Brian and I ate fresh fish by the ocean while we were in korea. it was not deboned, but it was still delicious. the bones were so tiny and delicate that it was easy to chew.

this past weekend i spent time with my dad, his new girl friend and my two brothers. my dad came down to glendale/phx for his birthday. i threw a big bbq feast. i carefully planned out my meal the day before he was to arrive. we barbequed rib eye steak, t-bone steak, brautwurst, hotdogs, corn on the cob and i made some homemade potatoe salad and fruit salad. i also bought a birthday cake from the fry's mercado. it's sorta in a ghetto neighborhood, but i love the way that they make cakes. they are almost like the ranch market and also the prices of their cakes are very reasonable. we spent most of our weekend playing with the wii. i love mario kart! well, i best be getting to bed. i've been running my ass off these couple of weeks because my family in korea fed brian and i so much that i gained 7 pounds in 2 weeks!!. yeah, freaking disgusting so i've been really watching what i've been eating and trying to stay really active. i'll leave you with pics of my aunt's wedding. she did traditional and korean.

we've been back home since sept. 20, but it took a lot of time to get adjusted again. they are 15 hrs ahead there. korea was an experience i will never forget. it's a whole different world out there. everything is so compact. we build our houses based on width they build their houses based on height. they also plant trees, fruits, and vegetables on their roof tops. another thing that i noticed that was unusual is that the kids are always in school. you could tell they were school kids because they are always in uniform. i saw kids walking home from school at around 7 or 8 at night and some of them even go to school on saturdays! one thing that i will miss the most about korea is the underground shopping, the markets, and all the fresh seafood! i was eating fresh crab for breakfast! brian and i were also in my aunt's wedding. what an experience! i hated how sticky and hot it was and how brian and i always got attacked by mosquitos. we are planning on going back in about 5 years because it's a place that i would love to visit again, but not a place i would live. i am so glad i was born in america. here's some pics for your viewing pleasure. i took over 2,000 pics.
