How I Became THAT Weird Neighbor

This weekend I didn't have access to free wifi connections at home and it drove me crazzzzy. Before I was always able to figure out passwords, but this time, everyone has their internet on lockdown. Last night at around 10 PM I was so desperate I went over to my neighbor to the right of me and knocked on the door. A mid-aged man opened the door and I tried to explain my situation… 

I assumed that the conversation would go like this:

ME: Hi, I live one apartment over and I have recently disconnected my internet. I was thinking that maybe we could share your internet connection and I’d be willing to pay a lump sum of up to 50% of your internet bill. Since I am not home most of the time, and I do not even own my own personal computer! I would use the internet on days when I bring my work computer home, and want to just do some light browsing. I wouldn’t be a disturbance or clog up the internet speed. I think this could be beneficial for the both of us! What do you think?

HIM: Oh yeah? No problem at all! Actually, you don’t even have to pay a monthly fee, just go ahead and use our internet. The user is Unicorn [that really is the strongest network closest to me] and the password is rainbow. See ya around jolly neighbor!

In reality, it actually went like this:

Fyi this is all in Korean*

ME: Uhm, hi! I live right there *points to the next apartment over* I don’t have internet. Can I use yours? I can pay you… I’m usually not home…. I was thinking that one time per month I will give you money and we can share… internet. *Nervous laugh*

HIM: …What? Can you say that again?

ME: I’ll be back!

And by “I’ll be back” I meant "Be back never!" I think it'll be awkward for at least a month every time I pass by that guy in the hallway. 

So the moral of the story is: 

Sometimes being too desperate will get you nowhere. 

Or

Spend more time practicing and preparing. 

Or 

Don't be a cheap bastard and buy your own damn internet!

The Holiday Season Has Begun: Holiday Shopping

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving 2010 has come and gone. Here in  Korea most Thanksgiving dinners are on either Saturday or Sunday but luckily I had mine last night with good company. Since it was a buffet and I was paying a pretty penny for the food, the only logical way to get my money's worth was by bringing tupperware with me! Despite the workers circling the tables like vultures picking up empty plates, I packed up my food into my tupperware in quick desperation as if it were life or death.

With one large sized and two medium sized tupperware, I filled them up to the rim with turkey, sausage, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, bread rolls and whatever else I could not-so-discretely pack in. Why did I steal food? So I could host another Thanksgiving party tonight! And I'm not kidding...  However, this dinner is only for FBF and his younger brother, who just moved into their new apartment today. They don't have to know that I didn't actually cook the food myself. 

Black Friday

The magical portal known to man as Black Friday has opened up and I've pretty much completed my Christmas shopping for my immediate family through the glory of internet shopping. We are very much into decorating a tree, decorating the entire house, eating Christmas eve dinner, listening to Christmas radio 24/7, spending Christmas day with family and exchanging gifts. It's awesome and even though i'm not exactly a kid anymore, Christmas still gets me excited like a kid who just discovered . As early as February I started buying and collecting Christmas gifts, for my immediate family. Fortunately, my family is relatively predictable so buying gifts isn't too hard.

My personal wishlist

As an avid blogger it's ironic for me to admit this but I do not have a personal computer or wifi at my apartment. This being the main reason why I bring my work computer home often and update from work. So I want an iPad and/or Macbook. Since these are unrealistic things to put on a wishlist, I'll probably end up showering myself with these things... in the future. 

My Holiday Gift Ideas

You know what would be pooptastic? Gifts made out of poop! I was browsing through uncommongoods.com and found products made out of poop! I think my wedding invitations will be made out of a mix of panda and elephant poop to celebrate the union - the panda would represent me [my college nickname] and the elephant would represent my future monstrous mate. That's romantic. I should reconsider my career path and become a wedding planner instead. 

PooPoo Paper made from horse dung!

Even more gift ideas after the jump!

Thanksgiving 2010 in Korea

Things I’ve been pondering:

Why are there so many Canadians in Korea?

Why are Korean websites still dependent on Active-x/Internet Explorer?

After meeting someone for the first time, why do people feel compelled to ask me, “Are you North Korean or South Korean?” That’s just annoying.  

Korea's reaction to our embarrassing druggie brother from the north:

Hi Gina? Don’t worry.N. korea, alway act like that. bye-bye. from dad.

