Snoopy!









In celebration of the 55th Anniversary of Snoopy, a design exhibition of Snoopy was held in Seoul this summer.
Many of the design artists are Japanese: Yayoi Kusama, Ruriko Murayama, Chie Morimoto, Masataka Kurashina, and many more. The three bottom photos are all pieces by Yayoi Kusama. Before coming to Seoul, the exhibition was presented in Japan. The artistic twist to good old Snoopy brought smiles to all the visitors. Afterall, don't we all love Snoopy?

My Japanese Workbook From Korea






Above are photos of a Japanese workbook I purchased in Korea. I love the colorful pictures and the layout of the workbook. I've been self-teaching myself Japanese through this workbook. It's different learning Japanese in Korean as opposed to learning it in English. This workbook won the 2007 award for the Best Japanese Learning Book and it was the #1 topseller for Foreign Language Books. Working with such a coloful book full of cute illustrations makes learning Japanese even more fun!
