Seoul: The Karma Boomerang

Still in Seoul for a few more days. Still kickin' ass.  The other day I was so happy to meet with a friend I hadn't seen for ages, Jon--I didn't even know he had come back to Korea to live, but was happy that my other friend (Eric Bovee) suggested we meet.  Jon took me to this crazy indoor mall/fun center in a newer part of the city.  We played arcade games and then I succumbed to the fast food advertisements on the wall and went to this fast food place called "Lotteria".  I had a burger that was half bulgogi, half shrimp tempura.  It was special. 

That night there was a bit of drama at the hostel.  This German guy got kicked out for "overusing the facilities".  I think it was karma getting back at him for posting craigslist ads to take pictures of models at coffee houses.

Yesterday I went to Yong-san where there is a massive mall renowned for electronics.  At first I wasn't impressed--it just looked like a Macys had decided to sell dvd players and tvs.  Then I discovered it was 10 Macy's stacked on top of each other.  I adventured the 8th floor looking for a cell phone (its been tough without one).  No-one spoke English, but the word "Prepay Phone" goes a long way.

So now that I finally have a phone, I called up some of my friends from my Redbana days.  I went out to dinner with Jenny and her fiance in Itawon last night.  Best Bi Bim Bop ever.

because I'm a foreigner, err alien, we did the ET thing

I was hoping this girl would move to the left so it would look like she was on the bike

I forgot what this is, but felt like I was lacking on exterior photos.
