Deeper Shade Of Seoul: 06/24

Ladies,

If it's warm enough to be walking around in open-toed shoes and a spaghetti strap tank top, you don't need to wear a scarf. During the summer a scarf is a rather unneccessary fashion accessory, and it just looks silly when paired with a tank top. Kindly stop wearing them together, it drives me mad every time I see it.

Thank you,
Jes

S2H3 - PT's And Colonize's On-Out

Sunday morning Mic and I headed down to Youido for the hash. We had briefly debated skipping it, but it was PT and Colonize's on-out so we decided it would be really bad form to miss it, especially since both of them have gone out of their way to be nice to me since my very first day at Southside. Trail started in Youido Park but it wasn't long before we were outta the park and headed into the city. Wish I could tell you more about the trail, but after about five minutes Mic was like, "Hey, is that a Baskin Robbins over there, behind those trees, in the opposite direction everyone else is going?" I figured he owed me some ice cream since (1) it had been about 2 days since he showed up at my house with some, and (2) he had just "accidentally" punched me in the jaw during a brief wrestling match on the corner. After our Baskin Robbins stop we were so far off trail we couldn't find any hash marks, so we wandered for over an hour in the direction we thought we should be going in. We thought wrong, of course, and made it back just as everyone was circling up. Circle was good, we had tons of virgins (interpretive dance! interpretive dance!), tons of down-downs, and lots of great songs were sung. Southside isn't gonna be the same without PT and Colonize This (who's gonna randomly belt out, "IF I HAD THE WINGS OF AN EAGLE???)...but I'm sure hashing in the gulf will be a thousand times better with their arrival.

I Love This Class

This picture cracks me up for reasons known to only Kevin and I. There's alot of things that occur throughout the day that only he and I laugh at, and it makes me like my job a little more. It'll suck when he leaves and I'm surrounded by Canadians.

Here's Ate Ball and I in our couples' outfits. HAHA!!

Weekend

I had a good weekend. Friday night I did absolutely nothing! It was soooo nice! Came home from work, went for a short run with a few hill repeats and then I showered and curled up in bed with the AC on full blast, put in Pan's Labrynth and did a few of my kindergarten progress notes. Highly recommend that movie, btw!

Saturday morning I had to work, so I put my time in there and left as soon as I could. I had plenty of things I should've been doing (cleaning, laundry, finishing my progress reports, working out...) but I didn't feel like doing anything that wasn't fun so I got ahold of Joel and we met at The Outback in Itaewon for lunch. Afterwards, we wandered over to one of the antique stores to check out a gorgeous chest he had bought recently and was waiting to have delivered. Then we wandered some more, this time back to his apartment for a few minutes before heading over to Bliss to help Teddy get ready for his birthday party. It turns out helping Teddy get ready meant I was stuck hanging wallpaper on Teddy's new addition while Joel sauntered back home to shower and make himself pretty! I was glad to help, though, and the new addition looks awesome! Everyone should go to Bliss immediately and check it out!

Joel, who has impeccable timing, managed to reappear about 2 seconds after everything was finished so I sat down with him and had a well deserved beer. Later that night we were joined by Franki and Ate Ball, and I'm not sure how it happened but Joel and Ate ended up demonstrating how to pole dance for us! Between that and the "Krispy Kreme" conversation I laughed until I nearly cried. Had a few more drinks and alot more great conversation, tried to prove that I was capable of being serious (I failed at that attempt, btw) and then ducked out early. I was home by 12:30...my mom would be so proud! Here's a few pics...Enjoy bitches!
