So its been a bit since I've blog- this I know, but I compare it to a bf/gf relationship. Everything is all sexy and new in the beginning and then it fades and seeing each other naked is no longer exciting. Its not like I can say "Hey Seoul, go put on something slutty for me and dance around" You see, this is a luxury I don't have... so sorry Korea, but you are no longer sexy. For example, when I was down in Busan for my birthday we were eating eel and when the first few pieces hit the grill the little eel parts curled up and moved, I should have been frightened, but not this Lindsey, this Lindsey just put it in her lettuce with some red sauce and said "MASHI-TA" like a true Korean champ. Another example is getting a car-- pause for reaction-- I was a bit scared the first few times, but soon I had my shitty speakers cranked up, rolling around in the Sonata honking back at the assholes who were honking at me. In case your wondering, no one even notices how horrible of a driver I am because Seoul is like 'the mekkah' of shitty drivers. Anyways, back to the my relationship with Korea- Where has our spark gone? How do we rekindle this love? I'll tell you one thing, the bug situation is a big turn off in our relationship. I saw a monster of an insect the other day crawling in our office at work and I grabbed my coworker and starting freaking out thinking that it was some deadly bug waiting to put me to rest- turns out, the thing was A CRICKET!!... like it was no big deal to them....well let me tell you Koreans it was no Jiminy Cricket!- there was nothing 'Jiminy' about it. And not to mention, the fruit flies in my kitchen might as well be paying rent- also, I'm pretty sure two lucky fruit parents have just birthed a new family tonight, congrats on their 2 million little ones. However, on the bright side of things I am starting to pack for my much awaited 2 week vacation to Laos. I have heard nothing but amazing stories from friends and fellow bloggers about it so maaaybee...just maybe... it will spice up the Asian-love, thus helping me build up my relationship with Korea -because hunny we have 8 more months left together. So, GO KIMCHI! GO SOJU! and go all you little cute black haired kids with your adorable Konglish- Lindsey loves you. xoxoxox