The common reaction from Koreans. Hilarious and true. From Gina's tumblr

Just like last time, and the time before that, and the time before that… Koreans and Korea seems to be fine and moving along with life as usual. Koreans are just used to their druggie older brother pulling out old tricks. So don’t worry, everyone else is fine, it’s just another Thursday… THANKSGIVING THURSDAY!  

Thanksgiving:

Last year I was so caught up with work that I completely forgot about Thanksgiving until around mid-afternoon I had received a care package from my sister filled with thanksgiving food. It was the biggest surprise of the year, I was caught completely off guard. That night I went home and ate my microwaveable Thanksgiving dinner by myself, which was delicious but depressing at the same time.

Though it would be nice to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family, we are taking the more alternative thanksgiving route this year. My oldest sister is staying in NYC, my parents are off on vacation in Turkey and my other sister is chillin at my cousin’s for Thanksgiving. So this means that my family will celebrate our second annual “Thanks Christmas” dinner on Christmas Eve and I cannot wait.

This year I’ll be chowing down on some Thanksgiving buffet at Gecko’s Garden with a group of friends. I should have brought tupperware with me... just kidding... kind of. 

Happy Thanksgiving! 

North Korea

This afternoon North Korea attacked a small South Korean island off of Incheon. I heard that one soldier has been announced dead, 4 other soldiers have been wounded and 70 homes from the island have been damaged and 14 civilians have been injured. Read other articles here 

This time, unlike the other times, I am actually worried.

Now here are some of my own opinions on North Korea:

North Korea is like South Korea's embarrassing older brother who is on drugs. He is irrational, an attention whore, and sick in the head. Despite North Korea's cry for attention and naughty behavior, South Korea provides aid to his older brother for over 10 years but North Korea still acts like a huge baby and continues to attention whore. South Korea helplessly can't do anything but be there for his stupid brother. North Korea just wants a hug, but at this point he's dug his hole too deep and nobody wants to give him that hug... kind of like Lindsay Lohan.

So do I think we'll go to war? Probably not. But its disturbing to think about what might happen in the future.

After the Korean war South Korea was in shambles. 60 years later it has risen and become one of the leading economies of the world. Right when things were headed on the right track, North Korea had to shit on South Korea's parade.

After the fall of the Berlin wall 20 years ago, Germany is still dealing with problems of reunification. Can you imagine how much South Korea will endure when the day comes that the North and South unite?  When will the day come?... if ever...

Another Korean Company Workshop

34 selected people from the company were invited to an overnight workshop last Friday to Saturday. I’ve been to several workshops and have written about workshops before, but this workshop was unlike any other workshop that I've attended.

 As you can see in the workshop schedule below, the meetings began at 7PM, and lasted until 12:30AM. Thereafter, we started our 회식/drinking festivities. The next morning at 8 am, we met for breakfast and wrapped up the workshop by noon and then went out for lunch. This is a pretty standard schedule for my company.

How to get the F-4 "gyopo" Visa

The F-4 Visa


Based on the blogs and forums and government sites that I have read, they make the process of getting the F-4 visa sound as hard the SATs and as dreadful as a pap-smear. Since my former E-7 visa is due to expire in a matter of days, it was finally time for me to switchover to the F-4 visa to simplify my life. 


The immigration office is located at Ohmokkyo (sp?) station on the purple line #5, next to mokdong. Go out of exit #7 and walk straight for like 10 minutes. You can't miss it. 


Before I elaborate, make sure you qualify for the F-4 visa and this blog is geared toward those who already reside in Seoul.



What to bring:


1. Your passport. Now don't go around scanning your passport and posting it online like this guy. That won't be in any way beneficial to your life. 

2. 6 passport sized pictures of yourself. Though I only used 2 of them for the application [you can get this done in the basement of the immigration office. Also, with the extra pictures of yourself you can stick them in really creepy places like in your coworker's coat pocket, or and tape it onto your roommate's phone, lip gloss and garage opener! I swear friends love this kind of creepy attention!] 

3. A photocopy of your birth certificate. If you have a sibling that has easy access to this information, like me, then you are in luck... otherwise this may be a big headache for you - unless your parents are really tech savvy and know how to operate a scanner and email. 


