People keep asking me how my 4th of July was. Here's your answer -
I asked Jin if he was going to
wear red, white and blue on the 4th. He replied, "No... I mean, why would I?"
The 4th of July isn't a holiday here. Americans don't celebrate the independence of other countries, so why would Koreans celebrate ours?
The 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays because it's summer and fireworks are cool and it means my birthday is coming up. So, it was unfortunate to miss out on all of the festivities back in the states.
Really, this was the first year that I was the only one who cared about the 4th of July. Whatever, I painted my nails red and wore a blue and white dress. That's as "Murican" as my 4th of July got.
Hopefully all of you back home in the states had a more successful celebration!
