A weekend out!

Hey! I am sooo mad that my phone is not working!!!!!!! I apologize if you tried to call or text and I did not reply, I think I know whats wrong which makes it worse! And if you did not try to contact me SHAME ON YOU!! lol just kidding. My Vonage is activated but because I can not get Internet or a phone until I get an alien registration card I will have to rely on email and/or facebook for now : ( . So Carm and I had our 1st weekend out in South Korea. We went into a part of Seoul that is called Little America, we met up with our friend Taray there. This was the 1st time Carm and I took the subway and such. We packed our bags and said a prayer and we were on our way. We met Taray at Starbucks where we met a Korean man who was hilarious! Why did he say Taray looked like Elvis Presley's daughter???? I was rolling because she looks NOTHING like her! So I guess God said "now Tasha you are laughing a bit too hard " because he then said then said to me and you, look like ummmm an Egyptian. After we told him we were from Pittsburgh he said ohhh William Penn Hotel, Ben Franklin and the Liberty Bell, I guess he was showing off his English skills a bit. We went to a reggae bar ( can you believe it) and then to a club that all the military peeps hang out at. You know I was hype because when we got there they had a KFC, Starbucks, Outback, Burger King, and a Subway to name a few, YES hungry no more!!!!!!!!!! So after we had dinner we took a nap and got ready to go out. My question is why was it poppin???? We had soooo much fun, and it was good clean fun lol. They had 2 for 1 drink specials and all, good times. So we are out at the military club and there are all types of people there White, Black Asian, and even a few Mexicans in there, all foreigners alike. We are walking thru and why does this German dude roll up on me and this was our convo:

German dude: " Oh yes I like your belly"

Me: "What did you say?!?!?!!?"

German dude " Yes, Yes I like your belly"

Me: "Get away from me"

I was sooooooo MAD, like omg what is wrong with him?!?!? So, he goes over to Carm and says to her:

German dude:" I like your friend's belly, all the women here are not shapely, not womanly at all but her nooooo"

Carm:"Dont EVER say that to another American woman again in your life!"

German dude: " Ohhh was that bad? Im sorry"

So after being called fat I must admit I was a little salty to say the least but I still had a great time. The only thing that was sooooo strange is that you would think, oh ok there are not a lot of Americans here and not a lot of Black Americans so all the foreginers would be friendly for the most part, umm that was not the case at all! Talk about mean mugs?? I mean I know we are internationaly fly but geez lol no nasty looks needed, that was the only negative on the weekend. We then went to our hotel room (the subways stop running in Korea at midnight) and called it a night or an early morning shall I say.

So after being here for 1 whole week there are some things I have learned early about Korea and Koreans the list is below...enjoy lol.

1.Koreans will say WHATEVER comes to their brain! Ex: "Buy now and leave" That is what a man said to Carm in the store

2. Koreans LOVE Hines Ward!!! Ex: " Ohhhhhhh Pittsburgo? Hines Wardoooo!!!! yay!"

3.Koreans also love Obama they will often start to chant when they see a balck person " O -BA-M A. O-BA-MA"

4. They give themselves "American names", like James, Julie, or Oliver now, you know your name is not no dang gone Oliver!

5. Koreans know how to say what they want to say! For example Carm and I went to dinner these 3 Korean men say " ummm English noooo good" We say ohhh our Korean is no good he then says "phone number??? boyfriendo?" I was rolling!

6.Koreans eat A LOT and will try and feed you until you bust!

Still Seoul Searching...
