Live night again

8th February 2008

Today we went to some live show. We didn't know who was going to play that night but we decided to go because it was cheap. When we arrived there we were really surprised because there was nobody except us and the band member.

When the show started, there was one cute girl on stage and she said her friends were not coming so she prepared some karaoke to sing... but she sang just one song. I was really disappointed!! But the live was getting better and better as it went on, so when the live show finished i was quite satisfied. The last band National Pigeon Unity were especially exceptional!

Happy lunar new year

My friend Will lives in Korea but he lives outside of Seoul, so I haven't seen him for over 3 months. Finally I met him today. Since we have new years holiday for 5 days he came up to Seoul. In the evening with some other friends we hit a bar and enjoyed each others company.

We planed to go Donald's aunties house on new years day. If we were to go we needed to get up at 6 o'clock in the morning but we drank and chatted till 5 o'clock so after falling asleep we couldn't wake up one hour later... I was sad to miss the traditional ceremony.

Ski trip

Last weekend I went skiing with Donald, Richard, Scott and Gyoungmi in Yong-Pyoung. I was a little nervous since I hadn't skied for over 10 years. However after a few practice runs, I soon got into a good flow. After a fun day of skiing we stayed overnight in a town just a bus ride away from the resort. We killed time in the evening with a few hands of poker and some drinks. I won the poker game and collected the pot! That's a first for me.


The next day we woke up a little late and rushed down to the slopes. It wasn't as much fun as the first day but nevertheless I had a good day.

Dead Hongdae

From tomorrow I have 5 days holiday because Korea follows the lunar calendar. We can celebrate new years again! Since we have no work tomorrow we decided to head down to Hongdae to dance the night away. However, we hit up a club only to find an empty dance floor. We were thinking that since that since tomorrow is a holiday people would be partying tonight. I guess we thought wrong. We even hit up a few popular bars to find the same lifeless atmosphere. Giving up we returned home. Now I am sitting here writing this entry and not partying. I guess everyone is already departing for their home towns or didn't want to travel with a hangover in the morning. Sucks for me.
