Highlights of my Day... Sunday, January 21

1. Jumped on a bus headed to Seoul and did some shopping in Insadong with Kim Tae.. didn’t see Jenn this time though… :(
2. Since my family delayed Christmas and is waiting for my return, I went in search of the perfect gift. My quest lead me to numerous little shops where I was constantly offered various samples. I must have gone to the bathroom like a hundred times!
3. I did it… I finally did it. I found some butt-kicking gifts! Today Kim Tae and I finally found gifts that are special.
4. Scored some free hugs! Every time I come to Seoul I always see random people carrying around those “Free hug” signs. So, today I hugged two cute Korea girls. The second hug kind of sucked; she was too skinny for me to give her a good bear hug. But the first girl, she was so sweet and we giggled as we hugged each other.
5. I love you citron tea!!! Wow… Koreans really know a lot about good teas! Today Kim Tae and I sat in a super cozy, super cool tea house in Insadong. It was packed with plants and so I felt like I was sitting in an enchanted forest. Even the lights on the ceiling branched out from an artifical tree.
6. Taste-tested some of the yummiest (is that even a word?!) food from random street vendors.
7. With my countdown to Canada now in the single digits, I can’t stop thinking about Canada! Just think, this time next week I’ll be sitting in church with my parents listening to a full-fledge, English-only sermon.
8. Movie night at Cineplex Sambu consited of Mi Nam and me watching “Must love Dogs” (note the irony there…ha, ha, ha) and Kim Tae falling asleep 10 minutes into the movie.
9. What’s with my buddies and their over-the-top jealous girlfriends?!!! I tried to arrange a dinner with my old friend Ryan in Canada. He told me that’s cool but not to call his house when I’m in Canada cause his girl will have a freak-out. And then there’s Lee (yes Lee, I’m fully aware you’ll read this)… he told me his girlfriend insists on coming along for lunch. Thanks but no thanks. I’m not cool with being interigated by your jealous girl who deserves a slap of reality. Furthermore, a lot has happened this year and I’m not about to talk about personal things with your girl there.
10. A part of me wants to meet up with you silly men with your even sillier girls… I’ll show up late, show up looking super good and dressed to impressed. But instead, I’ll pass. I always thought highly of you dudes but this is sad. We’re not in high school anymore and so this isn’t cool. It’s time to grow up and get a REAL relationship! I always thought you deserved something so special, BUT, if you’re making excuses for your girl, then well, you deserve nothing else but each other!!!

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Do you want a free hug?

QUOTE OF THE DAY...
I love hugging. I wish I was an octopus, so I could hug ten people at a time.
