death of a party

deery-lou.
FUCKIN COLD! that's how i would describe today. the day started off early as i was meeting bc way up north to check out some sites before hitting dongdaemun for some shopping. we had a mini little adventure in the freezing cold. of course i opted not to wear the giant parka. stupid! we stumbled upon what we thought was some kind of museum but it looked ghetto so we skipped it and headed off to check out some tombs. unfortunately i can't remember the name of the place. my bad. although not like it matters. walking around it felt like a ghost town. i kept looking for tumble weeds. all i saw were pile of leaves. the statues which were on top of the tombs were the most interesting but you couldn't get close enough to see them. i took a few snaps with the old 35mm so i'll post them later. bc and i still managed to have fun. when don't we. lunch was had at a small little place run by some ajummas. the food was most excellent. from there we jumped on the subway and headed to dongdaemun, the land of shopping. we spent a few hours there. i found a coat. score!! i'm sure i drove poor bc crazy. sometimes i'm quite indecisive about things. the coat wasn't exactly what i was looking for but then again i'm not sure i knew just what i wanted. i definitely liked the cut and style of it and i got him to come down in price. although somehow i got suckered into buying a black turtleneck that he claimed would fit me. well i must say it fits—fits like a glove. not sure how i feel about tight clothes. oh well. bc and i parted ways and i headed to insadong to meet up with a friend for coffee. seeing that there are numerous starbucks in the area i waited forever at the wrong one. the fact that he didn't have a cell phone made it worse since i couldn't call. of course when he did i missed the call. oops. finally after an hour we connected at the coffee bean. tomorrow i have to go back to work. but then i will have monday off for new years. it really makes no sense but whatever.

stay gold & be well…
