I'm still alive!

Fear not world! I am still alive. I've just been a bum and haven't been updating. Anyhoo what have I been up to you ask? Well work has been the same ole same ole. Go to work at 2, plan for two hours and then work until 10. Come home, grade papers, go to bed, repeat. Weekends are usually spent out with friends. Fun fun fun.

This past week was a little special though. Why? Because it was a holiday meaning we had Friday off! WOOHOOO!!!!!!!!

Diana finally made it safely to Korea and spent the weekend at my place. Another woohoo!

At night we went out with my coworkers but during the day we wandered around Seoul.

We managed to see Gyeongbok Palace. Now, I've been there before, but it was at night so seeing it during the day was a totally different experience. It was so picturesque and seriously looked exactly like it came from a period piece drama.



Don't let the picture fool you, they're real people!

Big drum BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM


Reunited and it feels so goooooooooooooood!

Since Diana was here this weekend it was the perfect excuse to see Ms. Stephanie. We all did Camp Adventure in Korea two years ago and it was the first time all three of us had seen each other together since. It was definitely a lot of fun.

As the day continued we managed to make our way to Yeouido. This past weekend there was a fireworks festival thing in Yeouido. The fireworks were pretty amazing but the lame part was that A. there were trees in our way and B. there were soooooooo many people around. Oh well, I am determined to see fireworks again sometime soon (perhaps New Years???).

Anyway these two things were probs the highlight of the weekend. Long weekends are always fun but it SUCKSSSSSSSS going back to work on Monday. Oh well. I leave you with some fabulous eye candy. Or should I say eye foody?? Eye desserty? I don't know..
