kimchi festival (part 2) - the aftereffects

This is part 2 of a 2-part post. Part 1 will be posted as soon as I can get Chris to send me some of the photos... Chris, Angela and I went to Gwangju for a Kimchi Festival last weekend. Part 2 is going to be short. It is simply to say, when one eats too much kimchi, one may feel very very ill for one or two days. One's body may not know how to process all the fermented cabbage. One may curl up in bed and sleep for 13 hours straight. One may not be able to keep any food or liquid down for a 24-hour period. And remarkably, one may still be able to teach 11 classes over these 2 days. However, one is probably not able to do much else, besides wish they were dead.

That is all.
