STAIRSsSsS

Stairs!! They are everywhere here in Seoul!

Seriously.

I think i took like a dozen to a gazillion photos of different stairs to where i was going.

Small stairs. Big stairs. Wide Stairs. Steep Stairs.YONSEI Stairs. Sexy Stairs Even.

*I promise to post those later. Have to buy a card reader first. I hate my school for not having bikes around.-_- YONSEI!!!!!!

I guess thats what sums my most of my day today going around seoul.

I went to Yongsan Market to buy this Electronic Dictionary that translate Korean-English and vice versa. What's interesting is that the models here is cheaper than what i've bought from China.

So i'm here guessing. It's either korean models are low quality or i just got duped back in China and bought an over expesnive dictionary.

Anyways, going back. Yes Stairs. Everything that happened to me today happened with some stairs around.

Scene 1
When i got lost in subway near Itaewon, i tried asking some people around for directions. Unfortunately i forgot people here speak little English.
Chinese did not help either.
Luckily, there was this German Lady and her CUTEEEE little kid spawning out of nowhere.

and guess what. From the stairs going down to the subway! yeah boi, and they did talk some good english.

So i guess what happened next is kinda boring if i'm still going to type it all down. I asked for directions and they happily guided me to Yongsan Market via Yoksu, Oksu and some other Su. bla bla bla

Scene 2

I saw this beautiful korean girl walking down the stairs...



...

End of story

Scene 3

Dinner time. I went to a restaurant nearby hoping to try something new. Yes, my Korean is still kinda bad, so i had to do stares, finger pointing, and charades to get what i want. Anyways, so i was in this restaurant trying to order something, however, the menu had no pictures. Only Words! So what was a guy like me supposed to do in that situation? i stood their opened my chinky eyes, and stared blankly.

lol

Well, that did kinda work since there was this guy that bailed me out and talked to the oyagi for me. Translated what i wanted to say and got me an OX Something soup(that supposed to taste really really good).

Reminded me the other night when a couple bailed me out when i was ordering some kimchiboekembap and manduk something dumplings.

Blank stares FTW.

and there are not stairs in this story. I just wanted to share


Yes, stairs stairs and more stairs. After this trip, im going to have buns of titanium and something else.

p.s. oh yeah i saw f16 flying around campus while smoking out some cool colors. got to hand it to the south koreans. too much money on their hands.
