Friday Ocotober 16th











Hey everyone!! :D These past week has been crazy fun!! Last Thursday was the only day I had to go to school, because of Midterms! :D It was a pretty boring day, to be honest. It took me so long to pack for our mini field trip for the Rotary that weekend! but you should have seen Ana's suitcase!! It was huge!! It barely fit in the van!! LOL. Friday morning we had to get up a little bit earlier to get start traveling. I love car rides. :) I slept most of the day to travel to Jungju. When we got to the hotel, I was impressed. It felt really homey. Then we went out for dinner. They put live octupus in the frying pan in front of us! :o It was scquirming around! Oh gosh, I lost my appetite really fast! After dinner, we went to karokee!! :D I love Karokee here in korea! The place was really fancy, they sent us two platters full of fresh fruit and snacks. :) Afterwards, we just hung out in Ana and my room. It was really relaxing and fun to get to know the kids even more. I have to admit we went to bed kind of late, but we didn't pull an all nighter. (Thank god!) I would have been dead the next day :) The next day we did so much site seeing. We visited a lot of temples and visited a cool town. They had condom ice cream!! :) (Inside joke with Hana) It was so gorgeous! Then we went to a Korean museum. It was really interesting!! Then we went to a place called the Romeo and Juliet place. They have a pretty similar version. Then we ate at an amazing Italian restaurant! They had a lot of foreign foods also. Mashed potatoes, tortillas, pizza, pasta, etc!! It was a great day!! :) That night we traveled to a different hotel. It wasn't as good as the first night. It looked like a hotel room, but the good thing was that we had great left overs to eat! Again we hung out with the kids that night :) In the morning we traveled to a temple where they said a girl drowned a king with her rings. :o it was really interesting!! I met a ranger guy from America.. he was an intense military man!! Afterwards, we went to our chairman's grandfathers grave. I felt really privilaged to see it. He's been apart of Rotary for 30 years and this was the first time he did that. It was so beautiful where we went! After that we went to a dinasour museum!! It reminded me of the Mulwakee museum. It had robotic fighting dinasours! Outside is a little zoo. They had rabbits in them!! I was like only in Korea they have rabbits in a zoo!! lol. Afterwards, we ate at Loitera!! then drove home :D GREAT WEEKEND!! Monday was great too! Busan is known for the Pusan International Film Festival (PIFF) and we got to go!! Monday was the first day! We saw an italian love story. It was really good! Just so you know they had english subtitles :) Tuesday, we went to our tutor. Jarrett invited ana, kathy, and me to hyaundi for PIFF too. Of course we went!! but the tickets got sold out!! we couldnt go with jarrett and unyoung! :( (his host brother) but it was still fun to get to know Kathy better. I like her now! i found out we have a lot in common. i was just so stubborn to start off with. We saw the movie Midnight Cowboy. Anyone ever heard of it? It's a 1969 film with the guy who plays the father in Meet the Fockers. I thought it was pretty good but also the weirdest movie I've ever saw. You'll understand if you saw it. Wednesday my school went on a field trip to PIFF/APEC/Hyandui Beach. It was so relaxing and fun!! I took a bunch of beautiful pics!! We found a mexican restaurant that day! Ana was so happy! lol. Then we saw a Romanian movie. WORST movie ever!! I wanted to fall asleep throughout the whole entire movie!! :D Fun time. Thursday, ana, grace (friend from school), and I went to Nampodong!! She told us to go on this 3D rollocoaster ride. It was so cool!! It kind of hurt me though. LOL. Then, of course, we ate at McDonalds :) We went eye shopping too. It's so hard to just look at the clothes!! I want to buy! Then we saw a really great film!! It's called Mother. It's a korean film. It was so intense! Too bad they wouldn't let grace in the movie cause she was too young :( they never asked ana and me's age though. Today, was pretty normal. We went to tutor, but instead of class we went out to a korean restaurant and then Baskin Robins :D yummy! Then we went home! Ok tomorrow is a firework celebration. I promised Unyoung like a week ago that I would go with him and Jarrett cause they were going alone. Ama told me last night that they were going and I mentioned about Unyoung. They got so pist. I was like WTF. I just mentioned it and you told me two days before!! I already had plans. Then Unyoung called and said that his mom could go then. I told ama and apa thinking that they would be happy now but they were just like why did you lie? I was like WTF why would i lie!! I want to go! I don't care if its with you or friends, just be happy I'm going. Anyways, can't wait till tomorrow I'll take awesome pics I promise!! :) TTYL.
