Minaz has Left the Building (for Good)

There he goes...after 2 weeks in Seoul split up by a week in Boracay and 2 more in Thailand, Minaz is now back in Canada...just in time for Thanksgiving. I got to admit I was pretty excited to see him come out here and the times in the bars were pretty fun...however he also reminded me of home a little too much and how much I miss my family there. Also, he was staying at my (studio) apartment, so I had to watch it when I stepped out of bed (as his was right next to it...on the floor). The guy had amazing stamina to go out every night too. I can do that for a time, but not really while working everyday as well.

A few things I'll remember from this trip:

(i) Minaz found a new pronunciation for 불고기/bulgogi: 'boogie boogie'. Nice one.
(ii) If a girl touches her nose in the club it may be a signal for her friend to come and save her from the moron trying to dance with her (that moron may have been me).
(iii) If you visit a girl at Osan Air Base make sure you don't stay there past curfew or you and she will be arrested; you'll be escorted off the base and find the only strip bar in Korea; and she'll get a talking-to by her C.O.
(iv) The song that encapsulates this tour is "Got What You Need" by Eve...I had no idea what the lyrics were until just now.
(v) If you get a number like 02-678-1678 it may be fake.


Mmmmmmmmm....Kalgooksoo! Minaz's last meal here.


Minaz is on da bus...and my thumb is in the picture. Dooough!

Ok, busy day. Later.
