Well, it's 10:36PM on Sunday night and I think it's time for another update. My weekend up to this point, has been very interesting, to say the least. Friday night, I found myself drinking with fashion designers, male models and a hair dresser in what I believe is called Apujeong... which is apparently the "Hollywood of Seoul". At some point, after a short visit to a Noray Bong, the elite crowd that I was hanging out with had to go home... Being that I paid 35 bucks on cab fare to get to this place, and that I planned to end up in Hong Dae on Saturday, I decided not to go home... So I roamed the streets of this area, looking for a train station so that I could just take a train to Hong Dae once the trains started running again... This search landed me in even stanger situations... Hanging out with a 40-something year old American creep.... having an even older Korean man in a suit grab my crotch.... lots of interesting conversations with Korean girls...
...At around 7am, I found myself in Hong Dae park, where I had planned to sleep until the afternoon... Much to my surprise, Paul was still in the park and asked if I'd like to crash at his place... So I took him up on his offer...
....Anyways, this story is getting way to long for my short attention span, and I feel that it's going nowhere. The bottom line is that it has been a rather crazy weekend.... and having not showered or even been home for a couple days, I ended up smelling like a B.O., soju, dog tongue, sweat, rotten beer factory. And I realized just how bad it was when a girl on the train actually held a scarf over her face in hopes of defending herself from my offensive odor. I don't think the scarf helped much, as she ended up just moving to the other side of the train at some point.
...and I guess that was my weekend.... Here's some more older pictures... I hope to eventually get all these old ones posted, so I can move on to newer ones...