4. A photocopy of your parent's naturalization documents


5. A photocopy of your parent's F-4 identification cards [this wasn't exactly necessary, but she took it anyway]


6. Family tree - or whatever. So I read a lot about this family registry thing and got a little freaked out. I called the office and the lady said that I don't need to prepare it in advance. I was confused. I get to the office and the lady told me to go across the street to some office next to the police station to get my family registry or whatever. I gave the office lady a slip of paper and 2,000 won and within 20 seconds, she printed out the information that I needed and she sent be back on my way. 


6. The Visa application form - but you can just pick this up and fill it out at the immigration office. 


7. Make sure to bring something to entertain you. The line for the F-4 is actually pretty fast, but it's still nice to slip in some HIMYM. 


So in total it took me 4 hours including travel time but it wasn't stressful at all. So three years of hassle free residence in Korea ftw. 

Time to drink bitches!!

After giving my presentation yesterday I decided to stick around and work out of the R&D center for the rest of the day. The R&D center and the HQ are completely different. The HQ is fancier and contains all of the high level directors, VP’s, and of course our CEO so inevitably the energy is noticeably low, people don’t laugh or talk very much and a high stress level looms in the air. In contrast, the R&D center is more relaxed, down to earth and you don’t feel like you’re committing a crime by having a casual, non-work related conversation. 

Yesterday my company won a prestigious award and as usual, after any positive event, a dinner and a drink-fest follows.

 Since I wasn’t present at the HQ office I thought I was off the hook until around 7 20 pm when I got a phone call from a colleague #1 coaxing me to join them for the festivities. I declined because I was tired from taking meds out of order, causing me to fall asleep off and on for the rest of the night. I felt a little bit guilty for not joining in on the festivities, but it was just not going to happen. After the call i started to drift into a deep slumber. 

I got a second call from colleague #2 around one hour later asking me where I was. He told me that colleague #1 had to drink a cup of soju due to my absence, and that other coworkers had to drink because of me. Obviously, work was using my absence as an excuse to punish my coworkers with alcohol. I'm not doctor ordered not to drink for the next two months and my fun-self was just not present yesterday so again, I declined.

Twenty minutes later I got a call from colleague #3. This time he wasn’t coaxing me to come but he got a group of people to start singing/chanting to me and then said "OK SEE YOU TOMORROW!" and hung up the phone. To say the least, they were trashed.

Congratulations to my company, and semi-sorry that I wasn't there with you last night. 

After a good nights sleep I feel refreshed, I can’t say the same for my coworkers.

Presentation Lecture

This morning I gave a presentation about how to give a presentation in English, common idioms, proper ways to introduce yourself, business etiquette, how to cut a steak, how to use your utensils at a dinner table and how to eat soup. The last few topics were outside of the presentation description but since I’m bossy and because I had the stage I had decided that I would elaborate on basically whatever I wanted to. 

Here's a sample slide from my deck - though a bit too wordy for my audience. I'll admit, it was fun presenting, teaching and demonstrating. However, it's never a good sign if your audience is yawning the whole time and does not ask a single question even after enthusiastically asking, "Does anyone have any questions or comments?? Please...??"

The Thanksgiving Obstacle

 The first time I visited FBF’s apartment I was walking around his place when something had caught my eye. It wasn’t just anything, it was that one elusive thing that foreigners tend to dream about – a full sized oven. I gasped in delight and began professing my love for ovens… His response to my enthusiasm? “I’ve never used the oven before… we store dishes in there…it's useless!"

 He proceeded to ask me what I would use it for and I started making a list...

But in reality I suppose I would probably use the oven only once per quarter... considering that I use my stove  once every two weeks on average...

I guess I can relate because growing up, my mom never used our dishwasher for the functional purpose of washing dishes, but instead used it as storage space for snacks. Whenever friends would come over to my house I’d bring them over to the dishwasher and offer them some Gushers, Fruit Roll-ups and Capri-suns. To me and my family, storing snacks in the dishwasher was completely normal – it was otherwise just a waste of space. But let's get back to the real point...

I finally encountered a REAL oven!... Too bad FBF lives over an hour away from me. Now that Thanksgiving is around the corner I suddenly feel the need to have an oven in my apartment. I have cake mix, frosting, and even a cupcake pan... I have the ambition to roast a turkey, make that perfect casserole... the only missing element is an oven. But the reality of it is, I've lived this long without an oven, I guess overns just aren't that practical for a kitchen in Korea. So how will I roast that perfect turkey for Thanksgiving? ...I wont. But Suji's will! 

