Food..food...more food =)

So, as I mentioned in a previous post, all of us are starting to freak out a little bit since we've already been in Seoul for almost 8 months now and it feels like there's so much we still haven't done.  Especially with the weather warming up a little bit, we decided to kickstart this weekend by eating at the restaurants we've been craving but haven't had time to check out.

Rain..rain..please stay away...

For as long as I've been in Korea, there hasn't been too many rainy days, but I still can't stand them.  All you people who love rain.....you're crazy LOL. The weird thing about Korea is that no matter how light the rain is, you will see everybody on the streets holding umbrellas.  You have no idea how many times I left the house without one and people look at me like I'm crazy because I'm only wearing a hood in the rain.  Needless to say, I've learned my lesson: never leave the house without an umbrella, even when it's barely drizzling.

Freakin' Geocaching..

You may or may not know that pretty much every Sunday, Claudia and I go lesson plan at our local Zoo Coffee.  Obviously we spend a lot more time chatting, web-surfing and the occasional facebook stalking.  This past Sunday, Claudia read about our fellow Canadian Epiker, Holley and her boyfriend's Geocaching adventures.  Claudia worked her little magic and suddenly now we have a brand new adventure to look forward to.  Seriously..this has probably been the single most exciting thing I've done yet!

White Day

Double post? =D

So March 14th was "White Day" in Korea and it's another "couple's day."  Seriously, to be a single Korean living in Korea..it must be extra depressing.  As far as I know there are 3 Valentine's Day-type days in Korea and White Day is one of them.

Korea...you're so awesome....you boggle my mind!!

So..if you guys have read this post, you know that Korea has some amazing and cheap clothes/shoes/accessories, you name it.  Claudia and I grabbed dinner at Sadang Station today and HOLY CRAP..we found the best deal yet.

Big Bang - Big Show Concert 2012

On the same Friday that Ace left for Toronto, Claudia, John and I had bought tickets to see the Big Bang concert.  I was so conflicted..I was sad that Ace left..but I was also pretty excited about the concert.  Similar to the feeling I had with the YG family concert..I was just meeeh about it until I got there..people there just gets you SUPER excited!  Honestly..by the end of the concert..whether it was the heat, the screaming VIPs or  Big Bang themselves, I started to feel like I was drunk without the alcohol LOL.

I'm very happy that they sang a lot of their old songs too.  Me..being the bad fan that I am..only knew two of their new songs from the Alive mini album that they just released, buuuuut I liked them =P.

None of the YG concerts I've been to allowed cameras buuuuuuuut...I kiiinnnnddaa..maybe...sorrrrta snuck mine in......lol..I managed to get some good shots..but then a man came over and said something in Korean..and I would like to say I was being smooth and pretended that I didn't understand..but I ACTUALLY didn't know what he said even though I could assume from the way that he looked that he wanted to take my camera or delete my pictures.  Whichever the case may be...he failed..soooo here are some of the not-allowed-to-be-taken pictures that I have......I'm horrible...I know
