A Little Bit of Home

Sorry for the delay in updating! Korea always keeps you busy in random ways. I'm actually taking acne treatment while I'm here since it's so much cheaper and more professional than the places where I live! So I feel very pampered and fresh. :) But here are some snippets of the past few days. :)

In Korea, cats sell cell phones! (not really)


And these paintings were on the wall of a delicious Korean restaurant!

"Let me help you with that ma'am."

"And let me help you with that, too..."

"And I'll leave him to you."

That's my dad swiping a piece of heaven in front of the camera lense.

There he goes again - his chopsticks moved real fast so you can barely see them.
The Bacon is called "Sahm gyup sal" in Korean. :) It was truly delectable - I think that means tasty? And I'm sorry if you're a vegetarian! Please do not be disgusted by me! I can't help myself!

This is fresh off the grill (FOG?-asian inside joke, now you'll just think I'm crazy if you don't get the pun D:) garlic and a spicy-ish bean sauce (called "Dwehn Jang" or "Ssam Jang")? I have no clue how to describe it, but you just needa know that it's gooood. It tastes especially great with Korean BBQ and/or lettuce. :)

This one's just for fun. (This one is not edible...)

Song of the moment -
Baby I'm Yours - Arctic Monkeys (it's so sappy I love it!)
Lucky - Jason Mraz ft. Colbie Caillat

PS. I turned on auto-play but I really hope it doesn't scare. Please please do let me know if it bugs you! (I think it might be funny because the song starts "do you hear me? i'm talkin' to you." hehehe).