Morphed into Medusa

A big shout-out to FBF for taking care of me all day Saturday. He waited an hour and a half for me during my procedure, basically carried me home and then very patiently sat around in my apartment – reading, quietly watching TV, cleaning  – as I took a 6 hour nap. I finally woke up at 7:30 pm still feeling sick and although FBF was feeling major cabin fever, he still was very patient with me. So for that he deserves recognition.

Basically on Saturday I went in and had a colonoscopy. The strange thing was that although I was sedated, I have flashes of memories of moaning in pain while something was lodged down my throat. After the procedure I was confused about my flash backs… only later to find out that I had both a colonoscopy and endoscopy into my stomach. Thanks for the memo doc.

I was talking to Gina’s FBF who works in a hospital, and he said that watching an endoscopy procedure is comparable to watching a zoo animal in surgery because they pin your down and stuff something down your throat seemingly against your will. Luckily I don’t remember feeling any pain but the flashbacks are a teensy bit traumatizing.

So what was the result? I don’t know… because I was on meds when the doctor explained things. Even if I hadn’t been medicated I probably wouldn’t have understood him. Thankfully FBF was there to take notes and told me that I have two minor problems and two more serious problems but they are all curable by medicine and a change in my lifestyle. A change in lifestyle entails subtracting spicy foods and the following from my diet for at least two months: coffee, orange juice and CHOCOLATE. Take away anything else.. but not chocolate!! It’s especially painful with all of these pepero boxes chillin in my apartment. I found out that FBF ate a box by himself and he wouldn't let me eat even one pepero stick. Like an angry incredible hulk I morphed into a beastly and jealous animal. If you’ve ever had to deal with me begging for food… then you know how impossibly desperate I can become…

Even in Medusa form, FBF is unphased. He's a good man. 

Maybe my health problems will be the start a new and improved me. Maybe this is just what I needed. These are the signs of aging. I'm no longer a supple young teenager anymore so I really need to enjoy whats left of my youth!

CNN coverage on the G20

So I was looking at the little coverage other news agencies were doing on the G20 and came across this article on CNN.com stating that Korea has issued 50,000 police and soldiers and 6 goldfish to protect the representatives of the conference. Sounds kind of funny, and who knows, maybe those goldfish really will do some good. The goldfish have some big shoes to fill if they want to be anything like Paul the oracle octopus - rest in peace Paul. I'd say the funniest part of the article is the comment thread. CNN commenter are always so funny and catty.

As always, CNN did a great job on blowing things out of proportion. I highly doubt that these goldfish actually play a big role in their security.

G20 Seoul - Day 1

[Check-in 9 AM]
I'm going to check in throughout the day and contribute any new observations. This post will either end up being really cool, or really boring haha.

This morning I was almost late to work because I decided to take this cute lime green electric bus to work. I had never seen it before, perhaps it will only be used for the next two days. I got on the bus and there were only three people in there, the driver, a man and myself. Usually my area is packed with people fast-walking to work but not today. I turn on my camera to start documenting and the screen flashes "No memory stick" and I got this sinking feeling - that feeling you get after you realize that you left your phone at home...

I get to Coex and it seems emptier than usual. The coffee house and convenient store on the first floor are closed.  And the other offices on my floor are closed. Why can't my office be cool like theirs?

[Check-in 12:30 PM]
Since the basement of Coex is closed I had lunch across the street and then went to pick up my registered badge so I can show up to work tomorrow. However, they had complications with registration and most foreigners were denied badges. I would love to take the day off tomorrow, but that's not how my company works. Tomorrow I'll be logging in from our other office which is 45 minutes away from my home.

[Check-in 2:30 PM]
I just heard that Obama is speaking right now. 


Turns out that my badge was made and registered. I flipped my card around because it contains my info and a  horizontally stretched out picture. 

I just had to take a picture of this massive tank like thing with a man on top. The guy inside of the tank was like a celbrity, so many people were taking pictures of him and the car. I'm sure he was eating it up. He's kind of smirking in the picture.

