So March 22nd I turned 27 woot woot. I am blessed to see another year. I started off by being homesick because this was my first year without my friends, brothers, gramps and in a new country. But I got over that quickly. lol....I made myself a cassata cake so I brought Cleveland to Korea. And had an awesome night out with a wonderful group of ladies. They made this first birthday in Korea very special and my brother texted me majority of the night while I was out drinking and partying lmao. Will hooked me up with some new appliances and forced me to try funnel cake. Sighhh I don't see the hype lmao but I learned how to make them at home watch out now I may get me a stand at the carnivals lmao. And as always my little men took me to dinner and were on their best behavior sang happy birthday to me so that in Shawnys words I would hurry and cut the cake lmao. Last night I went to Martys which I guess is considered like an american bar and grill lol. They had buy one get one free drinks lol. Delaina and Bj would have loved those lmao. Then since I haven't been out anywhere since I got here we headed to the ville and went to Rhino for soju buckets lol. Lord Uncle Wayne you were right after almost three soju buckets I was ready to dance in the middle of street lmao. They played all the latest music I laughed at the hoochies who had on too tight dress and didn't know how to color match their panties to there outfits. Ladies if your dress is going to be showing your crouch lets invest in vicky secrets k?! lmao laughed at my girl Patrice who was mocking the break dance korea and took tons of pictures lmao. My brother, delaina and Will had a good laugh over my drunkenness. I recall sending a text to bj saying sigh I miss you I need someone to carry me home. Bwahhhhhaaaaaaa... I got home safely and fell straight into bed, at least I could still function enough to text lmao. I had will peel my boots off and then the floor started spinning lmao. Will was dying laughing he wanted to videotape me so that Bj and Delaina could see how wasted I was lmao. I text bj like dude the floor is spinning and I am sitting on it lmao. I would wait until I get to Korea to test my alcohol level but I enjoyed myself very very much. Thanks again ladies for the wonderful time and the free drinks!
So after months of waiting around trying to find a good price for the tickets that I wanted I finally got tickets to go see Lady Gaga kick off her born this way tour in Asia. And of course her first stop was Seoul woot woot. It was the best concert I have been to in my life she really puts on a great show and the Koreans love her. She had the biggest sellout since Michael Jackson came to Korea now that's saying something. They changed the age of being allowed to see her concert to 18 or older they said that he concert was to much for younger kids. So she made sure that she gave an 18 and up show I think that I have seen enough of Lady Gagas ass to last me a life time. She cussed enough for a truck load of sailors and really enjoyed herself on stage. I wasn't sure if everyone knew exactly what she was saying because she didn't speak Korean but they still cheered her on all the same. I took the train there and back which was an experience in itself since the last train stops at midnight lol. We made it home at 12:05 lol go figure. It was sooo packed and we did meet some funny guys that of course wanted to know how the concert was and then asking us if we missed America or liked Korea. Lol my favorite statement was sigh I miss golden corral americans know how to eat lol all you can eat buffets korea doesn't have that lol. Surprisingly there were a lot of them that had been to Ohio or went to penn state for two years to learn english. And then there was another older guy who only moved back to take care of his parents until they die and he said his kids ask him everyday are we going back to America I just want to go to walmart lol. I guess I am not the only one who misses Walmart. But it made me realize that no matter where they go in the world Koreans stick to traditions that us americans toss to the side. You very rarely hear of an american stopping their life for their parents because you feel as if you owe them that. I think I am blessed to have my kids grow up around people who actually have a culture that they pass down from generation to generation.
Okay so I so suck at keeping this updated and that is just because of pure laziness so it's about to be a few new posts about all of the activities that we have done to date. I took the kids to kidzania which is basically a city for kids. They are the workers they run everything and parents aren't allowed to participate. The boys are now certified firefighters and airline pilots for korean air woot woot. They got their first little bank cards which they can use in the city only and they get paid with kidzania bucks which is cool. They have a lor of food places inside also I am not to sure if they all except kids bucks but I know that if they work there like baskin robbins or mr donut they teach you to make the stuff and then you take with you what you made. All in all it was an awesome day with great friends and needless to say the boys cannot wait to go back to work. Each job lasts about 30-45 minutes and you have to sign up for either first shift which is 10-3 or second shift which is 3-9 or you can do an all day. We just did first shift so you do as many jobs as you can within that time frame. It was funny because parents are not allowed inside of the places like the bank and stuff and the boys had to create their own pin numbers and fill out forms and stuff. It really teaches them about independence. It's a very good way to teach kids about life.
