love God & to love others. These two go hand-in-hand and are to be inseparable from each other.
I hope you guys will be able to make it out to Lake Geneva with me next weekend! Let me know if you have any questions about the retreat!

| So I've been in the process of getting my house on the market for about the last month or so. It's not like there's a TON of stuff to do... mostly cleaning up, organizing, getting rid of the clutter, and some minor repairs. And I suppose I could've taken care of all this in about a week. But I don't particularly enjoy cleaning and it's been a challenge getting it done. Just today, I spent about 3 hours cleaning one single room. And it still looks a bit messy. I don't think I'm very good at this cleaning stuff...
Anyhow, here's something I've been reassured of during this whole "get-the-house-ready" process -- I want to live in a small, inexpensive home... probably a small condo. I don't think I ever want to live in a big house with a big yard and a gazillion things to take care of. It's too much work and I can think of a ton of things that are more worthwhile than taking care of my house. I just don't think it's worth the money, time, and effort. I used to long after living in a sizable house with a big yard and a pro-level recording setup... however, that idea doesn't seem nearly as appealing to me anymore.
While on this topic, I've gotta say this: I'm totally convinced that living well-below my means is an excellent way to live. The single biggest reason why I so badly want to sell the house is for financial reasons--my own as well as my parents'. In many ways, it's been like carrying a gigantic & hairy gorilla on my back and I cannot wait until I can finally kick this gorilla off of my back. I want my finances to exert as little of a control on my life as possible and I think this is the first big step I need to take.
Earlier today I thought about how cool it'd be to throw a party and invite a great multitude of people once my house is sold. I'll call it the "so long, gorilla" party. I think I'm gonna need to keep daydreaming about this party to get me motivated about getting the house all ready.

I just gotta say that Ed Raynor is da man! He showed me how to fix up a hole in the wall. That was one of the bigger tasks on my to-do list and I'm so glad I got started on it. This fix-your-home stuff is actually kinda fun...

| This is just awesome!
I simply had to put this up on here cuz it's SO good. I truly appreciate the thought that was put into this. =)
On a slightly different note, I'm trying to figure out what the best way to improve my Korean writing skills is. Actually, include Korean speaking skills as well. I just emailed my friend in Korea in Korean and I think it took me close to an hour typing up a single paragraph email. It was fun in the beginning and then on my 10th word, I was just exhausted. I had to look up a number of different words to make sure I spelled 'em right. I know I still got at least a few wrong... I hope I can take a trip out to Korea next year and by the time I get out there, I want to be able to have an easier time conversing with the people there. It's difficult to have meaningful conversations when talking becomes such a chore due to my Korean being so rusty...
Any suggestions?
