Jimjawhat?

Sup
I just had a really enjoyable weekend in Incheon, Friday, and Seoul, Saturday.  On Friday I went out to a Korean bbq with some of my foreign friends.  We ordered some kind of pork thing and when they brought it out it looked like a huge strip of bacon.  Sure enough after we cooked it up it tasted just like bacon.  The bacon was wonderful along with the soju and beer.
For those who I havent explained soju to yet, it is this real cheap alcohol that is similar to vodka but not as strong.  It tastes terrible as a shot but I still do it.  However, the best part about soju is that you can mix it with anything, and when I say anything, I mean anything.  For example I mix it in my beer and it still tastes amazing. 
After dinner we went out to a bar in Incheon in the Bupyeong district.  The bar was lots of fun and filled with other foreigners, but me and my buddy Stu decided we wanted to experience the "real Korea."  Whatever that means.  So we wandered around and found a bar that was filled with all Koreans and thought that place would be a good spot to go.  It was really no different from the last bar but they had popcorn at this place.  Whew!!  Im not sure if it was the booze, but me and Stu swear it was the best popcorn in the world, not really sure why though.  Anyway we decided to call it an early night and took a cab home around 430 or 5.
Saturday night I planned to meet some people from the previous weekend at a subway stop on the way into Seoul.  This may not sound eventful but it in fact was.  I currently do not have a cell phone because I need my alien registration card first, hopefully Ill have it by next week but who knows.  So, we have to make plans in advance via facebook or skype.  I had never met anyone at this station so I wasnt sure how long it would take.  I arrived a little after the planned time and me and Stu had no idea where anybody was.  We werent sure if people had left or not.  We decided to wait and they eventually showed up, "caught in traffic' aka "Im a girl."
After that mini adventure we went to eat at an Irish pub, had my first hamburger since Ive been here and it was oh so good.  After dinner we went to a mini concert at another bar.  The girls we were with knew the guys in the band.  A mini dance party broke out after the band played.
We ended up heading to a jimjabong  around 5 or so.  The jimjabong, or bath house, experience was definitely one of a kind.  We got there and they gave us lockers and pajama like gear to change into.  After we but on our pajama clothes we went to find the sleeping area.  Unfortunately we went into the wrong room and there were a buncha naked Korean guys just chillin.  There were like some spas, saunas, and hot tubs filled with naked Koreans.  A little much to handle when your hammered and looking for somewhere to sleep.  We eventually made it out to the sleeping area.  It was basically 2 floors, about the size of a basketball court, filled with mats.  However, we arrived later and all  the mats were filled up so we slept on basically potato sacks, in the busy area with lights and a tv on.  In other words, not a good sleep.  The girl who had been there before said that its not bad if you can find the mats to sleep on.  All I could think about when i woke up was, "Did I really just pay to sleep on the floor with lights on and people talking."  Answer = yes.  Oh well, it was better than trying to head home that late and it was pretty cheap.
Til next time
