A simple lunch that turned into a party O.o lol

Hello Everyone!!! In the spirit of keeping up my resolution here's another update :) This past Wednesday (1/30/2013) a group of us went out to lunch and  it was a lot of fun. Now somehow it turned into a mini party get together thing...this is what happened...닭갈비 (Dalk Galbi) is one of my favorite foods here in Korea below is a picture of it...it's delicious!

There's chicken, cabbage, onions, rice cake, cheese filled rice cake (this was added), and sweet potato all in a spicy red sauce

I mentioned to my friend Bianca that I haven't had any since returning to Korea. She has a half day on Wednesdays, meaning she doesn't have work until 730pm, so we decided to go on Wednesday. She then said she would invite a few friends, however that somehow turned into a group of 11 people (including myself) going to lunch lol

Our parade to the restaurant lol

 After this wonderful lunch we all got ice cream and went to Nori Zone. Nori Zone is a place that's sort of like an arcade. Well there's this ride there called 디스고팡팡 (Disco Pang Pang). Only three people from our group went on it...but it's basically this ride that spins around and bounces around as well, which is why I didn't get on it lol...it was crazy and the ride was 20 minutes long!

Ice Cream Pops!

 Once the ride ended we decided to go to a dog cafe though by then we were down to six people since the others had to go. The dog cafe was a lot of fun but the drinks were terrible lol but there were many cute doggies!!!

 Before we left we played a game called Halli Galli. Everyone has cards that are kept face down (the number of cards depends on the number of people playing; we each had 9 cards) and there's a bell in the middle of the circle. The cards have different fruits on them and a different amount of that fruit, for example, there's a card with 4 plums and another with 2 strawberries. As you go around the circle each person flips over one of their cards. Everyone has to have their left hand on their left ear and use their right hand to flip the card. You go around until there is 5 of one of the fruits, an example is would be a card with 3 limes and a card of 2 limes and the other cards are different fruits means hit the bell.

The first one to ring the bell with their left hand gets all the cards. The person who gets all the cards wins, but we just started a new game once someone lost all their cards (Usually even if you don't have cards you can try to get back in the game if you hit the bell first). It's a really fun game, but we made a punishment for the losers (we played two games) which was they had to go up to a complete stranger(a guy) and tell them they were handsome but do it in Korean and Aegyo style (cutesy).

Needless to say I had a very eventful Wednesday which was great since lately I've spent most of my time in the house. 안녕!

참치 (Chomchi)

Somehow I forgot to mention that I have acquired a kitten. So August 2012 my two friends (Lavinia and Nicole) were on a bike ride on a rainy day where they came upon a small sickly kitten. They put her in Nicole's backpack and took her to the vet. She was malnourished and dehydrated and the vet guessed her age to be about 1 month old. Lavinia took her home, however in a week she was heading back to the US for 3 months. She asked me to kitten sit and long story short me and the kitten bonded and I got to keep her ^_^ She has been named Chomchi (참치) which is Korean for tuna.

She is a cutie pie though a bit psychotic lol she is very needy for a cat and is very verbal. She also likes to randomly go nuts and run around the whole apartment. She likes to lick people and chew on things. To be honest she acts more like a puppy than a cat. Oh and she climbs on EVERYTHING...I've found her in the light fixtures a few times -_- I don't know much about cats and definitely not about kittens so this is an interesting experience so far. Here's a video of when I first got her

Now for cute kitten pictures!!! Be ready to be blown away by cuteness lol

In the lights -_-

In the lights again...

Sunday (1/27/2013) Sledging Drift!

Yo! Here's Part 2 of my weekend :) so as I was having lunch with my friend Bianca she invited me to go sledging with her and some people she met at the International Party. I asked her what the heck sledging was and she had no clue and so we decided it must be something like sledding...we weren't that far off actually. What you do is sit on this sled and you have two ice pics which you use to move around on a lake size patch of ice. I know it sounds strange but it was a lot of fun. It's easier to explain if I just show you lol so I had a vid but it's not uploading therefore here is a link to Bianca's Vlog on it:

My Friend's Vlog on Sledging :)

While we were sledging there was a family there and the two little girls were actually students of the Korean guy that was with us. There was also a man there with his son. The kids were soooo cute! The mother of the two girls was very nice and bought us lunch and the little boy gave me some of his hard boiled egg. However, he gave it to me because he didn't like the yellow part lol but lucky for me because that's actually my favorite part.