 Around 200 police men walked past me, I had to wait until they all crossed so I could get to the bus stop on the other side of the sidewalk. Now my question is... do I feel safer even though there are hundreds of cops around me?

That is where the G20 is held. There is a fence lining around the entire Coex block. It must have been set up late last night because it wasn't there when I left work and was magically there this morning. 

[Check-in 3 PM]

Coworker and I tried to go inside of Coex. Massive fail. So really, there is not much to see at Coex unless you are participating, working there or part of the press. 

MBC News must have gotten early dibs because they have a prime spot next to the convention center. They will be filming the evening news here for the next two days. KBS has a spot across the street. Their newsroom is much larger and higher up. 

[Check-in: 6 PM]

Around 15 police guys were patrolled on our floor and asked us to leave at 5pm. Our admin requested that we stay until 8pm. Most people are leaving by 6. I left at 5:15 :) Woohoo! Too bad it's windy and pouring rain. 

11/11 Pepero Day - Day 1 of the G20

Good morning & happy Pepero day! Why is it Pepero day? Because it's November 11 (11/11) the day of... pepero sticks. It's a pretty ridiculous holiday... if I can even call it a holiday. It's more of a marketing gimmick that worked. A marketing ploy that makes Valentines day seem subtle. 

There are huge boxes of pepero, huge pepero sticks, every type of pepero you can think of sold at most stores. It's pretty crazy.

I told FBF that I wanted pretzel pepero covered in chocolate. His response? "What's a pretzel?" My response? "Don't come over on Thursday if you cant find them." We laughed. I was serious.

PS I already got him some jumbo-sized sticks. He and I both know that I'll prob end up eating it all. Mmmmm

SUPER SIZED PICTURE POST: Seoul, South Korea Hosting the G20 2010 Conference

My entries have been extra poopy lately and a little bit sad, so im going to switch gears and focus on some current events like the G20! Instead of getting too political and rambling about my opinions on things, I've compiled a super-sized post, so super-sized that I've even increased my font...  

Yesterday I walked around the coex exhibition area and snapped a bunch of pictures and I'm pretty sure that after looking through these pictures you won't have to visit Coex, not that you would want to at this point because it's about to be chaotic and now you need a press pass to enter the exhibition. 

Thursday and Friday are going to be hectic. On Friday the streets will be blocked off, parking is not allowed, the downstairs portion of Coex including most restaurants and shops will be closed, and the subway will not be stopping at Samseong station on Friday. Most offices are urged not to work and if people do choose to work, a limited amount of registered members are allowed badges. Although most offices are taking the day off, my office got me a badge... lucky me will be sitting in the cube.. blogging... or I'll be out trying to stalk Obama. 

Enough with the talking enjoy the pictures!

A traditional Korean structure covered in LEDs

 This is a cool vending machine that dispenses drinks and also takes pictures of you with G20 representatives [below] after selecting a drink it lists nutrition details and then the drink pops out FOR FREE!

Loads of pictures after the jump!

So long bowel and gas problems!

This entry is dedicated to my friends who have been there through thick and thin, even during the times when we were confined in a small space and I couldn't contain myself. Maybe this shouldn't be limited to only friends, but to anyone who has had to deal with my crop dusting problem. Those days are history.... maybe.

Yesterday I was sitting in my doctors office and as usual, he overestimated my ability to understand him and continued talking and talking about something and then urged me to get an “asdklfjlj” and in response, "I said sure I’ll get a 'asdklfjlj!'" Later I returned back to my office and begin google translating parts of this paper document that he had given me and the first word I translated was “colonoscopy.” Dammit.



For those of you who don’t know, a colonoscopy is where a doctor sedates you and sticks a 1 cm diameter tube with a camera up your butt and looks around in your gizzards. This procedure is commonly done to most adults around 50 or for younger people like me who have something rotting in their system. Le sigh.

This is where poop stops being fun. Yeah, eating bland foods… no more alcohol… those are just the basics. I guess it was just a matter of time before this day would come. I’m sure it’s not going to be that bad. Maybe afterwards I’ll stop having crazy bowel problems and I’ll start pooing like a normal person… but then what would I blog about?! 

PS Sorry if this was TMI, but cmon, there are worse things in this blog!

