My new coworkers are from a town in Canada called Regina. And everytime they say it I giggle like a 7th grader because, as they put it, "It's the town that rhymes with fun!!!" HAHAHA!!

TGIF!!!!

Mic just called and, insisting he wasn't drunk, gave me a hard time for staying in on a Friday night.

So I reminded him that it's only Thursday. Yeah, he didn't drink too much! :)

But, speaking of Friday (!!!) tomorrow I will meet up with a van full of other Southsiders for a roadtrip waaay down south to Jiri san. We'll be going on what Voice describes as "about a 7 hour hike." If this mountain takes 7 hours for him to finish, I'm guessing I'm gonna be at it for at least 9. Good thing we're starting early in the morning!! I need to finish early enough to get lots of makolli in me...why else would you hike in Korea if not for the makolli and pajeon at the end???

Seriously, I'm looking forward to getting out of the city for a few days. I need a break from the grime and rudeness of Yaksu!

HA!

Received this from fellow hasher GS. The email was titled "WHY MEN SHOULDN'T TAKE MESSAGES." It totally cracked me up. I didn't even know you liked beer. HAHAHAHA!! Thanks for brightening my morning a bit, GS! Brownie is the only Pabst beer drinker I know...I hope he thinks of this next time he's gulping some down!

Idiot Moment #3,785,012

Last night I went out with Mic and Achilles and got retardedly drunk at Korea University. I'm talking RE.TARD.ED drunk. This morning I woke up around 7 with a terrible headache, that awful watery mouth/I'm about to puke feeling, and the unmistakeable knowledge that there was someone in my bed with me...
I pieced together what I could remember of the end of the night...taxi...Yaksu...said goodbye to Mic at the bottom of my hill, staggered up my hill...puked my guts out on the side of my building (unless you happen to be my neighbors or my landlord reading this, in which case I did no such thing, it must have been one of the other foreigners living here - those bastards!!). From the time I said goodbye to Mic I was alone, so who the fuck was in my bed with me???? Now, maybe some of you are used to waking up with strange people in your bed, and that's fine, I'm not one to judge, but it's not really my style. So without even turning my head to see who was hogging the blankets I totally panicked, screamed, fell out of my bed, and generally caused an enormous racket. Yup, I'm smooth like that.
I had caused quite a commotion and there was nothing from the other side of the bed...no movement, no noise, nothing. Hmmm...odd. Finally, I picked my head up (a feat in itself considering the enormous hangover I was suffering with) and saw......

HAHAHAHA!!! I went home with Jack the Pumpkin King!!!! I had totally forgotten that at some point during the night Mic had not so subtlely walked off, and when he returned 20 minutes later he had a huge giftwrapped package for me. It was a huge Jack doll! I must have been excited when I got home and unwrapped him, because I had him all tucked in safely with his head on my pillow and the blankets up to his chin. HAHA!

HAHAHAHA!!!

It's only 9:30 in the morning and already 2 things have made me fall over laughing. The first was earlier this a.m. when Mic and I were talking about Gandhi and he said, "He got really cranky when he was hungry!" HAHA!! The second was just now, when I discovered that someone stumbled onto my blog by googling "WE JUST WATCHED A SHARK GIVE BIRTH WHILE EATING TACOS." HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! WTF?!?! Hope y'all are having a great day so far, too!

My New Favorite Treat

Since moving to Seoul, Korea has managed to show me something new everyday. Actually, "slap me in the face with something strange and usually foul smelling" might be a more accurate way to put it. But today the Gods have decided to smile upon me by introducing me to banana hot chocolate from Dunkin Donuts. It's 10 a.m. and I've had 3 cups already, and I just discovered the shit 40 minutes ago. It's so fantastic!! You should go have some IMMEDIATELY! And it's healthy, cause everyone knows bananas are good for you!! Think I'm gonna go get another cup right now...

Yesterday I was forced to get a makeover. Don't ask. Now, I have sparkly purple fingernails with fake diamonds glued to them. It's soooo not me.
