Bret's weekend!
Well I had to work for about 2 hours on saturday so that sort of thwarted any intentions to do anything solid with my day...and after recovering from my tequila adventure on Friday...I basically decided to lay low...well that was the initial suggestion to my inward self...then the two little Japanese girls from across the building called...they work in a Japanese Hagwan and are about 22 and 23...they aren't the cutest things in the world but they are more fun than most of the korean girls that are around...so they heard about this new club in Hyundai and called to see if I wanted to go...I agreed, went, drank, wrote a blog while there, danced...went home...nothing really special...I guess the only thing that was special...was that I was in Seoul...that was the specialness...I think for the first time in a while..I sort of slipped out of me and realized that I was in a strange country that I would never see again with strange people...I remember being on the dance floor and looking around and noticing that I was the only non-asian and that no-one cared...and I didn't care...I was natural in it...I was sleeping comfortably beneath the blanket that this place had provided me with...I started to think that this place might be a place I want to spend my life...I have never felt more at peace then while I have been here...I 've never been this much of a rock-star...I have never seen or done so many things that are of value...But, that was the moment...reality always comes back to rip that cover off and explain that you can't eat double chocolate mousse forever...you'll get sick...
On Sunday I went shopping with Su Yun...I bought a whole bunch of stuff for me...some kick ass shoes and my first ever pair of jeans...which still don't fit by the way..and now I remember why I never bought jeans in the first place... my thighs are like kegs and I don't like tight clothing around my legs......I got some hot hats and took some photos...I also started making a list of things I want to buy for other people...there are so many people that I want to buy things for...but am worried that the more stuff I buy the less personal it will really be and the more waste of a time it will be for me...because I only have one day off per week...and it would take like 3 days to get all this crap I want to take home to people and some of it is by chance gifts...like baseballs from a korean baseball game...so I don't know...people will get stuff...then I went home...and Su Yun...the love of my last two months here...God she rules...if she only spoke English or had breasts...but she took me to her house...as her parents were out on the town and she cooked me chinese food...GOOD CHINESE FOOD! not that crap I used to eat at Ming Ming's which I thought was good...the chinese food I have had here is..holy hell...good...then she ripped The Matrix: Reloaded off the Interent and loaded it up on her computer/tv combo and we watched it while she gave me a massage...Korean women...dear God! you ask me what I will miss the most...the freedom, the children, the money (lol), the urban life, my favorite bar NOPE!...the women......BTW did anybody else think that that movie was horrible...it was atrocious...I hated the pretentiousness (sp?) of the story line...I mean come on...the beauty lay in the simplicity not in some psycho interpretation of what isn't real...I despised it for it's arrogance...and that stupid dance scene which was some rediculous attempt to take urbanites from every culture and show us some sort of eutopian human ritual...is that our eutopia...dry humping on a dirty floor with magma coming up around us....and tha t fight scene in the hallway..what the hell was that...jesus...me and ten bowling pins could have shot that crap...this blog got long..i'm gonna write another one....umm...................................now
