Hobbies: I don't want to leave this world with any regrets. So anything I think about doing, I just try it. At least once. Anything.

I like those Lost in Translation style karaoke rooms down in Koreatown. Then when someone does a pisspoor version of "Here I Go Again" you can just gong em' and move on to your Rick Astley song.I like working out, and I really like the feeling you get, right after working out, when you feel like youre making progressI like the 99 Cent Store. It's democracy for under a dollar.I like doing stupid things to fight the system.I like the Howard Stern show and I have no idea how anyone can get so offended over the things he says. Also I think Artie Lang is a huge boost to the show for whatever thats worth.And I like my car. A 1970 Dodge Swinger. My car doesnt go fast, its only got open windows for air conditioning and it doesnt really handle well. It steers like a cement mixer, it corners like it's about to flip and the seat belts are mostly ceremonial. Put simply, just over the sepulveda pass is like the chase scene from Bullit.Which is one of the reasons I like it.IF you want to read more about my time in korea, go here:http://www.studenttraveler.com/mag/05-02/teaching-korea.phpOR here, though scroll to the bottom for the first story:http://www.rileyinkorea.blogspot.com/
