Seoul Searching : All that Jazz

You know what's fun? Having a zero-stress pay day for the first time in 4 months. It came and went without me even noticing to be honest. It's very good for the blood pressure and grey hairs to not have to fight every month.

This weekend had many exciting moments. Friday nights the English teachers usually go out for dinner. This Friday we went for pizza and Kenneth came with me. I like it when he meets my friends! Then on Saturday I went into Seoul for a pedicure. They are more pricey here than in Canada, which I find weird, but the lady did a very good job and it was very relaxing! After that I met up with Jean for lunch. We had amazing tacos and I drank a very large margarita. He just went on a three week tour of Cambodia and Thailand - so I wanted to hear his stories! I think I'm going to do a similar tour when I'm done my contract here.

We got a flight of 7 tacos and nachoes on the side.

On Saturday evening some friends and I went to see the broadway musical, Chicago. It was so great! We all left randomly bursting out in song in the cab ride home - which I'm sure the cabbie enjoyed.

Greek food before the show!

Jazz hands are mandatory

Sunday was a lazy day where Kenneth and I walked along the river, bought some groceries, and ate delicious burgers.

Today is Founder's Day in Korea which is a National Holiday. Jaclyn and I had signed up for a special hike where you go barefoot in red mud. It is supposed to be very healing. I thought it would be neat and peaceful. But, two days ago we got a message saying it was cancelled due to low interest. Apparently not all foreigners want to hike barefoot in mud on their day off. We decided our backup plan was to go to WINK (When In Korea) for brunch and bottomless mimosas. But, when we got to the subway station, Jaclyn became sick so she went home. I ventured into Seoul for lunch and Wonder Woman. Lunch was a thrill - I found Pizza Mall which is all you can eat pizza (plus drinks and other things like salad, pasta, fries, and desserts.) I have experienced many things here which would be great business plans in Canada, and this is one of them.

I loved Wonder Woman. I'll be honest, it might be the only superhero movie I've ever seen. I think the last one I saw was Spiderman with Toby McGuire. I just don't care about superheroes. But, this was really good. I felt good walking out of there! Plus Gal Gadot is exteremly beautiful and strong and watching Robin Wright kick ass made me happy.
