The Killer of Three Faces

I know that people in our day and age do not read stuff without pictures anymore...somehow that still doesn't make me want to add pictures. Honestly, they are so overrated.

And, it says something about me, that I keep writing inane stuff and not adding illustrations. It says that I am just not that into pictures.

Tomorrow I am teaching a class on Ishiguro's "Never Let Me Go." I started making notes and kept writing "Ish" for Ishiguro, and then read that "Ish" is what his friends called him. That made me happy...but really it's not that special. I think I am just a little obsessed with his work, so I actually feel excited to go and teach tomorrow.

My day class starts at 8 am tomorrow. That means I have to wake up at 6 am. 6 am here is when the light outside is blue. I make and drink way too much coffee so that by the time I get to work I am hyper and talk too fast. My students have even commented on my coffee consumption, but it's only because I have to make sense at 8 am when I talk about books!

So, the serial killer hasn't been captured yet, but all kinds of murders are being attributed to him or now they say that it could be them. There are 3 distinctively different photorobot portraits. Is that what they call that in English? If not, then you know what I mean. Apparently a shoe maker had his throat slashed in a shopping center called Elegy. And people are remembering strange run-ins with this and that person who might or might not look like the three versions of the killer.

Also, I found a Korean grocery store near Dordoi Plaza and bought pickled sesame leaves, kimchi, packs of ramyun, and chrysanthemum greens. I was happy.
