I got a splinter caught in my vulture claw

June 10, 2010

Not even joking. I was erasing the wood framed whiteboard and all of the sudden, after rubbing up against the border “씨발 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!” I didn’t say it of course, but you better believe I was thinking it! 1/4 of an inch wood chip stuck between your finger and claw nail isn’t a pleasant feeling — BUT I got it out with a tweezers. The end.

I also have to get a root canal. Another root canal. That will be my 2nd root canal by the age of 25! Which brings me to my next point; it’s my birthday today!! Sound the trumpets, shake those nipple tassels, and pop the champagne! Then again, maybe not…. Q’s birthday is June 2nd so we had a combined birthday get together along the river in Dongducheon last Friday. A great place to eat cake and drink red wine with the poop aroma steaming up from the stream. *Cue Chantel Kreviazuk’s sappy It Feels Like Home to Me. Honestly though, I step of the train after a day in Seoul, take a deep breath (breath in turdy smells) and ahhhh I’m home! ANYWAY, we had a great night with great friends and I couldn’t have asked for much more for a birthday celebration. On Saturday, Q and I rented an AMAZING room on the 14th floor of the W Hotel overlooking the Han river. I neglected to take any photos, so once I snatch some of Gyumin’s, I will post them.

I apologize for this blog being all over the place, but it’s only going to get worse as I haven’t written in four ev ur. So sorry. Here’s a recap of what has went on in the past 2 months or so.

The kids playing some catch phrase along the Dongducheon river. Fun fact: 똥 (ddoong) in Korean means crap. Hmmmm…Seoul’s best toilet for 2000!!! Ohh wait… Seoul’s best toilet for August of 2000!!! I knew you’d get it!

I ran another 10k race and it went swimmingly. Theme: Superheroes. Fail: John and Amy.

Here are a few photos from the 4th annual World Dj Fest. Here are people drumming and not DJing.

Here are 2 random girls who were taking my picture. I took their picture back. They love it.

Fist Pumping= fun.

About to eat the Beondegi (Silk Worm Larva) at the Lantern Festival.

Tasting the Beondegi.

My school said they got a really good deal on the place.

The first time I’ve ever been in a subway car alone. It’s the little things, really.

Q with his birthday cake. Election day this year happened to fall on Q’s birthday which means no school! We went to *Everland for his special day. *see one of my first posts.
