Korea Diary - 002

Mar 20, 2011 16:53

Guess where I am. I'm not in Seoul, but in Degu. Bullet trains are hella fast, oh yeah. :D



1. So I went to the one of the hot spots for young people in Seoul: 명동. (And I apologize for my inability to make proper romanization cuz I suck). Holy crap, can we say the streets for Japanese tourists? Also I think I heard like four different languages - English, Japansese, Chinese, and then Korean. I feel kind of giddy knowing that Korea grew its tourism.

2. I tend to avoid PC cafes, because people keep smoking in there. Phewaaaaaaa. And I only need one smoker in my life, my grandma. But I shall find a smoke-free PC cafe. For sure.

3. I keep getting motion sick in cars I first said car sick but then realized how stupid that sounded, I don't know why. I think it's because the roads aren't flat.

4. It snowed a little earlier in the week. Still I have never seen snow in March. So rather shocking.

5. Another shocking thing: Koreans are actually trying to help Japan! I knew you guys cared deep down ... or idk, they say even hate is form of attachment.

6. So Korean guys wear make up. Maybe I should start taking better care of my face ... I'm almost twenty but haven't even bothered with a lipstick.

7. So I came to Degu to meet my Dad's family ... I haven't seen them in ten years. It's really awkward. I don't know who's who. @_@ And why is this baby walking into this room while I am typing this.

8. LOL Korean dub Inazuma Eleven. The puny names are bad enough, but Fire Dragon became North Korean team and ... oh man, I almost died laughing.

9. This is really out of order. Yeah.

How are things in States? I hope the West side didn't get hit too badly with the stuff happening in the Pacific. :O
