Korea!!!!

I am officially in Korea. First off Korean Airlines was AMAZING. We were served 2 whole and delish meals. We all had our own interactive tv type things (I watched 4 movies and listened to all sorts of music). The bathrooms were kept clean. I even managed to sleep for about 3 of the 15 hours! With the exception of my feet swelling up like a pregnant ladies, the flight was awesome and did not seem like 15 hours.

Then we went to the hotel, where I got my own room ^_^. 9 of us PCTs went out to dinner with the one girls Korean friend. Man alive, was it delish. We had a sea food smorgasbord that was sooo fresh, it was literally in the sea that morning. I will most def miss sea food when I get to Mongolia. Back at the hotel, I had a message waiting for me from my good friend Sungho. So I called him back only to find that he was waiting outside the hotel!!!!!! It was sooooooooooo nice to see a familiar and friendly face. We hung outside the hotel for about and hour, just talking, it was great. Then we said our goodbyes and I went to sleep.

:::KNOCK,KNOCK,KNOCK::: random Korean probably asking to clean

O_o ?!?!??!?!?/1!?!??aea9ehfq ehr :::spaz::: That's right. I obviously didn't set my alarm correctly and thus woke up at 1:34pm missing any chance I would have had to see more of Korea. Thankfully, they let my check out without having to pay any charges (we had a noon check out time, though I was later told it was actually a 2pm one). And the woman behind the counter gave me a little souvenir. It was so nice, especially since she had been helping me out all along (my key would never work O_o).

For food I just grabbed something from a nearby minimart, where I amused the cashier by informing him that my name was the same as the name of a Korean beer (Cass). I took some pictures that I will eventually have to figure out how to upload, so for the moment there are no visuals.

Now, I'm at the airport waiting to fly to Mongolia!!! I'm nervous for real now :::gulp:::

Meanwhile, I had a dream that I met the Beatles last night, and I thought "Man! I have to tell Cassandra!" Then I woke up and realized it was obviously a dream. o_O
