After korean conversation exam and having mexican food for brunch with my classmates I met
anti_tortoise at Apujeong to go to Micky's gelato place.
And then we went to stalk SM building.
Just sat there for about an hour freezing my ass off. Walked around trying to find socks to prevent my toes from falling off but couldn't find any store that I could afford (apugjeong, anyone?).
So we decided we couldn't take it anymore and went for some warm warm coffee to DD.
I seriously needed to pee so my instict guided me and for the first time in 4 months I was able to use those toilets that are more like a whole in the floor than a toilet !!!! I asked her what she was doing later and she said she was going to hang around in Hongdae, maybe have dinner in Yesung's restaurant if she could find it.
I hadn't heard from Anthea yet so I decided to tag along.
We got to Hongdae and had no clue where the place was so we walked around for a long while in which i felt i was going to die of cold and was the first time I was actually glad to go back to mexico (I CAN'T PUT UP WITH 3 MORE MONTHS OF THIS WEATHER).
We finally found it and walked in, I crumbled into the chair (dying like dying) and she took the couch thing side. So my view was only Taylor and the wall. Taylor was like: I think he's here... OMG I think he's HERE. OMG HE IS RIGHT THERE!.
I was like, bitch can't you see i'm dying? (I really was, I swear).
First Yesung's dad comes over and he asks in korean if we can speak korean. I tell him that I can speak some. Then a waiter comes and Taylor is still freaking out. She asks him in english if Yesung is there. He says yes. I ask him in korean if Yesung is there. He says yes. Then another guy comes over and Taylor asks if she can meet Yesung. They say yes but choose what you're going to eat before. Then Taylor pulls out her SJ cd and I realize I have nothing I can give him to sign... For a moment I though maybe he could sign my polaroid camera, just like Lee Minho signed my ipod, but then I thought maybe I can take a PICTURE with my polaroid camera and have him sign THAT.
He comes over and Taylor tells him she's a big fan and asks him to sign her cd. He asks where we are from. Taylor says America and I say Mexico. I LOVE KOREAN'S PEOPLE'S REACTIONS (especially celebrities) WHEN I SAY I'M FROM MEXICO. He was like: MEXICO??? :O He muttered some word I didn't manage to understand, maybe he meant TACOS? but I swear I kept hearing SATOS or SACOS or something like that. He gave up on me because I was just like 'WHAT?' and he asked Taylor if she knew kobe bryant (why so random bb?).
When I first saw him I thought he was really tiny. He is very skinny and has fabulous skin. But when I stood next to him he is considerably taller than me so he's not so tiny after all.
He took pictures with us and then signed my picture and I was happy. He went back and I think some other people at the restaurant got pictures too. I called Thea and freaked out and she couldn't believe it.
She was too far away and with other people so she said she couldn't come.
She called back later and asked me if I could get a polaroid of him and get him sign it for her but I told her he wasn't taking pictures anymore and I didn't think I could do that. So I tell her: Do you want to talk to him? She freaks out and says she'd love me forever if I can do that for her. Taylor looks at me like 'are you really going to do that?'.
Until then I had been trying to keep my cool, rational girl mode; leaving Taylor the role of crazed creepy fangirl, but I got up my chair and broke my mode.
I went up to where Yesung was sitting chatting with his family and I told him (all of this in korean):
me: excuse me, my friend.... wants to talk to you....
ys: i'm sorry (i felt really disapointed that he rejected it but i could understand because i was interrupting him and his family)
me: oh yes, i'm sorry (ready to walk away)
ys: *looks at his family members* i'll answer. *takes my phone* in english? (to his family)
he spoke something with thea that i couldn't hear and handed me back my phone. i bowed and thanked him and went back to our table.
We finished eating, food was good but I couldn't really enjoy my meal knowing Yesung was in the same room as us...
Taylor said before we left she was going to go up to him, thank him and take a video of it. I was trying to go back to my rational person mode so I was like: Yeah. you do that... I'll wait outside
So we both thank for our meal and Taylor goes up to where YS is and I go outside. YS's mom sees me and she's like: IT'S SO COLD, Come inside!
I went inside and she held my arm and she was like: it's so cold, why aren't you wearing a coat like her? why are you wearing this? AIGOO! EOTTOKE~ she was so sweet, really.
taylor finished doing whatever she was doing and we both went outside. Both of his parents saw us off at the door and thanked us for coming, I bowed to them and thanked them and said goodbye. They were all smiles.
