since I owe Liz a blog...

I'm here right now at the gazeboish part of our building's mini park. We've been here in Seoul for about a week and but I've never had time to blog until now. Well, so the experience. It's a mixture of ooohs and ahhhs and wtfs. I need to learn a little Hanggul to be able to get through the rest of my stay here, me thinks. So far I've survived with sign language and a lot of smiles. But yeah everything is pretty convenient here. Learning the subway and bus routes aint as hard as I thought.
I've had of course my first soju and Kalbi by my 2nd night here; my first noribang on my first weekend. Got a new kick-ass camera too for a good deal. hehe.We've been to pretty crazy parts of the city, including an American bar where people sing their national anthem at midnight. The weather was sunny cool but it's getting colder and colder at nights since fall is approaching. I've a feeling though that the honeymoon period is waning and I'm starting to miss home. I mean this place is pretty cool. Everything's hi-tech, and there's a lot of people to see. But there's still no place like home i guess. Di rin pla masaya ng malamig ng walang kayakap haha.
