Busy, busy weekend

Happy Belated Lunar New Year!

Because it was a Korean holiday on Sunday we had Monday off. YAY! :D So I made plans with my coteacher and sort-of-guide Francia for the whole weekend. I don't have pictures from the weekend because I'm silly and don't have a camera...yeah ...I'm going to try and swipe some from a friend...but I can tell you all about it now!

So on Saturday I went shopping with Francia and Bora(one of my coteachers) to costco and a giant department store called Homeplus. It was a ton of fun seeing all the bulk items from America and other places. Homeplus was fun as well because I got to compare a Korean department store to what I can recall of American ones. I could have spent hours there just looking at all the different products and doing some people watching. So much craziness! Let me just say that I will never go shopping on a weekend again! It was so busy I lost Francia and Bora multiple and only found them again because Francia is very tall and had a purple hat on.:)

Later that night Francia and I met up with some of her friends in the Doonsan(?) area of Daejeon and went to some bars and clubs. So much fun! I met so many foreigners and got to watch a rugby game!

Sunday, after skyping with my parents I started to clean my apartment. bleh. Then Francia facebooked me and asked me if I wanted to go to Diana's(Dee-ahn-nah not Die-anna), her sister's, apartment for a tea tasting with the other girls we went out with Satureday night. After an hour journey via subway, bus and walking we ended at Diana's apartment and had about 8 different teas along with cookies and cheesecake. After, we made plans to meet at my apartment on yesterday for brunch. We made the hour long journey back and I finished cleaning my apartment the best I could.

Monday I had 5 people over to my apartment, 4 South Africans and 1 American. Francia made us French Toast, eggs and bacon. We also had some kind of cream stuffed Korean bread and cheesecake. The South Africans ate their French Toast two ways, savory and sweet. I had never seen someone eat French Toast with cheese and bacon on it but it looked very tasty. I chose to have the berries on mine because it reminded me more of home. We played Uno and LCR(Left, Center, Right) and talked, a lot. They were really jealous of my apartment and it made me feel very blessed.

Hopefully I'll get a phone with a camera soon so I can take many pictures to share with y'all. Annyonghi kashipshio!(Goodbye!)
