2. Spent most of my day doing absolutely nothing and then spent the other part of the day kicking my own butt over it. The whole point of waking up early today was to get my long list of things done. Today was definitely unproductive.
3. Yup, that 4-foot long beating stick is definitely a part of my training regimen and I’ve got the bruises to prove it.
4. Added a big bump on my head to my already throbbing butt bruises when Junior Mint accidentally head-butted me during pad work. As a result, my teeth bit down hard and so I spent the rest of training trying to choke down the blood from my poor innocent tongue that got the brutal end of the head butt.
5. Proved to Buff Boy the Original I was quite the girl when I met up with him wearing a mini-mini jean skirt with my tall brown leather boots, a cute black t-shirt ,and my posh ¾ length black pea coat. “See, I AM a girl. No guy wears a skirt like this!” I told him.
6. Plan for the evening was dinner and a movie. We headed out for cheese tak galibi (chicken) at one of my favorite restaurants. Leave it to Buff Boy the Original to come up with the most bizarre dinner conversations. He and I have always been brutally open and honest about things but I’m sure our conversations would disturb many. I’m not too sure why he talks the way he does to me and not to others, he even admitted that he talks to me different.
7. Our dinner conversation ended with a couple of strange and deranged conclusions:
- Mi Nam would be a gay man if he were human.
- Someone should forewarn western men about the personal grooming practices of most Korean women here (and lack there of them)
- Note to self: it’s better to go home with wet hair from the gym than to risk finding out what the “hair” dryer is really used for.
- Apparently most Korean women don’t really grow leg hair… lucky ducks!!!
8. While we were walking over to the movie theater, some woman crashed right into me and so my small cup of coffee he and I were sharing splashed all onto her jacket. She turned to yell at me but upon noticing that I wasn’t Korean she stopped her speech. I, however, told her in Korean “Hey, you have to be careful!” Buff Boy the Original got a good kick out of this and noted that it was only because of my nationality that she didn’t give me an earful. Note the ironic twist though with me commenting to her in Korean… hahaha.
9. Checked out the movie “Slumdog Millionaire”… it was awesome!!! I really loved a lot of the various techniques they used in it, the flashbacks, subtitles that weren’t presented in the usual bottom-of-the-screen fashion, and how they used the whole underdog coming out on top idea. My favorite part by far was when the kid got stuck in the outhouse and was faced with possibly not meeting his most admired celebrity. That was hilarious… hahaha.
10. I had Korean class the next day, scheduled for 8am and so I after the movie I had to call it a night. He walked me home and then we said our goodbyes. Mi Nam, of course, was waiting at the door for me when I came home so I scooped him up and off to beddy-bye we went. No sooner did we hit the sack but I got a text message. It was Pro Star asking me if he and his girlfriend look after Mi Nam some day this weekend. He had told me last time we met about how his girlfriend lets her dog go ape style and run the house. "Her dog just needs a friend" he texted me. I told him I could help but didn't think that it meant lending them Mi Nam. A "friend" isn't what his girlfriend's dog needs, that's not the problem. The problem isn't even the dog either, it's the girlfriend. She may control Pro Star but apparently the dog is much smarter than to let her control it... hahaha. Anyways, I'm not going to agree to Mi Nam being "friends" with her wild child dog. First and foremost, Mi Nam pukes his brains out every time I try to put him in a car so getting him out to Suwon would definitely be a problem. Moreover, he lacks in social experiences and so he doesn't do well with other dogs or people for that matter and he's not a brave dog but is rather sensitive, so any kind of yelling at him or picking him up freaks him out. Pro Star tried to reassure me that he'd be extra careful but I still refused to agree on account that if anything ever happened to Mi Nam while he was in his care I'd kill him.
