full moon, empty heart

construction, contruction, construction!! that's all i hear nowadays. the koreans love to work 7 days a week. there's nothing like waking up on a sunday morning at 8am to a saw. it's sunday, people. take a freakin' rest. the building is begining to take shape and i think its going to be a church. yes, a church right in my backyard. perhaps its a sign. from the looks of it, its going to be fairly big. they're even building what i think is a giant parking garage next to my apartment building which is connected to the church thats behind my building. more on that as it progresses…

princess and i attempted to complete operation transtot. however, it was a slight bust due to the fact i couldn't find the flyer for the transgender bar. all we could remember was that it was close to carrefour. we decide to stroll around jungang dong hitting all the stationary stores that came into our path. its fun having someone come to my hood. at one store i almost ended up buying a 5,000 won [$5] pencil that i thought was 500 won. i opted out of the purchase. we went to one of my favorite places which i simple call "the batcave". we ordered a pitcher of beer, a plate of fries, sweet and sour chicken, and a fruit plate all for 18,000 won. can't beat that. princess amazed me with her great reading ability. the menu was in korean. even our waitress commented on it. while enjoying our meal we decided that operation transtots would have to be aborted this time. we now had operation boardtot. we set out to hit up the boardgame room for a night of gaming. we found one place that was also a pc room. score. however, the gods were not on our side that night and no sooner had we stepped inside when the guy came running over to us making the the infamous "x" sign with his arms. boardtots had been aborted. there was only one thing to do. operation transtot was set back in motion. off to carrefour we went. along the way we had some girls run after us just to say hi. it never ends. we left the lively jungangdong and headed into sleepy ansan new town, my old hood. we circled carrefour with no luck. once again operation transtot was set aside. at this point we were both sort of beat so we headed back to my pad. i took princess along the scenic route so she could see the houses. the houses are a much better sight at night.

we had an early start to our sunday thanks to the workers. we made plans to meet up with bc at noryangjin station at one. the majority of the morning was spent trying to motivate ourselves. before jumping onto the train we stopped at dunkin donuts. i suckered myself into trying the iced blueberry white chocolate. why am i such a sucker for blueberry things. it basically tasted like mik with blueberry flavoring. so not good. on the train princess tried to spruce my drink up abit my adding some coffee to it. as i tried to close the lid i managed to shoot a load of whip cream onto the woman next to me. she didn't noticed and princess and i couldn't stop laughing. lunch was had at a tofu restaurant. its actually a chain but quite good. after lunch we set out to find sayuksin park which happens to be one of the things on "the klist of things to do" that i compiled for bc and i. we strolled around the grands. there's a good view of the han river. there are also some tombs. i busted out my 35mm to take pictures. i can't tell you how long its been since i used it. it felt good.

on the way back to the train station we stopped in at artbox. bc helped pick out my new pencil case. its a mini-case. i needed to downside. its "super panada, i believe i can fly". its got some great quotes on it like "alcohol is my soulmate", " let's party like rock stars!", etc. now you understand why i couldn't say no.

fun fact:
40: thats how many people we counted wearing socks and sandals in a time span of 5 mins.

be well…
