Sorry that i haven't updated this blog in about ten years... But it's hard to come up with new and entertaining things on a regular basis. Atleast ones that mom and dad can read about. Just joking mom and dad...
Instead, here are some pictures.
Oh, but first. Let's just talk about how lucky we are in North America to rarely have to witness our food being prepared for us. I'm sure that a Korean kitchen is really no worse than any kitchen in Canada but it's just right there in the open... looking gross. My friend Matt was so use to pulling hairs out of his food that by the time he had left it didn't even phase him. A hair here, a hair there, and keep on eating. Miss you Matt!!!
So, the other day I'm having a sandwich made across the street from my school. Usualy there's a young guy that puts the sandwiches together and he's pretty good, using plastic gloves and what not. However, an older man took my order and pulled two slices of bread out of the the toaster... bare hands. Whatever, that's cool.
As he lays out my bread some new customers come by and start talking to him. In the midsts of this new distraction he seems to have forgotten that MY SLICE OF BREAD is still under his paw and proceeds to just REST HIS HAND on top of it as he continues to carry on an indepth, life changing conversation with the new customers!!!
I mean, SERIOUSLY. That's gross. You may think that I'm over reacting... but it was a good 3 to 4 minutes. Ask DJ, he was there. However, not being able to speak Korean and despite desperate efforts to get a new piece of bread, I still ended up eating the sandwhich in the end. And, i'll be honest, it was pretty good.
Moral of the story is: Try and distract yourself while Koreans are making your food.
Okay, back to those pictures:

Oh, and PS. I met a really great guy on Sunday... but he left the country today (Thursday). My timing is killing me.
