Weekend

Saturday, got together and had Pho.  This place in our building.  Realllly good food.  Plus they give you your leftovers in tupperware, microwave safe!

Then off the Psycho Bar.  It's for foreigners.  Yay English speakers.  We played free pool.  There were 6 people there? It was 8pm, so it's pretty early and it's their holiday weekend.  So one couple there was special.  White dude, Korean girlfriend.  She drunk off her ass, but still wanted to drink.  Mel caught her walking face first into the glass door.  Beauty.  Then she sat near us, spilt one of the girls drinks.  She walks over and the boyfriend says, sorry she spilt some of it.  Then the guy went and got her a new beer.  So those 2 now move on back to the bar.  Where she has trouble sitting.  The other girls are in mid-convo and I was playing pool only to look up and see this.  Her hand pulling his shirt down and her licking his GD NIPPLE.  WTF.  Holy shit, I don't think I have ever been so disgusted yet so entertained at the same time.  Drunks.

Then onto Noribong. Well McD's first for McNuggets! YES! and 7/11 for beer.  This Noribong was pretty damn sweet.  It has crazy lights and a little stage if you want to sing. IT WAS GOOD. Until the man came and took away our booze.  Here they want you to buy it from them, in our town BRING YOUR OWN!  But I think we were there for 3.5 hours or so at least 3.  We paid for 2 hours, but they give you free time. It's pretty awesome.

Got home about 3.30.  Not too bad at all!

Sunday, basically I went to this big electronics store. 9 stories plus 2 basement floors (which were E-Mart).  So each floor was a different type of electronic and then it was all individual vendors.  So strange, but good insofar that you can play off of them to get a better deal.

So we were looking for Super Nintendo games and old consoles.  Found nothing.  So the girl who brought us said it was her first time here so maybe we should go outside and look around.  Now it was Seoul, but I forget which area...sorry.  Anyway, we are walking around looking for shops with games or PC in their signs.  We found one but it was an arcade.  

So we cross the street and walk.  There are a bunch of people crowding around oil barrels filled with wood and fire. So we're like what's going on.  We keep walking and I look to my left and say "Guy's there's a bus crashed into the side of a building and all it's windows are smashed out. I'm a little scared." So right after this, which is semi covered up with large cardboard stands in a way... we see this stand with several Korean man's photos.  So we assume it's a vigil and book it.  We get across the street and I take some photos, you can't see the bus but you can see the building is smashed.  The best part hasn't even occurred yet!

So the girl who brought us there said, "Let's go down here." This small alley, which is cleanish. So we saunter down the road, unaware of the horror/amazement about to behold our beloved eyes.  What is it we see? Oh these tiny little all glass rooms on the ground floor of the buildings.  How odd.  Looks like little beauty shops.  They have a little chair to sit on, a tv, a short couch, and even a little vanity.  Oh weird the light in there is red.  Oh man, why is there a girl sitting on the chair. OH SNAP IT IS THE RED LIGHT DISTRICT. YEA SIR. So I take two photos.  But none with ladies I did not want to get my ass handed to me.  As we were walking down and figured it out some other hooker (LITERALLY THIS TIME!) came to check it out.  Cause it was English speaking.  Yea.  Dressed in a very interesting fashion.  Saw it was 3 ladies and BOOKED IT.  hahah I believe Mel has a photo of 3 Korean men walking down the street behind us.  Yeeeeaaah.  NOT EVEN THE BEST PART!  So we get out of this small and short alley only to see the building at the end.  Police Station, yes.  So I get photos of this.  All of it is awesome.

So it's late and we get back into the building and have this great little snack.  Then up to the electronics store again.  And we did find the Super Nintendo games.  Sim City, Donkey Kong Country (I LOVE THIS GAME!) and something else.  The girl who brought us has the SNES system, which she has us over to play.  So we go to E-mart and find a better foreign food section than in Sanbon.  And by foreign I mean food from Canada-esque.  Awesome to see Heniz.

Anyway, we get back to the train station and our guide she is lost. hah it was funny to me, because I don't know the subway much at all.  But she was getting flustered, because you could get on 4 different lines from here.  So she stopped a group of non-Koreans, who she hoped spoke English.  Lucky for her this group of Mexicans were rad and helped us out.  They were a little confused too haha, but friendly thank god!  So we got home and had delicious fajitas.  Oh fajitas.

Monday was boring. Laundry, Internet and a new show called "Demons".  Then dinner with the girls.  

Only two days left of my holiday :(
