Hello everyone.
I’m not here right now. That may seem like a contradiction, since I’m writing this, but what I mean is that I am not at home when you are reading this (probably). Ah, the magic of scheduling ahead. Right now, I am probably on an island in Korea by myself. Which island, you ask? I’m not sure. I plan to go to a couple, and since the ferries sometimes run in accordance to the weather conditions, I sometimes have to change my plans. However, I will take pictures and post a few here. I plan to do a lot of reading and writing and thinking.
Now, to the update. For those of you who missed it, this is an update on the post I wrote a while ago, The Woman Who Wants to Meet Bush. It was about an interesting woman who stopped me in the market near my office and asked me to invite former US President George W. Bush to come to Korea to meet her. I did send an invitation to an email address I found for him. And a couple days later, I got a reply back.
Well, I am not really surprised that he isn’t coming, it was still nice to get a reply. If I ever meet her again, I’ll mention it at least.

I remember the lady’s face clearly. This is an incredible job done. Cheers and keep writing!

Thanks. Yes, she was very memorable.

Wow, they actually replied

I know, right? Some poor intern is in there, answering all the emails probably.

I’m shocked his office replied. Wouldn’t that be funny if Bush did, in fact, meet with her. Stranger things have happened…

Well, “ask and you will receive”. Somehow I think she’d make him uncomfortable, but I’d love to see a photo of the two of them together.

Wouldn’t that be a kick! I expect to see it on your blog. It’s only a matter of time.

That’s nice to receive a reply even if the answer (as expected) is a no.
February 22nd, 2013 at 9:11 am
Yeah, it was more than I was expecting.
February 19th, 2013 at 2:09 pm
I love that you actually sent it. And that they replied! This may have made my day.
