Downtown

I apologize for my lapse in posting last week. I haven't lost anything lately so there just hasn't been much to write about. Well actually, I did leave my apartment key sitting on the park bench for about two hours yesterday. I got back to my apartment, realized I didn't have my key, and remembered it fell out of my pocket while I was reading. Luckily, it was still there when I went to get it. You must really be wondering what a guy like me is doing living overseas.

On Saturday afternoon I was in an exploratory mood so I hopped on the subway and headed downtown. I don't know why but I really enjoy riding subways. I think I could ride them all day long. There's only 2 lines here in Daegu so getting places is very simple. But if there's anyone who could get lost on a 2 line way Subway, it's probably me. I actually did go one stop too far on my way back Saturday. A simple mistake anyone could make.

I enjoyed downtown a lot. It seemed like the shops and stores went on forever and there were a lot more people than there are around here. If you get tired of shopping on the street, there's also a whole mall underground which provides a great escape from the sun. Again, I went out on a limb and ate at Burger King where I think I was approached by a member of the Korean mafia, if there is one. He sat down at my table, flashed a gold phone, and asked if I was an English teacher. I said yes and then he went outside and just stared at me through his sunglasses. I'm really not sure what it was about but I decided getting out of there was probably my best option.

I'll be going downtown again on Wednesay to play at the Open Mic at a popular foreigner bar here. I'm hoping to meet some more musicians and I'm looking forward to just playing a few tunes. It should be a good time. Alright, well my PC room time is running out so I must end this post. Hmm, I still haven't posted about those three Korean girls. I guess it will have to wait until next time.
