Korea...

Jun 02, 2005 20:16

It's been two years, but this place seems almost exactly the same. The only difference is I'm now living in a different city called Seoul, the capital city of South Korea. It's much bigger than the city I previously lived. It takes about... an hour to get anywhere here. Theater, restaurant, cafe, etc.. you just name it. To go anywhere decent, it takes about an hour by subway. Taking subway is really fun, by the way. I lost way three or four times by now, and it's.... well, amusing. Actually, it's not that pleasant around six or seven in the evening because the subway gets all packed up with literally thousands of people. Every seat's taken, and all I can do is to stand up clinging onto something for the entire hour or two it takes to get to my aunt's house. Then again, I get to see all these different Asian girls in there. Looking at girls is the only way to spend an hour in subways. Seriously. Trust me with that. Of course, that's for guys and... possibly lesbians..? Hahaha... haha.. ha. -_-;; sorry.

Food is great too. Although I get to eat same food over and over again in my aunt's house, once I step outside I can eat whatever I want to eat. I'm loaded with money my aunts and other relatives gave me, so money's not much of a problem for now. Besides, there are tons of cheap food out there. It costs around only 3 bucks to have a decent meal at a restaurant. Of course, some exported goods are shockingly expensive. For instance, Starbucks coffee (9 oz.) is like 3-4 bucks. Unbelievable, right? I totally agree with that. I think it's outrageous.

Hope everybody's doing well.
