5.2.12

1. My parents got into town tonight. I haven't seen them in almost a month, and in the Namkung family, a month might as well be a year. I am so excited to have them in Santa Barbara for the weekend. Not only to take them to new restaurants, walk the beach, and enjoy the beautiful weather, but because no matter how old I get, I always love being with my mom and dad!

2. Tonight, I co-facilitated the first session of a Positive Psychology Stress and Anxiety group--it was a HUGE hit and I left feeling energized, optimistic, and inspired. I was absolutely amazed by the openness of each member and their willingness to learn and to contribute to the group. Oh, and it didn't hurt that I have a bad-ass co-facilitator by my side ;)

3. Beef sukiyaki from Kyoto (my new Japanese obsession). I grew up on Japanese food, and ever since moving to Santa Barbara, it's been hard to find the good stuff...the real stuff...the authentic stuff. Kyoto (the SB version) is still faaaaar from the real deal, but it's the next best thing!
