Breakfast and Safari





SAFARI BREAKFAST

Made another hearty American breakfast yesterday. I need to get on-board with the protein situation, losing weight I don't want to loose...Anyways I was on the subway today and this kid got on the train wearing his school uniform. He looks like he's going on a safari.. Check it out.

My pops booked his flight for Dec 8-15. Pretty excited to show him around Seoul and catch up.  

I am picking up a small scooter in a few weeks so I can commute quicker. Something around 500 bucks.  class is about to start. I'm out...

Student's quote of the day... Hilarious

"I don't Like Obama because he is black..."

Jeeez these kids are sorta racist. They think every black guy in a picture is Obama and some say stuff like that.

Anyways here are some updates.

  1. My bathroom sink works, check.
  2. I cooked my first meal today. (Kimchi scrambled eggs - Pretty good; made with a different kind of veggie, like a leafy thing) I will post when I know what it was.
  3. My landlord was very nice, she saw me making eggs and kept saying pop, pop, pop. Kyle told me it means rice so I said OK. She brought up the Rice and Kimchi with it.  She made both. Jasmin rice with some beans (purple rice) and the leafy kimchi. Yummmm!
Pics coming soon!!!! I am getting my Cell phone tonight! WOOOOHOO!!! Samsung Galaxy 2

Skype for freeeeeee!

A new week.

Just a few pictures I took on my iPhone. Friday - today!



The view from our rooftop!


Spicy chicken stick


Thought this was funny. Lots of "interracial marriage" here. Lol that sounds horrible.


Sweet Mercedes construction truck. The wheels were so close together.


Obstacle course outside emart. Emart is a massive store with just about everything. There were tons of cell phone companies promoting their phones with really loud PA speakers and megaphones. They love those things. Some guy drives around our neighborhood selling fish with his blaring at 8-9 am. So obnoxious. But kinda funny


Seoul tower from our roof at night


Went out in hyungdae (Hongik University area


Late night snack. Or early morn. Interesting kimchi/ham/cheese sandwich.


Kyle had the ramen. Good choice




On the way to ball hockey. Still are from our games.




Nesquick in korea! I think...




1000 KRW snack. It's a waffle with some kinda butter like stuff and honey I think. I'm gonna try it with chocolate next time. It's damn good. Right in the subway station



Really good an cheap iced coffee. You grab a cup of ice that is prepackaged. Then you pick a flavor. I picked original. It's like a caramel flavor. Really good




I get lots of messages like this from my students. Mostly the little girls. They are too cute. Just received this one tonight

Off the RMT (Rocky mountain Tavern) for wings. See ya soon!

Cheers,
