나는 어제 누구랑 date했어요.

date동안 kiss기회가 있었어요.

상대반이 가까이 오자마자 재가 피했어요.

근데 나는 이 사람을 돼게 마음에들었어요.  오래동안 꼬셨어요.

그러지만 나는 오빠를 항상 더 좋아할거에요.

다른사람이랑 kiss이나 관계하는게 상상을못해요.

거의 할뿐할때 뭔가..안맞아요.

느끼해요.

불편해요.

오빠는 어떻게 생각해요?

궁굼해요.

보고싶어요...

I found this from some company's website. I think it's a good framework for writing your 자기소개 (self-intro) and practicing some answers to interview questions:

How do you tell a guy you just broke up with that you want a friends with benefits type relationship without sounding like you're desperate or seeming like you're trying to get back together with him (which I'm not).

OMG Amie. So my bf had been ignoring me for a week. I had enough of it so after I went out with friends on Saturday, I went to the place he worked and demanded an explanation. You know what he said? He said he was giving himself punishment because of me. He said because I can't look into his eyes when he speaks, he can't trust me. He thinks I'm screwing around with other guys. WTF. So I gave him 2 choices. That he promise to change the way he thinks, to trust me, to NOT ignore me when he has a problem or if he can't do that then we gotta split. So he chose to split. I'm glad we're not together because I was so stressed out because of him. I just want to be friends with benefits to tell you the truth. I've always wanted that kind of relationship to begin with but never expressed this because I didn't want to scare him off. ARGH.

Shanghai

Ching knee gay wo piang yee dian.

or in other words

Can I have it for a little cheaper?

This was the most commonly used phrase during my trip to Shanghai. I had officially become the bargain Queen. If you want to see pictures, just go to my facebook profile.

Details of my trip can only be found by calling me because I am not about to sit here and write it all down. Yes I am severely lazy. But the general idea here is that it was FLAMAZING.

Singapore and Malaysia next month. I can't freakking wait.

Oh yeah, before I left for Incheon, I stopped by the GS25 across the street from the bus terminal and there was this absolutely adorable boy working behind the corner. 10 minutes later, he shows up at the bus station and asks for my number. He was so nervous. So cute though. I've never dated a younger guy so let's see how this goes. But he seems so pure. Not sure if I'm into that. I don't enjoy corrupting young minds regardless of how much of a cynic I can be.

Amie, I took the time and suffered a headache from staring at the computer screen for too long to write this entry for you. I was gonna call but I just got my phone bill and cried myself to sleep.

omg u h0ar

I really need to stop spending my money on food. It's ridiculous. I go to E-mart to buy my groceries but I end up eating street food everyday because I'm too fucking lazy to cook. So the food in my apartment just sits there for weeks, stinking up the joint.

I also find myself having a difficult time faking my enthusiasm for teaching. All I can ever think about these days is going to Seoul to party, drink, network, and career plan (not in that particular order). My mind is constantly on the what ifs and the future. Teaching's been fun but after my first visit to Seoul a few months ago, I've been longing for the big city vibe. I also enjoy not being stared at for speaking english on my cellphone. I really love Seoul. Nobody gives a shit about what you do and people are jaded and you can just do your own thing. It's an independent girl's dream location in Korea.

So what have I been doing these days? I'm starting to get more and more into the fashion scene. I went to Seoul Fashion week and had a blast. I would tell you more but I'm too lazy to write about it. Always busy during the week. Don't get home until 10pm everyday. Been going to Seoul and Busan a lot. Meeting new people. Networking with potential future employers like crazy (NOT hakwon employers oh god no). I wonder what it's like to have a relaxing weekend to myself? I wonder what it was like to sleep in late again? On second thought, this busy lifestyle ain't so bad.

I am so thankful for having family here in Korea. Because of them, I am loving this country to death and never want to leave.

So I'm at my aunt's new apartment called "Hanulche". She lives on the 26th floor (which is the highest it goes), has her own rooftop, and the whole apartment is just so sleek and modern and sexy. I am loving it and never want to leave.

I know it's been ages since I've updated but nothing fabulously new has happened. I've just done a lot of exploring and travelling, money making, money spending, etc. This winter break though, I'm going to THAILAND. More specifically, Phuket where I get to do stereotypically touristy things like ride an elephant. I'm not gonna lie, I love that kind of shit.

Oh yeah, my hakwon tried to take advantage of me but I set the record straight. I love being stubborn.

Wow, my interest in this thing has seriously died. I do have a lot to write about but am just too lazy. Amie, when the hell are u coming to Korea.