Dangerous Diarrhea

Maybe it's karma for talking about poo so much, or maybe the reasoning of all of my poo talk stems from an intestinal problem – but who knows. Yes, poo is usually funny and everyone has their own stories, but there is always that line where poo becomes extremely dangerous. So as an avid poo lover and advocate for openly sharing poo stories, I feel the need to share my ultimate poo-scare story.

There is great diarrhea and dangerous diarrhea. In 2005 I went to Mexico and made the mistake of drinking the water which resulted in great sickness. My sisters and cousins thought I was lame for staying in at night and not participating on all of the tour activities, only later to find out that I was actually extremely sick. The day I arrived back home I went diarrhea 15 times. 15 TIMES!! By the 15^th time I was peeing out of my ass, so it was time to head to the ER. Long story short, this had happened on Sunday night and I was beginning to hallucinate as I was blurring my dreams with reality, and then fell into a deep slumber only to wake up on Wednesday afternoon.

This past Saturday I woke up and had similar symptoms, uncontrollable diarrhea and unable to hold down water. There was nothing more in the world that I wanted at that point than to stick a cork up my butt and stop the madness. I called up my uncle and he took me to the hospital and the nurses filled me up on meds and poked around my arm to draw blood and fill me up with an IV – I have a abnormally large bruise on my arm from this. After a long nap I was functional by 5pm… still a little poopy but functional enough to make it out to the Nanoomi event, which was awesome btw.  




In conclusion, be careful when you get too poopy happy... you never know if you'll get too sick and end up sleeping for two days! 


THE END!

Yes at first it's kind of funny but isn't that just disgusting? How can a restaurant even have that on their menu...

Throw that Time Machine Away: Live in the Present!

When I hear “I wish I could go back to kindergarten/high school/college” I just can’t relate…

Going back to kindergarten sounds like a nightmare because then I’d have 16 years of more schooling ahead of me. When people say that they want to go back to kindergarten to live more simpler times, well the best remedy is to probably move to a remote island and sell bananas for a living. If I relived school I’d have to go through all of that identity crisis stuff all over again where I was in denial and thought I was a white girl, and wondered why I was the only Asian kid at my school. One time a Korean exchange student joined my second grade class and I was used as his translator. Can you imagine how disastrous this was? He would tell me these complicated phrases and I’d translate to the class, “he’s hungry!”

I POOPED IN MY BED!

It was just another Saturday morning and as I was laying in bed I was overcome with a really strange, unexplainable feeling. My bedsheets suddenly became coated with glue, paralyzing me to the bed. And then the unthinkable happened. I started pooing in my bed. The confinement to my bed disabled me from running to the bathroom and poo in the toilet like any civilized person.. I pooed in my bed. And it wasn’t just any poo, it was a huge chunka-lunka ding-dong log.   

Are we will friends?? Can you be friends with someone who pooed in their bed? 

And then I woke up. Sorry to disappoint, but I really didn't poo in my bed. 

When I woke up the first thing I thought was, "Oh god! I have to poo!!" and sprinted to the bathroom. After a few minutes, nothing had come out and gave up on that idea. The second thing I did was speed-dial fbf and let him know about my dream, despite him telling me last time, "You know, you don't have to tell me these things in such detail" but at the time I REALLY needed to share. 

He then told me that poo dreams, especially dreams of you pooing in your pants mean good luck and that you will acquire wealth. Is that a Korean thing? Do Americans believe that too? Well if that's the case, then I have no problem or shame in sharing my dream. Keep those poopy dreams coming!

Theres a hole in my boot!

Good morning!

Last night’s radio gig was very last minute but very cool. The two other commentators were awesome, and overall it was a good experience J

On Sunday as I was on my way home on a subway and talking to FBF, I had an itch on my leg and without thought I began itching it with the cap of my water bottle. I was wearing some wide-topped knee-high boots and after a few itches here and there the cap of the bottle fell off and with my awesomely slow reflexes, ended up pouring most of my water into my boot. I stood there in shock and was speechless… who does that?? As my foot was bathing in a pool of water I didn’t know what to do… do I pour the water out? should I just let the water slosh around in my boot? I got off two stops later and walked away with a small trail of water spilling out from the bottom of my boot. It was not one of my finest moments.

So please, in the case that you were considering it for future use, never itch yourself with the cap of a water bottle. It can result in a really bizarre and awkward moment.
